Advanced Minimally Invasive Wrist Arthroscopy by Dr. Hemendra Agrawal

Wrist arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to diagnose and treat various wrist joint problems using a small camera (arthroscope) and specialized instruments inserted through tiny incisions.
The wrist is a complex joint made up of multiple small bones, ligaments, and cartilage structures that allow a wide range of motion. Injuries or degenerative conditions can lead to pain, instability, and reduced function.
Dr. Hemendra Agrawal performs advanced wrist arthroscopy using high-definition visualization to accurately identify and treat joint issues such as ligament tears, cartilage damage, and inflammation.
This technique allows for precise treatment with minimal tissue damage, resulting in faster recovery, less pain, and improved outcomes compared to traditional open surgery.
When is this procedure recommended?
Wrist ligament injuries (TFCC tears)
Chronic wrist pain and instability
Cartilage damage in the wrist joint
Wrist impingement syndrome
Loose bodies in the joint
Synovitis (inflammation of joint lining)
Post-traumatic wrist stiffness
Early degenerative wrist arthritis
A detailed walkthrough of the surgical process
Clinical examination, X-rays, MRI, and necessary blood tests are performed to assess the condition.
The procedure is done under regional or general anesthesia. The wrist is positioned and traction may be applied for better visualization.
Small incisions (portals) are made around the wrist, and an arthroscope is inserted to visualize the joint.
The surgeon evaluates ligaments, cartilage, and joint surfaces to identify the problem.
Depending on the condition, procedures like ligament repair, TFCC repair, removal of loose bodies, or synovectomy are performed.
Incisions are closed with sutures, and a sterile dressing or splint is applied.
