FAQschevron down

What are the joints that can be viewed with an arthroscopy?

Although the inside of nearly all joints can be viewed with an arthroscopy, six joints are most frequently examined with this instrument. These include the knee, shoulder, elbow, ankle, hip, and wrist. As engineers make advances in electronic technology and orthopaedic surgeons develop new techniques, other joints may be treated more frequently in the future.


Why is arthroscopy necessary?

Diagnosing injuries and disease begins with a thorough medical history, physical examination, and usually X-rays. Additional tests such as an MRI, or CT scan also may be needed. Through the arthroscopy, a final diagnosis is made which may be more accurate than through "open" surgery or from X-ray studies.


Will physical therapy be required after surgery?

Getting a full range of motion, strength and flexibility back after surgery usually takes time. That's where pre-operative exercise and education and post-operative physical therapy programs come in-to ensure you're physically and emotionally prepared for surgery and to maximise your recovery after surgery.


I Don't Have Health Insurance?

If you are not in a Health Fund, but wish to proceed with surgery, you have other options which include Join the Public Hospital Waiting List, or Pay for the operation yourself (self-fund)
