Abstract

This paper describes the research behind a part-task approach to both the development of, and the training offered, by a virtual reality simulator for knee arthroscopy. An ethnographic approach has been taken to examine the nature of task performance and the current training of the arthroscopic diagnosis of the knee. This Human Factors research is used to support the development of WISHKATS. The design addresses the challenge of technically producing haptic feedback for a knee surgery simulator whilst offering sufficient fidelity to train the necessary skills and conform to traditional surgical training.

[Indications and techniques for wrist arthroscopy].

After considering the anatomy of the wrist, the technical requirements for wrist arthroscopy are discussed. This method is used as an additional diagnostic procedure and staging procedure as well as a therapeutic technique. Complications, which are rare, most commonly involve nerve irritation, damage to cutaneous nerves and extensor tendons. Lose bodies can be removed arthroscopically, however, arthroscopically assisted fracture treatment or the removal of ganglions are uncommon. Approaches are lateral and oriented on the extensor tendons or other anatomical landmarks. Arthroscopy is especially useful by carpal instability as it offers many possibilities, not only diagnostically but also therapeutically.

[Percutaneous perforation of the posteromedial capsuloligamentous structures to avoid cartilaginous damage due to arthroscopic intervention at the medial meniscal posterior horn in narrow joints].

THE PROBLEM: Irreversible cartilaginous damage to the femur and tibia due to resection and suture instruments in arthroscopic surgery at the posterior horn of the medial meniscus in narrow knee joints or in the presence of contracted medial capsuloligamentous structures. THE SOLUTION: Enlargement of the medial joint space by repeated percutaneous perforation of the posteromedial capsuloligamentous structures under consistently applied valgus stress. SURGICAL TECHNIQUE: With the knee joint almost in full extension and with simultaneous, uniformly applied valgus stress, repeated percutaneous perforation of the posteromedial capsuloligamentous structures with a sharp-tipped cannula until perceptible enlargement of the medial joint compartment is achieved. POSTOPERATIVE MANAGEMENT AND RESULT: Uneventful healing of the posteromedial capsuloligamentous structures without the need for any special postoperative treatments.
