Minimally Invasive Joint Surgery
Joint pain, sports injuries, and ligament or cartilage damage can significantly affect your mobility and quality of life. If conservative treatments such as medications, physiotherapy, or injections no longer provide relief, Minimally Invasive Joint Surgery offers an effective solution with smaller incisions, faster recovery, and less post-operative discomfort.
At our hospital, we specialize in Advanced Arthroscopic Surgery using state-of-the-art equipment and modern surgical techniques to diagnose and treat various joint conditions affecting the knee, shoulder, hip, ankle, elbow, and wrist.
What is Minimally Invasive Joint Surgery?
Minimally Invasive Joint Surgery, also known as Keyhole Joint Surgery, is an advanced orthopedic procedure performed using an arthroscope—a thin instrument equipped with a high-definition camera and specialized surgical instruments.
Instead of a large incision, the surgeon makes small keyhole incisions to visualize and repair damaged structures inside the joint with greater precision.
This technique results in:
What is Keyhole Joint Surgery?
Keyhole Joint Surgery is another name for arthroscopic surgery. The procedure allows orthopedic surgeons to diagnose and treat joint disorders without opening the entire joint.
Common joints treated include:
Conditions Treated with Arthroscopic Surgery
Our orthopedic specialists perform arthroscopic procedures for various conditions, including:
Arthroscopic Ligament Reconstruction
Arthroscopic Ligament Reconstruction is commonly performed for patients with torn ligaments, particularly the Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) and Posterior Cruciate Ligament (PCL).
Benefits include:
Arthroscopic Meniscus Repair
The meniscus acts as a shock absorber inside the knee. A torn meniscus can cause pain, swelling, locking, and instability.
Arthroscopic Meniscus Repair helps preserve the natural meniscus by repairing the damaged tissue whenever possible.
Advantages:
Arthroscopic Cartilage Repair
Healthy cartilage allows smooth joint movement. Damage to cartilage may lead to pain, swelling, and reduced mobility.
Arthroscopic Cartilage Repair treats cartilage defects using advanced techniques that help preserve the joint and improve function.
It is commonly recommended for:
Arthroscopic Tendon Repair
Tendon injuries can significantly affect movement and strength.
Arthroscopic Tendon Repair is commonly performed for:
