Abstract

This is a comprehensive review of complications that can occur with common knee surgical procedures. Procedures have been grouped into arthroscopic & soft-tissue knee surgery, articular cartilage restoration procedures, osteotomy, and arthroplasty. As newer implants and procedures are developed it is anticipated that new complications may arise. However, the overall trend will be towards a generalized reduction. At the same time, patient expectations are increasing in tandem with improvements in health and longevity. It is important to counsel patients regarding any risks of potential complications associated with any intervention as part of the informed consent process.
