Wrist Arthroscopy
Cause
The painful wrist is a common problem and very often the cause may be unknown. Wrist arthroscopy offers the possibility to look inside the wrist in a minimally invasive way to detect the cause of pain and repair immediately if possible.
Treatment
A surgical incision is made that is 1mm long. This minute incision creates minimal wounding and contributes to faster recuperation speeds. No sutures are needed.
Hospital Admission: Outpatient
Recuperation Time: Depends on the diagnosis
Post Surgery
Physiotherapy depends on the diagnosis.
