Arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical technique used to diagnose and treat joint problems through small incisions. At Nirmala Hospital, our Orthopaedic specialists utilize arthroscopy to address a variety of joint issues with precision, minimizing discomfort and promoting faster recovery.
What is Arthroscopy?
Arthroscopy is a surgical technique where a small camera (arthroscope) is inserted into the joint through tiny incisions. This provides clear, magnified images of the joint, allowing the surgeon to diagnose conditions and perform corrective procedures with minimal disruption to surrounding tissues.
