At PMG Hospital, arthroscopy is performed by Dr. Hiren Patel, an experienced arthroscopy surgeon in Ahmedabad with 13+ years of experience and 11,000+ successful orthopedic surgeries.

If joint pain from an old injury or wear-and-tear isn’t settling with rest, medication, or physiotherapy, arthroscopy is often the next step a small, precise procedure that finds the problem and fixes it in one go.

What Is Arthroscopy or Keyhole Surgery?

Arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgery performed by an experienced orthopedic surgeon to look inside a joint, diagnose the problem, and treat it all through a very small incision. It’s one of the most advanced ways to manage joint problems with minimal disruption to the body.

In keyhole surgery, a narrow tube containing a fibre-optic camera (the arthroscope) is inserted into the joint through a buttonhole-sized incision, sending a clear picture of the joint’s interior to a monitor. Fine instruments are then passed through other tiny incisions to repair the damage. Arthroscopy is commonly performed on the knee, shoulder, hip, wrist, elbow, and ankle.

Types of Arthroscopy Surgery

  • Knee Arthroscopy
lets the surgeon view and treat the knee joint through very small incisions, using thin instruments, for problems like meniscus and ligament tears.
  • Elbow Arthroscopy
Aging, injuries, and overuse of joints are the reasons for elbow problems. Elbow arthroscopy relieves the pain and other problems that can damage the cartilage surfaces and soft tissues.
  • Hand & Wrist Arthroscopy
Chronic Wrist pain, fractures, and wear and tears can cause painful experiences that are not curable with noninvasive and nonsurgical treatments. Wrist arthroscopy would be the less painful and minimally invasive solution with quick recovery time.
  • Shoulder Arthroscopy
The cuff over shoulder joint is formed by a group of muscles called the rotator cuff and their tendons. The tendons can tear when injured and overused. Shoulder arthroscopy helps in examining and repairing the tissues of shoulder joints
  • Hip Arthroscopy
Hip arthroscopy is performed on the acetabulofemoral joint through an arthroscope with minimally invasive surgery to clean and replace the damaged tissues from Hip joints, reshape bones, and repair tears.
  • Ankle Arthroscopy
Alternative to ankle arthrodesis, Ankle replacement surgery is performed to relieve joint inflammation, or pain and swelling in the ankle and foot due to Ankle arthritis, Ankle fractures, and Ankle instability.

Conditions Treated With Arthroscopy

Arthroscopy is used to diagnose and treat a wide range of joint problems, including:
  • ACL and other ligament tears
  • Loose bone or cartilage fragments in a joint
  • Joint inflammation and early arthritis
  • Cartilage damage and certain sports injuries
Because it’s precise and minimally invasive, arthroscopy often means smaller scars, a lower infection risk, and a quicker return to normal life than traditional open surgery.

Why Do You Need Arthroscopy?

Arthroscopy is a modern surgical procedure done through a small incision, and in many cases it replaces classic open surgery. All the movements that reposition your skeleton happen at the joints, so overuse, ageing, fractures, tears, or injuries can cause real pain and limit your mobility.

Orthopedic surgeons in Ahmedabad usually recommend non-invasive options first painkillers and physiotherapy for pain, swelling, and inflammation. When these don’t bring lasting relief, arthroscopy is recommended to diagnose and treat problems affecting the cartilage, ligaments, and other structures around the joint.

How Long Does It Take to Recover After Arthroscopy?

Recovery after arthroscopy depends on the type of procedure. Many patients go home the same day, though some procedures call for a 2–3 day hospital stay. Complete recovery can range from about a week to several months, largely depending on which joint was treated knee arthroscopy, for example, usually takes longer to heal than wrist arthroscopy.

Your overall health before surgery also matters: patients with previous surgeries or other medical conditions may need a longer recovery. A tailored physiotherapy plan from your arthroscopy doctor in Ahmedabad helps you heal as quickly and safely as possible.
