Why Arthroscopy (Knee) Is Needed

Knee arthroscopy is recommended when imaging or examination suggests a torn meniscus, damaged articular cartilage, a loose bone or cartilage fragment, or ligament injury that hasn't responded to conservative treatment like rest and physiotherapy. It's also used to investigate unexplained knee pain, swelling, or locking when the exact cause isn't clear on X-ray or MRI alone. Persistent synovitis or suspected infection inside the joint can be another reason.

Signs You May Need Arthroscopy (Knee)

Patients typically report knee pain that worsens with twisting or squatting, swelling that recurs after activity, and a sensation of the knee catching, locking, or giving way. Limited range of motion and a popping or clicking sound during movement are also common indicators that the joint needs direct visual assessment and treatment.

Types of Arthroscopy (Knee)

Arthroscopy can be purely diagnostic, used just to visualize the joint, or operative, where the surgeon treats the problem found — such as trimming or repairing a torn meniscus, smoothing damaged cartilage, or removing loose bodies — in the same sitting. It's also used for partial or complete ACL/PCL ligament reconstruction and for washing out infected joints. The specific technique used depends entirely on what pathology is found once the camera is inside.
