CASTANEDA GUERRA., Yadier; VAZQUEZ MILANES., Julio Antonio  e  ROSABAL SADIN., Martha Rosa. Arthroscopic treatment of patients diagnosed with synovial knee plica. Multimed [online]. 2020, vol.24, n.4, pp.825-835.  Epub 10-Jul-2020. ISSN 1028-4818.

Introduction:

PS can occur in isolation or associated with other diseases, but its responsibility as a cause of joint pain is justified when other intra-articular alterations that explain the symptoms are not detected or when it is associated with other diseases and the PS vascularized and irritated. Positive diagnosis is difficult both from a clinical and imaging point of view, hence arthroscopy is the gold standard, to confirm its presence and carry out treatment.

Objective:

to evaluate the effectiveness of arthroscopic treatment in the perception of health-related quality of life in 72 patients with synovial plica.

Method:

a prospective, longitudinal, quasi-experimental, before-after, therapeutic intervention study was carried out in the Orthopedics and Traumatology department of the Carlos Manuel de Céspedes Hospital in Bayamo, in the period from January 2017 to December 2018, As it was a quasi-experimental study, an intragroup analysis was carried out, comparing the pre and post-treatment data.

Results:

the female sex prevailed, in the ages between 30 to 44 years, suprapatellar plicae were frequent. The most frequent clinical manifestation was pain, followed by crepitus. The visual analog scale showed improvement with a statistically significant decrease.

Conclusions:

the effectiveness of arthroscopy was demonstrated. The most frequent complication was postoperative hemarthrosis.
