What Is Arthroscopy?
An arthroscope is a small optical camera that projects high-definition images of the interior joint space onto surgical monitors. Through additional pencil-sized incisions, specialized instruments repair or remove damaged tissues.
Joints Treated Arthroscopically
Dr. Dalal routinely performs arthroscopy on the knee (meniscus repairs, loose body removal, ACL reconstruction), shoulder (rotator cuff repair, labral repair, impingement relief), and elbow.
Patient Advantages
Compared to traditional open surgery, arthroscopy causes significantly less tissue trauma, resulting in less postoperative pain, smaller scars, and quicker rehabilitation.
