What is knee arthroscopy?

A minimally invasive treatment called knee arthroscopy is used to identify and treat knee joint injuries as well as other related conditions. In order to introduce an arthroscope and surgical tools during an arthroscopy procedure, the surgeon creates a few very small incisions over the knee joint.

When is arthroscopy of the knee necessary?

Only patients with severe knee joint disease or degeneration who haven't found meaningful relief from more conventional therapies including medication, physical therapy, rest, injections, etc. are advised to have a knee arthroscopy. The following conditions may need a recommendation for knee arthroscopy:

  • Meniscal damage
  • The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) or the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) may be torn.
  • tissue in the synovium is inflamed..
  • The articular cartilage has been harmed.
  • Chondromatosis of the synovium

How should I get ready for a knee arthroscopy?

The following preparation procedures should be carried out before having arthroscopic surgery:

  • Your orthopaedic surgeon will be able to best serve you if they are aware of all of your medical conditions and sensitivities.
  • You may need to stop taking any drugs, such as blood thinners and clotters, that might impair your ability to recover or create issues during the procedure.
  • Keep your expensive items, such as jewellery and watches, at home. To make changing clothes easier, dress comfortably and loosely for the hospital visit.
  • Depending on the type of anaesthesia your operation will be done under, you might need to fast 8–12 hours before to the procedure.
  • Make arrangements for someone to drive you home following the procedure because you might not be able to do it alone.

Does insurance cover knee arthroscopy?

Since knee arthroscopy is only carried out when it is medically required, it is typically covered by most insurance plans, including pre- and post-hospitalization expenses.

What percentage of knee arthroscopies are successful?

Knee arthroscopy has a success rate of over 90% for fully restoring the patient's joint mobility and delivering long-term pain relief.

Which is preferable, knee replacement or knee arthroscopy?

Knee replacement surgery is reserved for more serious situations when the patient has more significant damage to the knee joint that cannot be fixed. Knee arthroscopy is a more conservative technique that is typically done on patients where repair is possible.

How much time will I miss from work following a knee arthroscopy?

After surgery, you can resume desk job or school 3 to 5 days later, especially if it solely entails sedentary employment.

Treatments for Varicose Veins

Endovenous laser therapy ablation

Also known as endovenous laser treatment or EVLA, this is a minimally invasive ultrasound-guided procedure that involves the use of ultrasound images and laser fiber in order to kill the delicate lining of the veins. After a few days following the procedure, the body absorbs the dead tissues, closing off the abnormal veins with minimal or no discomfort. This is one of the most commonly preferred methods as it involves far fewer complications, and the recovery time, as well as the success rate of this method, is much faster and higher than that of any surgical process.
