Arthroscopy of the knee is an essential diagnostic aid for difficult knee problems. It is safe and is indicated especially in the problem knee of adolescents, where it is most undesirable to remove a normal cartilage; in litigation cases; in the post‐surgery knee problem; in planning surgical procedures; and in surgery on professional sportsmen.
