The view that postoperative treatment is unnecessary after arthroscopically controlled operations is mistaken. On the contrary, the success of an arthroscopic operation depends to a large extent on effective after-treatment. Arthroscopic operations can be divided into three main groups: Group I Partial and complete meniscectomies, removal of floating bodies, plica resection, lateral incision of the retinaculum Group II Synovectomy, shaving, and chondroplasty Group III Meniscus refixation, replacement of the anterior cruciate knee ligament.
