Ask an 'Arthroscopy Specialist' Online

Arthroscopy, otherwise called keyhole surgery, is a minimally-invasive surgery where an endoscope is inserted into a joint through a small incision for examination or treatment of any damage. As there is no need to open the joint to perform this surgery, the success rate is high due to less damage to the connective tissues, and recovery time is significantly reduced. Arthroscopy is done to diagnose diseases of the hip, knee, shoulder, ankle, and wrist joints. And it is used to treat conditions like torn cartilages, inflamed joints, torn ligaments, scarring in joints, and loose bone fragments.
