Posterior condylar cam lesion is an impingement which limits hyperflexion and may be an early clinical finding prior to bearing dislocation and wear. The α-angle is a marker showing the severity of this cam lesion. This problem can be overcome using intraoperative fluoroscan views during cam excison and replacing the femoral component in 105° knee flexion.
The combination of arthroscopic subtotal synovectomy and radiosynoviorthesis can be an effective treatment modality for chronic non-specific synovitis of the knee.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
