Arthroscopic Joint Surgery

Arthroscopic joint surgery is a minimally invasive procedure used to diagnose and treat joint problems. A small camera called an arthroscope is inserted through tiny incisions, allowing the surgeon to see inside the joint on a monitor. Specialized instruments are then used to repair or remove damaged tissue, such as torn cartilage or inflamed tissue. Because it involves small cuts, recovery is generally quicker and less painful than open surgery. This technique is commonly performed on joints like the knee, shoulder, or ankle to improve function and reduce pain.
