Transforming Lives with Knee Arthroscopy (Single)
Knee arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to diagnose and treat problems inside the knee joint. A small camera, called an arthroscope, is inserted into the knee through a tiny incision, allowing the surgeon to view the joint on a screen and use miniature instruments to perform necessary repairs. This procedure is commonly used to treat meniscal tears, ligament injuries, cartilage damage, and to remove loose fragments. Knee arthroscopy typically results in less pain and a faster recovery compared to traditional open surgery.
