Arthroscopic Surgery

Arthroscopic surgery is the visualization of joints through a camera by making one-centimeter incisions. Arthroscopic surgery, used for diagnosis and treatment, plays an important role in the treatment of diseases related to knee, shoulder and hip joints. Arthroscopic surgery, which allows patients to accelerate their recovery process and make the surgery more comfortable, is performed under anesthesia and in the operating room.

Surgeries performed with arthroscopic surgery take an average of 20 minutes to 120 minutes. In arthroscopic surgery, the operation is performed by making 2 or more incisions on the patient's body. In some surgeries, arthroscopic surgery can be used inside the joint, while open surgery can be performed outside the joint. Arthroscopic surgery can be used in the diagnosis and treatment of all diseases related to large joints.
