Does knee osteoarthritis become arthroscopic minimally invasive operation useful? How does knee osteoarthritis treat well?

Knee arthritis is a degenerative disease based on joint changes. Most patients in the middle-aged and elderly people, its symptoms are knee swelling heat pain, pain up and down stairs, knee pain and discomfort when sitting up and walking, sometimes accompanied by swelling, joint bounce, joint effusion, such as not timely treatment or informal treatment, will cause joint deformity, disability. Joint diseases such as synovitis of knee joint, ligament injury, meniscus injury and free body of knee joint are also common in the knee joint.

Arthroscopic cleaning surgery is like a vacuum cleaner, which can remove substances associated with joint pain in the knee cavity, such as cartilage fragments, wear particles, inflammatory factors, crystals, etc. For patients with early and middle stage knee osteoarthritis, and there is no obvious knee deformation, If there are mechanical symptoms such as loose body, meniscus tear and displacement, patella poor trajectory, synovial disease, etc., arthroscopic removal of loose body, cleaning of meniscus fragments and hyperplasia of synovial membrane can have better results. When meniscus problems exist at the same time, repair or excision can be performed. The postoperative symptoms can be improved theoretically, but the duration may not be certain, and the prognosis is not good. However, for patients with severe knee osteoarthritis, heavy joint space wear, joint deformation or mobility disorder, arthroscopic clearance is of little significance, the prognosis is poor, and even affects the intelligence and life of the patients. At this time, joint replacement is recommended, which is better for the patients.
