Arthroscopy

This is a keyhole surgery for the treatment of the joint injuries. This is performed as a day case procedure (Patient is admitted in the morning, 2-3 hours before operation and discharged in the evening). It also has the benefit of avoiding open operation, which means the patient can be back to work in 2-3 weeks. This operation is indicated for treating  injuries of the knees and ankles and also useful in early stages of arthritis of the knees. It can also be used to treat certain painful conditions of the shoulder.
