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 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.

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

Step 6

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