Video of arthroscopic loose body removal from the knee


Loose bodies can play a cat & mouse game with the surgeon. Here you see 2 loose bodies of diametrically opposite sizes within the same knee joint & the video clearly shows how both can be removed with ease arthroscopically. Left alone these loose bodies cause recurrent episodes of locking & in the long run lead to early knee arthritis.
