Recent advances and developments in knee surgery
I
n recent years there have been many advances and developments in all orthopedic disciplines and knee surgery is no
exception. These advances and developments in knee surgery have been due to our better understanding, and in turn
better management of arthroses, fractures, and ligamentous injuries of the knee. These have been coupled with advances in
our understanding of biomechanics as well as joint and ligament reconstruction, and arthroscopic surgery. Aspects of these
important developments will be included in this session.
