Knee Arthroscopy

Knee Arthroscopy Surgery

Knee Arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to diagnose and treat various knee joint problems. It allows the orthopedic surgeon to view and repair the inside of the knee through small keyhole incisions using a high-definition camera called an arthroscope.

This advanced technique helps relieve pain, improve mobility, and promote faster recovery with minimal scarring.

What Conditions Are Treated with Knee Arthroscopy?

  • Meniscus tears (cartilage injuries)
  • Ligament injuries (ACL, PCL)
  • Knee cartilage damage
  • Loose bone or cartilage fragments
  • Synovitis (inflamed joint lining)
  • Sports-related knee injuries
  • Persistent knee pain or swelling not responding to conservative treatment

Benefits of Knee Arthroscopy

  • Minimally invasive procedure
  • Smaller incisions and minimal scarring
  • Less pain and reduced risk of infection
  • Shorter hospital stay (often day care surgery)
  • Faster recovery and early return to daily activities
  • Improved knee function and stability

How the Procedure Is Performed

During knee arthroscopy, the surgeon makes small incisions around the knee and inserts the arthroscope to visualize the joint. Specialized instruments are used to repair or remove damaged tissues. The procedure is usually performed under spinal or general anesthesia and typically takes 30–60 minutes.

Recovery After Knee Arthroscopy

  • Most patients can walk on the same day with support
  • Pain and swelling reduce within a few days
  • Physiotherapy is started early for strength and flexibility
  • Return to daily activities within 1–3 weeks
  • Sports activities may resume as advised by the surgeon
