Understanding Knee Arthroscopy
Knee arthroscopy is a surgical technique that allows doctors to view the inside of the knee joint using a small camera (arthroscope) inserted through tiny incisions. This procedure can be used to diagnose and treat a range of knee issues, including cartilage tears, ligament injuries, and joint inflammation. It is often preferred over traditional open surgery due to its minimally invasive nature and quicker recovery time.
