Arthoscopy

Arthroscopy, also known as keyhole surgery because it is done through a very small incision, is a surgical technique in which a small telescope and camera is placed into a joint to allow either the diagnosis of joint problems or to remove bone chips. The image is projected onto a monitor for viewing by the surgeons. Due to the small incision, this technique permits a more rapid recovery than with conventional surgery.
