Core Tip	Arthroscopic debridement is a mature treatment for knee osteoarthritis (KOA). Compared with conservative treatment, arthroscopic debridement can significantly improve the knee resting pain and knee functional status of patients with KOA of Kellgren-Lawrence grade Ⅰ-Ⅲ within 2 years after treatment. However, compared with conservative treatment, arthroscopic debridement can not significantly improve knee pain during walking of patients with KOA of Kellgren-Lawrence grade Ⅰ-Ⅲ within 2 years after treatment.
