Description

Knee arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to diagnose and treat joint problems. A small camera (arthroscope) is inserted into the knee through a tiny incision, allowing the surgeon to view and treat conditions such as torn meniscus, ACL injuries, cartilage damage, and inflamed joint linings. It is commonly performed as outpatient surgery under local or general anesthesia. Recovery is usually faster than open surgery, with reduced pain and scarring. Patients often resume normal activities within a few weeks, though full recovery may take longer depending on the condition treated and adherence to physical therapy.
