32 patients were analyzed in our examinations, patients were treated on an outpatient basis in 2017-2022. 9.10 ± 0.04 cm before treatment of VAS in patients 2 weeks before RChNA, and after 1, 3, 6, 12 months. After 1 month, RChNA was 3.96 ± 0.28 cm (r ≤ 0.05) in patients with reduced pain in the VASh group. This condition was maintained for up to 3 months. The positive result in this group is 4.33 ± 0.29 cm; maintained, in 6 months – 4.46 ± 0.32 cm; and in 12 months - 5.01 ± 0.34 cm (r ≤ 0.05) indicator.
After RChNA treatment, the functional state of the affected joint was analyzed according to the WOMAC questionnaire. (changes higher than 15 points): indicators after 2 weeks 52.60 ± 1.60 points after 1 month 1 – 48.80 ± 2.01, in 3 months – 51.29 ± 1.99, in 6 months – 54.18 ± 2.32, after 1 year – 55.48 ± 2.60 points. We compared our analysis of results with other authors' randomized controlled trials.
The method of radiofrequency neuroablation of the articular nerve branches of the knee joint is considered one of the effective and safe methods. Although the style is not universal, it has found its place in the gonalgia synrom.
