Arthroscopy & Ligament Care
Keyhole Precision Surgery
Through two tiny incisions, a high-definition camera and precision instruments address cartilage, meniscus, and ligament injuries — restoring function with minimal recovery time.
How We Treat This
ACL Reconstruction
Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction using hamstring or patella tendon graft. Anatomical tunnel placement for optimal stability and function.
- ✓ Anatomical graft placement
- ✓ Accelerated rehabilitation protocol
- ✓ Return to sport in 6–9 months
- ✓ Hamstring or patella tendon graft options
Meniscus Repair & Meniscectomy
Torn meniscus addressed arthroscopically. Repair is preferred when possible — meniscectomy for irreparable tears. Rapid recovery.
- ✓ Meniscus preservation priority
- ✓ Tear pattern-specific technique
- ✓ Same-day procedure for most cases
- ✓ Return to activity in 4–6 weeks
Cartilage Restoration
Articular cartilage defects treated with microfracture, OATS, or ACI depending on defect size and patient profile.
- ✓ Microfracture for small defects
- ✓ OATS for focal cartilage loss
- ✓ ACI for large defect reconstruction
- ✓ Biological joint preservation
Why Choose This Approach
Minimal Incisions
Two 5mm incisions replace traditional open surgery — dramatically less trauma and scarring.
Day Surgery
Most arthroscopic procedures are performed as day cases with discharge on the same day.
Rapid Recovery
Patients return to light activity within days and sport within 4–9 months depending on procedure.
Diagnostic & Therapeutic
Arthroscopy simultaneously diagnoses and treats joint problems with unparalleled visual clarity.
Frequently Asked
Is arthroscopy performed under general anaesthesia?+
Most arthroscopic procedures use general or spinal anaesthesia. You will be assessed pre-operatively to determine the best approach.
When can I return to sport after ACL reconstruction?+
Return to full competitive sport typically occurs at 9–12 months following structured physiotherapy and strength testing.
Can all knee problems be treated arthroscopically?+
Many soft tissue problems (ligaments, meniscus, cartilage) are ideal for arthroscopy. Severe arthritis typically requires joint replacement.
How long does arthroscopy surgery take?+
Most procedures take 45–90 minutes. You will typically be discharged the same day within a few hours of surgery.
