Brief summary (from the registry)

In patients with knee pain, local anesthetics and radiofrequency applications to superolateral, superomedial and inferomedial genicular nerves that innervate the knee joint are also preferred methods besides analgesic and physical therapy. When necessary, total knee replacement is the preferred method for primary knee arthrosis. However, continuing knee pain is reported in approximately 20% of patients after total knee replacement. In similar cases; In the painful knees, the blockages of the genicular nerves are successfully applied. In this study; the efficacy of imaging-guided radiofrequency application will be investigated in patients presenting with knee pain after total knee replacement.
