A knee arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgery that involves the use of an arthroscope – a thin, pencil-like instrument with a small camera affixed to the end. This surgery allows a physician to view the inside of the knee without making a large incision or disturbing the joint’s anatomy. During an arthroscopy, the arthroscope is inserted into the knee while live images from the instrument’s camera are displayed on a large screen in the operating room.
Knee arthroscopies are often used to diagnose joint conditions. When combined with other minimally invasive techniques, they may also be performed to:

• Repair torn cartilage or ligaments
• Remove loose bone fragments or cartilage
• Treat joint infections
• Address inflamed joint linings
• Remove excess scar tissue
