Evaluating our cases whose entrance qualifications were strict there was found no difference between debridement and wash-out in Grades I and II, but in Grades III and IV debridement clearly showed its superiority . When we look against time, it shows that wash-out really is of little use and debridement kept half the knees very well for four years. there afterwards tails off markedly. Debridement is a good stop-gap procedure in patients which are properly selected. it has no place in the treatment of patients with osteoarthrosis with unstable knees and angular deformity.}, number={5}
