Elbow Arthroscopy

Elbow arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to diagnose and treat various conditions affecting the elbow joint. During the procedure, a small camera (arthroscope) is inserted through tiny incisions, allowing the surgeon to see the inside of the joint without making a large cut. This technique helps to remove damaged tissue, loose cartilage, or bone fragments, and can also repair ligaments. The benefits include reduced pain, quicker recovery, and minimal scarring compared to traditional open surgery. It's often performed to alleviate issues such as arthritis, injuries, or joint instability in the elbow.
