The Utility of Different Types of Implants in Repairing Knee Joint Posttraumatic Lesions

Abstract

Traumatic lesions of the knee joint represent one of the most frequent lesions, found especially in young, active people. The most often structures affected are menisci, cruciate ligaments, and cartilage. Identifying of new reconstructive techniques and implants for the treatment of these complex lesions represents a constant challenge for orthopedic surgeons. Our paper tries to present the utility of some implant techniques along with our experience and the results obtained in our clinic.
