chronic pain syndrome, damage to the knee jointAbstract
This article reflects the results of the research, concerning the comparative analysis of the results of the treatment of chronic pain syndrome of the knee joint by two different methods and the division of patients into the main and comparison groups, respectively. Where the main group includes patients who received radiofrequency ablation of the genicular nerves as the main method of treatment of chronic pain syndrome, and the comparison group includes patients who underwent short-term blockades of the knee joint under ultrasound guidance.
