Clearing a blind spot in knee arthroscopy: popliteal bursa

초록

Each arthroscopic portal to the knee has a blind area that cannot be inspected directly. In particular, visualization of the posterior compartment is difficult to access. Although arthroscopic procedures for the posterior compartment of the knee joint have been developed through posteromedial, posterolateral and posterior trans-septal portal, the popliteal bursa remains as an area that is difficult to access and manipulate. We report a surgical procedure that can examine one of the blind spots in knee arthroscopy, popliteal bursa.
