Arthroscopic Lysis of Adhesions With Manipulation for Management of Late-Presenting Stiffness After Total Knee Arthroplasty

摘要

Arthrofibrosis is a known complication of total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Closed manipulation is the treatment of choice for arthrofibrosis within 90 days of TKA. Treatment for arthrofibrosis that has failed prior interventions remains controversial, and the role for arthroscopic lysis of adhesions has not been examined for late-presenting arthrofibrosis.
