 The knee joint is often and quite rightly called the most complicated joint in the body. It is not astonishing that this makes the knee prone to attrition and injuries. Nowadays the life quality is connected to permanent mobility more than ever and sports are the most popular leisure time activities. Especially with sports the most knee injuries occur - even outside the ski season.

Why must be operated at all? Since the meniscus both a shock absorber, as well as a surface magnification function, each resection leads to a long-term präarthrotische deformity.

In knee replacement surgery, a damaged knee is replaced with an "artificial knee joint". The worn ends of the bones are replaced with metal and plastic parts. Such a prosthesis is necessary when the articular cartilage has become severely damaged or worn away, a condition which leads to pain or other discomfort when the normal working of the knee joint is disrupted, i.e. when there are reductions in the joint's range of motion or when the knee joint is malpositioned.

If by malposition of the patella (kneecap) too much pressure on the lateral patella facet is exercised, this can lead to cartilage wear and tear with subsequent bone loss and severe pain. To minimize pressure load, a lateral Retinaculumspaltung performed.

The operation after Blauth is a corrective measure for severe malposition of the patella with or without patella. This is the approach of the patella tendon (Patellasehne) on tibia inwards. This is the kneecap in its slipway after medial (inside) has been postponed. The Blauth after surgery is usually performed when the lateral Retinaculumspaltung not sufficient success to be achieved.

The knee is made up of two chambers or compartments (only one of which may be arthritic). This treatment involves a partial metal implant to the damaged joint, similar to a dental filling. This filling effectively stops the progress of osteoarthritis, while saving the intact ligaments, cartilage and bone structure. The advantage of this approach is that preserves the natural sensitivity of the knee. Another advantage of this joint preserving approach is that a “bone reservoir” is preserved.
