Arthroscopic surgery is a minimally invasive procedure used to diagnose and treat problems inside the joints. It involves inserting a small camera called an arthroscope through tiny incisions, allowing the surgeon to view the joint on a monitor and perform precise surgical treatment.

This advanced technique is commonly used for knee and shoulder conditions, including ligament injuries, cartilage damage, rotator cuff tears, and joint inflammation. Arthroscopy helps doctors repair joint problems with greater accuracy while minimizing damage to surrounding tissues.

Because the procedure uses small incisions, patients usually experience less pain, reduced scarring, and faster recovery compared to traditional open surgery. Most patients can return to their normal activities sooner with proper rehabilitation and medical guidance.
