[Long-term results of knee joint rehabilitation after fascia interposition].
The method, schedule and results of rehabilitation in patients with the chondral defects in knee joints treated by partial or total fascial grafting were presented. In the series of 114 patients followed up from 1 to 19 years after operation there were 56.1% good and fair results in the group with partial grafting and 26.6% in the group with total fascial grafting. An aggravation of rheumatoid process, coincidence of deformities in adjacent joints, weakening of muscles and ligaments in the knee and Hoffa pad grafting during the development of the method yielded 17.7% bad or unsatisfactory results.
