Arthroscopy , Knee Arthroscopy
Arthroscopy is a procedure where a very fine telescope is introduced into the knee joint to visualize different structures in side the joint, assess there integrity, pick-up any pathology and at the same time use very specialized and sophisticated instruments to address the pathology by making two small puncture wounds of 4mm on each side of the knee.
Knee joint is a very frequently arthroscpied joint as it is a very superficial joint most amenable to scopy as it has large volume. By using different kinds (different degrees telescope) one can visualize almost 98% of joint structure. This allows arthroscopic surgeon to deal with 90% of joint problem arthroscopically or arthroscopically assisted. The results of the knee arthrocopy if performed correctly by a specialist is better than open surgery. This is because there are some areas of the knee(back part) the balls of the thigh bone, back portion of the cartilage which are not easily accessible by open procedure but knee arthroscopy is able to show it very clearly and the specially design arthroscopic instrument are able to address the problem very elegantly without disturbing or harming surrounding structures.
