What is Arthroscopy?

Arthroscopy is a minimally invasive procedure where a small camera called an arthroscope is inserted through a tiny incision into the joint. It projects a live image on screen, allowing Dr. Karwasra to see, diagnose, and treat joint problems with precision — without large cuts or long hospital stays.
Surgical instruments are passed through 1–2 additional small cuts to repair damaged tissue, remove loose fragments, or fix torn ligaments. Because the incisions are barely 1 cm, patients experience far less pain, minimal scarring, and a significantly faster recovery than traditional open surgery.

Types ofJoints Treated with Arthroscopy

Knee Arthroscopy

Most common — treats ligament tears (ACL/PCL), meniscus injuries, cartilage damage, and loose fragments inside the knee joint.

Shoulder Arthroscopy

Repairs rotator cuff tears, treats frozen shoulder, shoulder instability, and impingement syndrome with minimal tissue disruption.

Hip Arthroscopy

Addresses labral tears, hip impingement (FAI), cartilage damage, and removal of loose bodies from inside the hip joint.

Ankle Arthroscopy

Treats ankle instability, osteochondral defects, ankle impingement, and inflamed tissue causing chronic ankle pain.

Arthroscopy vs Open Surgery

Traditional Open Surgery

Large incision (10–20 cm) More blood loss Higher infection risk 3–5 days hospital stay Recovery: 3–6 months More post-op pain Larger visible scar

Arthroscopy (Keyhole)

Tiny incision (under 1 cm) Minimal blood loss Very low infection risk Same day / 1 day stay Recovery: 1–6 weeks Much less pain Barely visible scar
