Genicular Nerve Anatomy and Its Implication for New Procedural Approaches for Knee Joint Denervation: A Cadaveric Study

Abstract

Genicular denervation using classical anatomical landmarks may not be sufficient to treat the anterior knee joint pain. Our findings illustrate more accurate anatomic landmarks for the three-target paradigm and support additional targets for more complete genicular denervation. This cadaveric study provides robust anatomical findings that can provide a foundation for new anatomical landmarks and targets to improve genicular denervation outcomes.
