The authors covered questions of epidemiology and surgical technique, touched on important aspects of the main complications, such as graft damage, arthrofibrosis and impingement syndrome, the formation of synovial cysts, infections, the development of osteoarthritis and cartilage degeneration. Despite the prevalence of pathology, a huge number of publications and the development of arthroscopic surgery, there are many theoretical and technical problems, that have not yet found a satisfactory solution and require further development.
