title: [Leg positioning device for facilitating arthroscopy and arthrotomy of the knee joint].
abstract: The knee positioning device presented above fulfills all requirements to be met for positioning the leg for all procedures on the knee. Possible adjustments during the surgical procedure can be carried out by the operating surgeon or his assistant while maintaining the asepsis. It allows immediate arthrotomy after the diagnostic arthroscopy has been carried out without demanding a new sterile covering.
