Arthroscopy (Keyhole Surgery)
Arthroscopy is a modern minimally invasive surgical technique that allows orthopedic surgeons to examine, diagnose, and treat problems inside a joint using a small camera called an arthroscope. The procedure is performed through tiny incisions, making it less traumatic than traditional open surgery and enabling quicker recovery.
What is Arthroscopy?
During arthroscopy, a thin instrument equipped with a camera is inserted into the joint through a small incision. The camera displays detailed images on a monitor, allowing the surgeon to identify and treat joint conditions with precision. Specialized instruments can be inserted through additional small incisions to perform necessary repairs.
Conditions Treated with Arthroscopy
- Meniscus Tears
- Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) Injuries
- Posterior Cruciate Ligament (PCL) Injuries
- Cartilage Damage
- Shoulder Impingement Syndrome
- Rotator Cuff Tears
- Labral Tears
- Loose Bone or Cartilage Fragments
- Synovitis (Joint Inflammation)
- Sports-Related Joint Injuries
Types of Arthroscopic Procedures
Knee Arthroscopy
Used to diagnose and treat ligament injuries, meniscus tears, cartilage damage, and other knee conditions.
Shoulder Arthroscopy
Performed to treat rotator cuff tears, labral injuries, shoulder instability, and impingement syndrome.
Hip Arthroscopy
Used for the treatment of hip impingement, labral tears, and other hip joint disorders.
Ankle Arthroscopy
Helps diagnose and manage ankle injuries, cartilage problems, and chronic ankle pain.
Wrist and Elbow Arthroscopy
Minimally invasive treatment for joint injuries, stiffness, and sports-related conditions.
