Abstract

Commentary: “An Imaging Overview of the Posterior Septum of the Knee and Trans-Septal Portal Procedure: Normal Anatomy, Indications, and Unique Imaging Considerations”

Highlights

  • Knee arthroscopy has allowed surgeons to treat a variety of pathologies with minimally invasive maneuvers compared to traditional open approaches[1,2,3,4]

  • The posterior trans-septal portal (TSP) technique involves the creation of a connecting accessory pathway through the posterior septum of the knee that separates the posteromedial and posterolateral compartments[4,6]

  • We provide a more general overview of the TSP technique with references to this article and the current literature

Summary

Introduction

Knee arthroscopy has allowed surgeons to treat a variety of pathologies with minimally invasive maneuvers compared to traditional open approaches[1,2,3,4]. Access to the posterior compartment remains a challenge with traditional anterior portals in arthroscopic knee procedures[5,6]. The posterior trans-septal portal (TSP) technique involves the creation of a connecting accessory pathway through the posterior septum of the knee that separates the posteromedial and posterolateral compartments[4,6].
