Abstract
Exostosis can cause pain when it impinges on nearby nerves or rubs against other bones or overlying skin. Open surgical excision is the treatment of choice but has complication rates as high as 13%. Endoscopic resection of exostosis has the advantage of less postoperative pain, better cosmetic result, and faster recovery compared with traditional open surgery. The purpose of this Technical Note is to describe the details of endoscopic resection of exostosis of the medial femoral condyle.
