Arthroscopic Surgery

What is Arthroscopic Surgery?

Arthroscopic Surgery is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to diagnose and treat joint problems. A small camera, called an arthroscope, is inserted into the joint through a tiny incision, allowing orthopedic surgeons to examine and repair damaged tissues with minimal disruption. This technique results in less pain, faster recovery, and minimal scarring compared to traditional open surgery. It is commonly used for treating ligament tears, cartilage damage, and chronic joint pain in areas such as the knee, shoulder, hip, and ankle.
