title: Loose body as an obstacle for posterolateral arthroscopic portal formation in the knee joint.
abstract: In this report, we present a case with difficult arthroscopic posterolateral portal formation due to loose body located in posterior compartment. These loose bodies are responsible for pain, decreased range of motion and cartilage damage in the knee joint. By making the posterior trans-septal portal prior, posterolateral portal could be made without difficulty completing the planned arthroscopic procedure.
