Total knee replacement (arthroplasty) replaces damaged cartilage and bone with metal and plastic components. The procedure relieves chronic pain and restores mobility for patients with severe arthritis or injury. Modern implants last 20-25 years with a 95%+ success rate.
Knee arthroscopy is a minimally invasive procedure using a tiny camera and instruments through small incisions. It can diagnose and treat multiple conditions including cartilage damage, loose bodies, and inflammation. Patients typically go home the same day.
Meniscus surgery treats tears in the cartilage that cushions the knee joint. Depending on the tear type and location, surgeons may repair the meniscus with sutures or remove damaged tissue (meniscectomy). Arthroscopic meniscus surgery is minimally invasive with quick recovery.
