What is Knee Arthroscopy?
Knee arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to diagnose and treat knee joint issues. Through a small incision, a surgeon inserts an arthroscope containing lenses, a camera, and a light to visualize the knee joint. This allows for the investigation and correction of various problems, such as torn meniscus, misaligned patella, and ligament injuries. Common procedures include meniscectomy, ligament repair, cartilage reconstruction, and removal of loose fragments. Arthroscopy is recommended when nonsurgical treatments fail to alleviate knee problems and can be performed for a unilateral (single knee) or bilateral knee arthroscopy (for both knees). Arthroscopy for knee arthritis is the best solution for the majority of individuals.

Knee Arthroscopy: Procedure, Recovery And Post-Procedure Care
Preparation: Before knee arthroscopy, the patient undergoes a health assessment to identify potential risks. Preoperative tests like blood tests or EKGs may be recommended. Arthroscopy is typically performed as an outpatient procedure.
During the procedure: The knee is cleaned and stabilized, and anesthesia is administered. Using an arthroscope, the surgeon diagnoses injuries and, if necessary, makes additional incisions to repair tissues, remove damaged bones, and address inflammation. The procedure concludes with the closure of incisions.
After the procedure: Knee arthroscopy procedures are typically outpatient and typically last less than an hour. The surgery’s duration depends on the findings and necessary treatment. Incisions may be closed with stitches or steri-strips, and braces may be used post-operatively for protection.
Knee arthroscopy recovery: Knee arthroscopy recovery time varies based on the procedure complexity. Simple cases may recover quickly, while complex ones may take several months to a year, sometimes requiring crutches or a knee brace for weeks initially.
Post-procedure care: Post-surgery, pain relief medications are prescribed, and patients are advised to elevate the leg and apply ice as directed. Weight-bearing status varies by surgery type. Follow-up appointments monitor progress, and most patients use crutches initially. Regular exercise over several weeks restores motion and strengthens muscles. Recovery time depends on the extent of knee damage, and activity should be limited until cleared by the surgeon.
