What Is Arthroscopy?

Arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure using a tiny camera and precision instruments to diagnose and repair joint problems through small incisions.

How It Works:

Direct Visualization:
A small fiber-optic camera shows clear images of the joint interior.

Precise Repairs:
Miniature instruments fix damage while preserving healthy tissue.

Minimal Incisions:
Keyhole openings reduce pain and speed recovery.

Treatment Options:

Knee
Arthroscopy repairs meniscus tears, reconstructs the ACL, restores cartilage, and removes loose fragments with minimal incisions.

Shoulder
It treats rotator cuff tears, stabilizes the labrum, relieves impingement, and releases frozen shoulders.

Ankle
Arthroscopy repairs ligaments, treats cartilage injuries, removes bone spurs, and clears scar tissue.

Elbow
It addresses tennis elbow , arthritis, loose bodies, and ligament injuries.

Wrist
Arthroscopy repairs TFCC tears, removes cysts, reconstructs ligaments, and eases carpal tunnel issues.
