Targeted Wrist Surgery with Faster Recovery and Less Disruption
Arthroscopy is a surgical technique that uses tiny incisions and a small camera to treat problems inside joints. For the wrist, this method allows orthopedic surgeons to diagnose and treat cartilage damage, ligament injuries, and other conditions without open surgery.
At Michigan Orthopedic Center, our fellowship-trained hand and wrist surgeons use arthroscopy to perform precise repairs with less tissue disruption. This approach typically leads to a quicker recovery, smaller scars, and less postoperative pain.
What Wrist Arthroscopy Can Address
Wrist arthroscopy is often recommended for patients with pain, swelling, or instability that does not improve with non-surgical care. It’s commonly used to treat:
- Soft tissue injuries inside the joint
- Persistent joint inflammation
- Mechanical symptoms such as catching, clicking, or stiffness
During the procedure, a small camera (arthroscope) is inserted into the joint through a small incision. Specialized instruments are used through additional incisions to perform the necessary repairs.
