SURGICAL APPROACHES TO THE KNEE JOINT

LEROY C. ABBOTT M.D.1 and WALTER F. CARPENTER M.D.1

1 Department of Surgery, Division of Orthopaedic Surgery; Department of Anatomy of the University of California Medical School

In this article the writers describe the anatomical details of the surgical approaches which they have found to be the most successful in operations upon the knee joint. This judgment is based upon their clinical experience and that of their colleagues (including a study of motion pictures taken while operations upon this joint were being performed), upon a comprehensive review of the available literature on the subject, and upon a survey of a number of dissections performed on cadavera and freshly amputated specimens.
