Knee Arthroscopy in Mumbai — What Is It?
Knee arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure where Dr. Kunal Patel uses a tiny camera (arthroscope) to examine and treat problems inside the knee joint. Compared to open surgery, arthroscopy results in smaller incisions, less pain and significantly faster recovery.
Knee Conditions Treated with Arthroscopy
- Meniscus Tears — partial or complete
- ACL (Anterior Cruciate Ligament) Injuries
- PCL Injuries
- Knee Cartilage Damage
- Knee Joint Infections
- Loose Bodies in the Knee Joint
- Early-Stage Knee Arthritis
Knee Arthroscopy vs Knee Replacement — Which Do You Need?
Knee arthroscopy is suitable for younger patients and those with isolated ligament or cartilage injuries. For patients with advanced arthritis causing severe joint damage, total knee replacement surgery may be the more appropriate solution. Dr. Kunal Patel will assess your condition and recommend the right treatment during consultation.
Knee Arthroscopy Recovery Time
Most patients resume normal activities within 4-6 weeks after knee arthroscopy. Athletes and active patients can typically return to sports in 3-6 months with proper physiotherapy.
