Minimally Invasive Orthopedic Surgery
Minimally invasive orthopedic surgery helps orthopedists minimize pain and maximize mobility in their patients. Making a few small incisions versus one large incision leads helps with faster recovery. This lower-risk, targeted approach is also associated with minimized post-surgery pain and limited soft tissue damage.
The Latest in Minimally Invasive Orthopedic Surgery
Our orthopedic surgeons perform the following types of minimally invasive orthopedic procedures.
Arthroscopy
The surgeon makes a few small incisions and inserts an arthroscope—a tube with a camera attached to the end—to navigate the surgical area. The arthroscope enables the surgeon to view the cause of your pain. The latest arthroscopic procedures include:
- Knee Arthroscopy
- Hip Arthroscopy
- Shoulder Arthroscopy
- Wrist Arthroscopy
Total Joint Replacement
During total joint replacement surgery, damaged portions of a knee joint are removed and replaced with artificial material. The goal of this procedure is to relieve pain, improve function, and restore the appearance of the affected area.
