ARTHROSCOPY
SURGERY
Arthroscopy
is a surgical procedure orthopedic surgeons use to visualize,
diagnose and treat problems inside a joint. This form of surgery
is much less intrusive since the orthopedic surgeon is able
to see the interior of the joint through a very small incision
rather than a large incision needed for surgery. Arthroscopy
surgery is used most often for knees, shoulders, elbows, ankles
and wrists.
