Arthroscopic knee surgery in Turkey
Abstract
Arthroscopic surgery is one of the routine procedures in orthopaedic surgery departments in our country. Meniscal excision, meniscal repair and anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction are among the most common procedures of arthroscopic surgery. However, the frequency and the preferred techniques of these are not well known. In an attempt to evaluate these points a questionnaire to 46 orthopaedics and traumatology centers were sent and 26 of them accepted to participate to this study. In these centers 16175 surgical arthroscopic procedures were performed. Among the 2278 anterior cruciate ligament reconstructions, 42.4 % of them were performed by single incision artroscopic surgical technique and 37.7 % were performed by mini arthrotomy. The number of meniscal repairs in these centers were 382 and in most of these repairs inside-out technique was preferred. We believe that this study contributed in evaluation of the techniques that were used in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction and meniscal repair in our country.
