Surgical knee denervation is a specialized procedure designed to alleviate chronic knee pain, often caused by conditions like osteoarthritis. During the procedure, sensory nerves responsible for transmitting pain signals from the knee joint are selectively targeted and cut, aiming to interrupt the pain pathways without affecting motor function.
