Arthroscopy

  • is a surgical procedure orthopaedic surgeons use to visualize, diagnose and treat problems inside a joint, eg. the knee.
  • is a minimally invasive procedure, needing only small incisions.
  • can be used as a tool to diagnose mechanical problems within the knee, such as torn cartilage or a loose body in the joint.
  • can be used to surgically repair certain conditions, such as torn cartilage or ligaments.
  • leaves a smaller scar, so hospital stay is shorter and the recovery time is faster.
