Knee & Shoulder Arthroscopy
Knee and shoulder arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to diagnose and treat various joint conditions through small incisions. Using a high-definition camera and specialized instruments, our orthopedic specialists can accurately treat joint problems with less pain, minimal scarring, and faster recovery compared to traditional open surgery.
What is Arthroscopy?
Arthroscopy is a keyhole surgical technique in which a tiny camera called an arthroscope is inserted into the joint to visualize and repair damaged tissues. It is commonly performed for both knee and shoulder conditions, allowing precise treatment while preserving healthy tissues.
When is Arthroscopy Recommended?
- ACL, PCL, and meniscus injuries of the knee.
- Rotator cuff tears and shoulder instability.
- Cartilage damage, loose bodies, and joint stiffness.
- Persistent joint pain not relieved by medication or physiotherapy.
Benefits of Arthroscopy
Arthroscopic surgery offers smaller incisions, less postoperative pain, reduced blood loss, lower risk of infection, shorter hospital stay, faster rehabilitation, and an earlier return to work, sports, and daily activities.
