What is Knee Arthroscopy Surgery?

Knee Arthroscopy Surgery is a minimally invasive orthopedic procedure used to diagnose and treat problems inside the knee joint using a small camera called an arthroscope. The camera is inserted through tiny incisions, allowing the surgeon to view the internal structures of the knee on a high-definition monitor.

This procedure is commonly performed to treat torn ligaments, meniscus injuries, cartilage damage, loose bone fragments, and inflammation within the joint. Because it requires only small incisions, arthroscopy typically results in less pain and faster recovery compared to traditional open surgery.

Knee arthroscopy helps restore joint stability, reduce pain, and improve mobility, especially in active individuals or patients experiencing persistent knee discomfort that does not improve with conservative treatment.

Step-by-step process

How is Knee Arthroscopy Performed?

The procedure is carried out in a specialized orthopedic operating theatre equipped with arthroscopic imaging systems.

Preoperative Evaluation

MRI and clinical examination findings are reviewed to confirm the diagnosis.

Anesthesia Administration

The patient receives general or regional anesthesia for comfort.

Small Incision Creation

Two or three small incisions are made around the knee.

Insertion of Arthroscope

A thin camera is inserted to visualize the joint structures.

Repair or Removal of Damaged Tissue

Specialized instruments are used to repair ligaments or remove damaged cartilage.

Closure and Early Mobilization

Incisions are closed, and guided physiotherapy begins shortly after surgery.

This approach ensures precise treatment while minimizing tissue disruption.
