What is arthroscopy?
A procedure to diagnose and treat joint problems. A surgeon inserts a thin tube connected to a fiber-optic video camera through a small, buttonhole-sized incision. The image inside the joint is transmitted to a high-definition video monitor.
Arthroscopy allows the surgeon to see inside the joint without making a large incision. Surgeons can even repair certain types of joint damage during arthroscopy.
What do prosthesis do?
An artificial replacement for a missing body part (either singular or plural; called a prosthesis). Sometimes a body part must be removed if cancer is found in it.
Also, sometimes having treatment for it may result in hair loss.
What can sport surgery do?
Sports surgery can repair damaged soft tissue and realign bones and joints. However, not all injuries require surgery.
A sports medicine doctor can treat the following injuries caused by physical activity: A sprained ankle.
