Arthroscopic surgery is a specialized technique that involves the use of a small, fiber-optic camera called an arthroscope, which is inserted into the joint through small incisions. This camera provides real-time visualization of the internal structures of the joint on a high-definition monitor, allowing the surgeons to diagnose and treat the problem with precision.

The dedicated team of orthopedic surgeons at Dr. Murkute’s O2 Bone & Eye Care are experts in performing arthroscopic surgeries on various joints, including the knee, shoulder, hip, elbow, and ankle. Some of the common arthroscopic procedures offered at the clinic include:

1. Arthroscopic Knee Surgery: This procedure is frequently used to address issues such as meniscal tears, ligament injuries (e.g., anterior cruciate ligament or ACL tears), and cartilage damage in the knee joint. By using arthroscopy, the surgeons can repair or remove damaged tissues, promoting joint stability and function.
2. Arthroscopic Shoulder Surgery: For conditions like rotator cuff tears, shoulder impingement, or labral injuries, arthroscopic shoulder surgery is often preferred. The minimally invasive nature of this procedure helps to alleviate pain, improve mobility, and restore shoulder strength.
3. Arthroscopic Hip Surgery: Hip impingement, labral tears, and cartilage damage can be effectively treated through arthroscopic hip surgery. This technique reduces postoperative discomfort and allows patients to resume their daily activities sooner.
4. Arthroscopic Elbow Surgery: Commonly used for addressing conditions like tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis), golfer’s elbow (medial epicondylitis), and loose bodies in the joint, arthroscopic elbow surgery offers a more precise and less invasive treatment option.
5. Arthroscopic Ankle Surgery: Issues such as ankle impingement, ligament injuries, and cartilage lesions can be treated using arthroscopic techniques, facilitating a quicker recovery and minimizing scarring.

The advantages of arthroscopic surgeries at Dr. Murkute’s O2 Bone & Eye Care go beyond the surgical precision and minimal invasiveness. Patients can expect personalized care, comprehensive pre-operative evaluations, and thorough post-operative rehabilitation programs to ensure a successful recovery and long-term joint health.

The clinic’s commitment to patient satisfaction, combined with the expertise of their orthopedic surgeons and advanced arthroscopic technology, has established Dr. Murkute’s O2 Bone & Eye Care as a leading destination for arthroscopic surgeries, providing patients with improved joint function, reduced pain, and an enhanced quality of life.
