Arthroscopy
Arthroscopic surgery allows orthopedic surgeons to diagnose joint problems and perform surgery in a whole new way that results in a better experience for the patient. In the past, traditional open surgery techniques required a large incision to expose a joint, which resulted in lengthy recovery times, increased the risk of infection, and caused pain and bleeding. Arthroscopic surgery uses a state-of-the-art arthroscope that requires only small incisions. Arthroscopy is associated with short recovery times and less risk of infection, as well as less pain and bleeding and a quick return to work.
An arthroscope is a pencil-sized camera that contains a small lens and lighting system. When placed through a small incision and into a joint, the arthroscope is enables the orthopedic surgeon to see internal structures.
