The use of radiofrequency (RF) energy has become very popular in human and veterinary arthroscopic surgery since the late 1990s. Both monopolar and bipolar RF units are available. Application of RF energy to joint capsular tissue leads to immediate tissue shrinkage that is both power and temperature dependent. Changes in joint capsular tissue have been noted at temperatures greater than 65 degrees C. Treatment of articular cartilage with RF energy leads to immediate chondrocyte damage. This damage is also power and temperature dependent and is observed at temperatures as low as 45 degrees C. Caution should be used when applying RF energy within a joint to prevent or minimize articular cartilage injury.
自20世纪90年代末以来，射频（RF）能量在人类和兽医关节镜手术中的应用变得非常普遍。单极和双极射频设备均有。将射频能量应用于关节囊组织会导致组织立即收缩，这与功率和温度有关。在温度高于65摄氏度时，关节囊组织会出现变化。用射频能量治疗关节软骨会导致软骨细胞立即受损。这种损伤也与功率和温度有关，在低至45摄氏度的温度下即可观察到。在关节内应用射频能量时应谨慎操作，以防止或尽量减少关节软骨损伤。
