Flexible arthroscopy improves anterior visualization of the capitellum compared with a conventional 30° arthroscope: a cadaveric study

Arthroscopy of the elbow joint is usually performed with a 30° view. Stability tests, structural assessments and pathologies are described with this scope. Due to the anatomy of the distal humerus and the arthroscopic accessibility, the assessment of the capitellum, particularly with regard to carti...

Descrizione
Riassunto:Arthroscopy of the elbow joint is usually performed with a 30° view. Stability tests, structural assessments and pathologies are described with this scope. Due to the anatomy of the distal humerus and the arthroscopic accessibility, the assessment of the capitellum, particularly with regard to cartilage damage, is limited in terms of dimension and depth. Arthroscopy with flexible optics in the range of 15° to 90° has not been routinely performed. The aim of the study was to investigate whether the use of flexible optics offers advantages in the assessment of the capitellum.
