Treatment of Arthroscopy Knee Surgery

Arthroscopy knee surgery is performed through small incisions over the joint. A small camera known as an arthroscope is inserted into the knee to diagnose the problem on the screen.

Step 1

General anesthesia and/or regional anesthesia are given to the patient.

Step 2

Two small incisions are made over the knee – one for the arthroscope and the other for the surgical instrument.

Step 3

Special sterile salt water is pumped in to expand the knee which makes it easier for the surgeon to see inside the joint.

Step 4

Arthroscope is inserted into the cuts and the surgeon looks inside the joint using the attached camera.

Step 5

Correction in tissue is made after the surgeon has located the problem.

Step 6

After surgery, the fluid is drained out and incisions are closed with stitches.
