| The arthroscope also enables a joint to be washed out easily, and this in itself may be valuable. |
|
| When the surgery is complete, your surgeon removes the arthroscope and any other instruments and flushes the joint with a saline solution. |
|
| After prepping and draping the patient's extremity, the surgeon makes a stab incision and inserts the arthroscope into the knee joint through a standard inferolateral portal. |
|
| Note: A standard Ø 2.7 mm arthroscope with a 30° lens and isotonic electrolyte solution as the arthroscopy medium is recommended. |
|
| When Parker couldn't practice today, the Giants decided to do an arthroscope on the knee. |
|
| A television camera attached to the arthroscope allows the surgeon to see and work with great accuracy. |
|
| We believe this to be easier, safer, and more effective than trying to place the arthroscope sheath containing an obturator into the joint. |
|
| Arthroscopy uses an optical instrument called 4mm arthroscope that is inserted into the joint through the skin by a very small incision of 5 mm. |
|
| The spray nozzle is cut off from its connecting tubing, which is then connected to the arthroscope via a standard intravenous line. |
|
| This step was completed by switching the arthroscope to the anterior cannula while maintaining the thermal probe in the accessory posterior portal. |
|
| Olson underwent an exploratory arthroscope Tuesday, which found no cartilage damage. |
|
| Light is then transmitted through fiber optics to provide illumination, and the surgeon is able to see the interior of the joint by attaching a miniature television camera to the lens of the arthroscope. |
|
| If the injury had not been accessible with an arthroscope and open surgery had been necessary, it probably would have meant a lengthier and more complicated recovery. |
|
| But the location of Santana's tear was difficult to reach with an arthroscope, so the surgeon, Dr. David Altchek, the Mets' team physician, had to make an incision in the area of the tear. |
|
| As with Santana, the surgery had to be done with an incision because an arthroscope would not reach the tear, a procedure that adds months to the recovery period. |
|
| Most procedures are performed using an arthroscope, a fiber optic scope which is introduced into a joint space through a small incision in order to carry out diagnostic and treatment procedures within the joint. |
|
| The arthroscope is used to diagnose joint problems and surgical procedures can be performed at the same time through another keyhole incision if necessary as well as to perform surgery through small stab incisions. |
|
| I misread arthroscope asnanthroscope, a non-word, and proved the latter to be interesting. |
|
| The damaged portion is removed by means of instruments inserted through the arthroscope. |
|
| A doctor would only use the arthroscope to fix a torn labrum. |
|
|
|
| Arthroscopy is a minimallyinvasive surgical procedure, in which an arthroscope is used to examine and sometimes treat damage to the interior of a joint. |

|
| Bone was removed until a normal acetabular profile was evident with the arthroscope and a healthy bed of tissue for reattaching the labrum was evident. |
