| Summary: | Osteochondromas are relatively common benign bone tumors that, when located intra-articularly, can cause severe joint pain, mechanical symptoms, and functional limitation. Classically removed with an open approach, the development of a less-invasive surgical technique for the removal of this lesion can aid in decreasing future morbidity for these patients. This Technical Note describes a surgical technique for arthroscopic excision of intra-articular osteochondromas, combining precision, adequate visualization, and a minimally invasive approach. |
