Arthroscopic surgery Q & A

What is diagnostic arthroscopy?

Arthroscopy started as a diagnostic procedure, but it’s now evolved into a viable alternative to many types of open surgery. Some of the many procedures that Dr. Elman may perform arthroscopically are:

  • Shoulder rotator cuff repair
  • Labral surgery
  • Meniscus surgery
  • Ligament repair
  • Ligament reconstruction
  • Inflamed synovium (inner joint lining) removal
  • Loose body removal

In some cases, Dr. Elman can diagnose and repair the problem during the same arthroscopic procedure.
