Wrist Arthroscopy in Kansas

Wrist arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to diagnose and treat problems inside the wrist joint. During the procedure, a small camera, called an arthroscope, is inserted through tiny incisions in the wrist. This allows the surgeon to visualize the structures inside the joint, such as cartilage, ligaments, and tendons, in detail. Wrist arthroscopy can be used to address various wrist conditions, including ligament tears, cartilage injuries, ganglion cysts, and arthritis. It offers the advantage of smaller incisions, reduced postoperative pain, faster recovery times, and potentially better outcomes compared to traditional open surgery.
