Arthroscopies is a surgical technique that began to be performed in the 1970s and allows viewing the inside of joints through a two-millimeter access or incision to introduce a high-tech, minimally sized camera.

Through another equally small incision, all kinds of tiny, varied, and highly flexible instruments are introduced to perform complex interventions that, before the existence of arthroscopy, required much larger incisions, general anesthesia, and longer hospital stays, in addition to post-surgical immobilizations and a slow recovery that was accompanied by painful rehabilitation.

Currently, this treatment is performed on an OUTPATIENT basis, with LOCAL or REGIONAL ANESTHESIA, WITHOUT post-treatment IMMOBILIZATIONS, allowing for a return to moderate activities almost immediately and without pain, thanks to the application of GROWTH FACTORS within the treatment and the prompt rehabilitation, enabling the orthopedic surgeon to perform more sophisticated techniques that surpass in effectiveness those performed just 10 years ago.
