Arthroscopy

Arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to diagnose and treat problems inside a joint. It involves inserting a small camera called an arthroscope through a tiny incision, allowing the surgeon to see the inside of the joint on a screen.

Common Joints Examined :

  • Knee (most common)
  • Shoulder
  • Hip
  • Ankle
  • Elbow
  • Wrist
Procedure
  • Small incisions (ports) are made near the joint.
  • The arthroscopy (a thin tube with a camera and light) is inserted.
  • Sterile fluid is used to expand the joint for better visibility.
  • Special instruments can be inserted to repair or remove damaged tissue if needed.
Uses
  • Diagnosing joint injuries and diseases (e.g., torn cartilage, ligament damage, arthritis).
  • Treating joint problems (e.g., removing loose fragments, repairing ligaments).
Advantages
  • Smaller incisions - less pain and scarring
  • Shorter recovery time
  • Lower risk of infection compared to open surgery
Recovery
  • Most patients go home the same day and can resume normal activities within a few days to weeks, depending on the procedure.
