Yu PJ, Loh E, Agur AMR, Tran J

Abstract

Radiofrequency ablation is a common non-opioid treatment to manage chronic knee pain. The inferior medial genicular nerve is conventionally targeted. It has been suggested that the infrapatellar branch(saphenous nerve) should also be targeted. There is controversy regarding the contribution of the infrapatellar branch to the innervation of the knee joint capsule.
