The operating instrument and the arthroscope are alternately operated between the inner and outer entrances of the knee.

The synovial tissue seen under the microscope was completely removed. Finally, the arthroscope was inserted into the posterior space of the knee joint through the intercondylar fossa. The posterior and posterior lateral entrances were used to clean the synovial membrane in the posterior and posterior lateral space of the knee joint. Thoroughly flush the joint cavity and stop the blood with radiofrequency. Liquid knife synovectomy: It is the process of injecting drugs into the joint cavity instead of surgery.
