Understanding Knee Arthroscopy & Who’s a Candidate

Knee arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgery used to diagnose and treat various knee joint conditions. Through small incisions, a surgeon inserts a camera (arthroscope) and specialised instruments to repair damage or remove debris. Common indications include:

  • Meniscal tears (torn cartilage)
  • Cartilage damage or loose bodies
  • Ligament injuries (ACL, PCL) requiring inspection or minor repair
  • Synovitis (inflammation of the joint lining)
  • Baker’s cyst removal

Candidates:

  • Patients with persistent knee pain, swelling or limited mobility unresponsive to conservative therapy
  • Individuals with mechanical symptoms (locking, catching) or suspected cartilage/meniscus injury
  • Athletes seeking minimally invasive treatment for sports‑related injuries
  • People who want a quicker recovery compared to open surgery

Your surgeon will evaluate your medical history, imaging and symptoms to determine if knee arthroscopy is the appropriate procedure. For severe arthritis or extensive joint damage, knee replacement or other treatments may be more suitable.
