  • Faster RecoveryBack to Activity

Knee arthroscopy is keyhole surgery: through small incisions, a fine camera and instruments let Dr. Yogish diagnose and repair injuries inside the knee with minimal disturbance to surrounding tissue. It is used to treat ligament tears, meniscus injuries and cartilage damage, often allowing a faster return to activity than open surgery.

Symptoms to watch for

  • A knee that locks, catches or gives way
  • Swelling after activity or a twisting injury
  • Pain along the joint line or a feeling of instability
  • Reduced range of motion after a sports injury

When treatment is considered

  • ACL tear affecting stability, especially in active patients
  • Meniscus tear causing locking, catching or persistent pain
  • Cartilage damage that hasn't settled with rest and physiotherapy
  • A confirmed structural injury that benefits from repair
The Approach

A careful, minimally invasive approach

Modern techniques that treat the problem while protecting the healthy tissue around it.

01

Precise diagnosis

A high-definition arthroscope shows the inside of the joint directly, allowing accurate assessment of ligaments, meniscus and cartilage.

02

ACL reconstruction

A torn ACL is reconstructed using a graft positioned to restore natural stability, so you can return to sport and daily activity with confidence.

03

Meniscus & cartilage repair

Where possible the meniscus is repaired rather than removed, preserving the knee's natural cushioning for the long term.

Questions & Answers

Advanced Knee Arthroscopy: your questions

Many knee arthroscopies are performed as day-care or short-stay procedures, so most patients go home the same or the next day.

Return to sport after ACL reconstruction is gradual and typically takes several months, guided by a structured rehabilitation programme and strength milestones.

Wherever the tear allows, the meniscus is repaired to preserve the knee's natural cushioning. The best option is confirmed during surgery.
