Arthroscopy: is it right for you?

Here are some common conditions where Arthroscopy may be called for:

  • Torn cartilage
  • Torn ligaments
  • Loose fragments of bone or cartilage
  • Damaged joint surface
  • Inflammation of the joint lining
  • Misaligned bones (such as the kneecap)

Even though the inside of most joints can be viewed with an arthroscope, only six joints are frequently examined. Apart from the knee, the other joints are the shoulder, elbow, ankle, hip and wrist.
