[The importance, indication and operative technique of dorsal synovectomy of the knee joint in rheumatic diseases (author's transl)]. 1976

K Tillmann

From a logical basis, it is reasonable to postulate that a synovectomy must be maximally as complete as possible. The indications and operative technique of radical synovectomy of the dorsal part of the knee joint are presented. The statistically significant improvement of the results of knee synovectomy by an additional dorsal approach is referred to.
