Knee Arthroscopy in Ahmedabad

Expert keyhole knee surgery by Dr Hardik Shah — ACL reconstruction, meniscus repair, and cartilage treatment with faster recovery and smaller scars.

What is Knee Arthroscopy?

Knee arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure where Dr Hardik Shah uses a miniature camera (arthroscope) inserted through small keyhole incisions to diagnose and treat problems inside the knee joint. Unlike open surgery, arthroscopy causes minimal tissue damage, allowing most patients to return home the same day.

It's the gold standard for treating sports injuries, ligament tears, cartilage damage, and meniscus problems. At DHS Multispecialty Hospital, Dr Shah performs hundreds of arthroscopic procedures each year using the latest HD visualisation and precision instruments.

Conditions Treated with Arthroscopy

  • ACL Tears: Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction using grafts
  • Meniscus Injuries: Repair or trimming of torn meniscal cartilage
  • PCL & MCL Injuries: Posterior and medial collateral ligament repairs
  • Cartilage Damage: Chondroplasty and cartilage restoration
  • Loose Bodies: Removal of bone or cartilage fragments
  • Patellar Issues: Kneecap tracking and stability correction
  • Synovitis: Treatment of inflamed knee joint lining

Advantages of Arthroscopy

  • Tiny incisions (5-10mm) — minimal scarring
  • Day-care or overnight surgery
  • Less post-operative pain
  • Faster return to work and sport
  • Lower infection risk
  • HD visualisation for precision
  • Suitable for all age groups
