Informacje o zabiegu
Arthroscopy of joints – is an operating technique characterized by a slight invasiveness. Thanks to arthroscopy it is possible to see the joints. Making small holes and inserting the camera and surgical instruments into the joint prevents extensive surgical wounds. The surgeon on the monitor in zoom can see all the elements of arthroscopy in the joint. Additional precision arthroscopic tools allow surgical procedures to be performed. Arthroscopy is possible in case of different joints: knee, shoulder, ankle, elbow and hip joints. Thanks to arthroscopy it is possible to repair damaged joint structures.
In case of knee joint: repair or removal of meniscus part, provision of surface of damaged articular cartilage, reconstruction of ligaments and cartilage transplants. In the shoulder joint: repair of damaged tendons and joints. Modern arthroscopic methods use various types of fastening implants, which allow to repair a particular structure, not to remove it, most of them are absorbed after some time and do not need to be removed.
Treatment with arthroscopy is used in post-traumatic conditions connected with sports and in case of degenerative disease – ligaments damage, meniscus damage, joint cartilage damage. This minimally invasive surgical technique, applied at an early stage, allows for a quick recovery and maximally shortens the convalescence time.
