http://www.PreOp.com Patient Education Company Before your doctor can insert the arthroscope, the surgical team will inject a clear fluid into the joint. This fluid will inflate the interior space, and will help your doctor by providing an unobstructed view. Patient Education Once in place the arthroscope... will provide video images ... so the surgeon can insert the instruments through one or more small openings. After inspecting the extent of the damage to the meniscus, your doctor will repair the meniscus with tiny staples, ...or remove it altogether. Finally, all the instruments are withdrawn... and the clear fluid is allowed to drain from the knee. Following surgery, sterile dressings are applied. To aid in healing, your knee may be stabilized with a brace and you will be encouraged to use crutches during the recovery process. Patient Education Company Patient Education Company
