Arthroscopy Surgery
Overview
Arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to diagnose and treat joint problems. Through small incisions, a surgeon uses a specialized camera (arthroscope) to view and repair joint structures. It is commonly used for conditions affecting the knees, shoulders, elbows, wrists, and ankles.
What is Arthroscopy Surgery?
Arthroscopy allows doctors to examine, diagnose, and treat joint conditions without the need for open surgery. The procedure involves:
- A small incision through which the arthroscope (a thin tube with a camera) is inserted.
- Additional instruments to repair or remove damaged tissue.
Common Conditions Treated with Arthroscopy:
- Torn ligaments (e.g., ACL injuries).
- Damaged cartilage.
- Joint inflammation or infections.
- Rotator cuff tears in the shoulder.
- Loose bone or cartilage fragments.
When is Arthroscopy Surgery Needed?
- Persistent joint pain that does not improve with medication or physical therapy.
- Limited range of motion in a joint.
- Joint swelling or stiffness affecting daily activities.
Benefits of Arthroscopy Surgery
- Shorter recovery time compared to open surgery.
- Smaller incisions and less scarring.
