Arthroscopy
At Dr.Muthus Hospitals, orthopaedic surgeons treat various bone and joint disorders with advanced and minimally invasive techniques. Orthopaedic surgeries with minimally invasive techniques are usually performed using an arthroscope, a thin, special tool designed to view and treat problems inside the joints. Unlike large incisions, the arthroscope requires only one or more tiny cuts through the skin to access the joint.
An arthroscope is equipped with an advanced miniature camera and a specialized lighting system that make it possible for the structures inside the joint to be viewed on a monitor. In addition to the arthroscope, the surgeon can attach tools to the end to remove tissue or bone that has become inflamed.
At Dr.Muthus Hospitals, more than 300 arthroscopic procedures are performed each year. Surgical procedures involving the joints, such as arthroscopic or keyhole, are routinely performed. Arthroscopy is generally used to repair cartilage or meniscus damage in the knee and rotator cuff tears in the shoulder and hip resurfacing.
