Abstract

Successful treatment of knee joint disease requires an accurate diagnosis. In addition to a differentiated history, clinical examination is the most important component in the diagnosis of knee joint diseases. The present video explains the common provocation and functional tests that are used in the basic clinical examination of the knee joint. In addition to general inspection and palpation, the focus here is on the individual region's patella, menisci, cruciate ligaments and collateral ligaments. The present methods of basic clinical examination allow a structured approach to clinical issues and can be a good basis for the diagnosis of knee joint diseases, if supplemented by further specific and individual tests.
