Abstract

The 5 patients, who had severe limitation of knee motion following open operative procedures, and were treated by the percutaneous release of adhesions under arthroscopy, were reviewed. The range of the knee motion and function were markedly improved. Therefore, intra-articular release of adhesions under arthroscopic control was assumed very useful.
