Arthroscopy is a surgical procedure that orthopedic surgeons use to visualize and treat problems within the joint. In arthroscopic surgery, the orthopedic surgeon makes a small incision in the patient's skin, then inserts pen-sized instruments containing a small lens and illumination system to magnify and illuminate the structures within the joint. The light is transmitted to the tip of the arthroscope inserted into the joint via fiber optics. By connecting the arthroscope to a miniature camera, the surgeon can see inside the joint through this very small incision instead of the larger incision required for open surgery. The camera attached to the arthroscope displays the image of the joint on a video monitor, allowing the surgeon to look, for example, across the knee. This allows the surgeon to see the cartilage, ligaments, and under the kneecap. The surgeon can determine the amount or type of injury and then repair or correct the problem if necessary.
