Arthroscopic surgery is one of the most standard orthopaedic procedures performed today. An orthoapaedic surgeon can visualize, diagnose, and treat problems within the joints, through the use of small instruments and cameras.The joints are viewed by making one or more incisions around it. An instrument called Arthroscope is inserted into the joint by the surgeon. The Arthroscope allows the surgeon to view the joint on television, monitor and diagnose the problem, determine the extent of injury and make necessary repairs. It contains a fiber optic light source and a small television that helps the surgeon in doing that. To help view or repair the tissues inside the joint other instruments may also be used.
