Elbow Arthroscopy

Arthroscopy is a technique that orthopaedic surgeons use to look into, diagnose, and repair troubles inside a joint.

 

The phrase arthroscopy comes from  Greek words, "arthro" (joint) and "skopein" (to look). The time period actually method "to appearance inside the joint." During elbow arthroscopy, your general practitioner inserts a small digicam, called an arthroscope, into your elbow joint. The digital camera shows photographs on a television display screen, and your health care provider uses those photographs to guide miniature surgical units.

 

Because the arthroscope and surgical contraptions are thin, your doctor can use very small incisions (cuts), in preference to the larger incision needed for open surgical treatment. This results in less ache for patients, much less joint stiffness, and often shortens the time it takes to recover and go back to preferred sports.
