Advanced Minimally Invasive Corrective Arthroscopy by Dr. Hemendra Agrawal

Corrective arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to treat and correct various joint problems using an arthroscope and specialized instruments. Unlike diagnostic arthroscopy, which focuses on identifying issues, corrective arthroscopy actively treats the underlying condition within the joint.
This procedure is commonly used to repair damaged cartilage, ligaments, or tendons, remove loose bodies, correct joint impingement, and address structural abnormalities causing pain and dysfunction.
Dr. Hemendra Agrawal performs advanced corrective arthroscopy using high-definition visualization and precision techniques to ensure accurate treatment with minimal tissue damage.
The minimally invasive nature of this procedure allows for smaller incisions, faster recovery, less pain, and improved outcomes compared to traditional open surgeries.
When is this procedure recommended?
Cartilage damage or defects
Meniscus tears and ligament injuries
Joint impingement syndromes
Loose bodies within the joint
Synovitis (inflamed joint lining)
Early arthritis requiring surgical correction
Joint stiffness and restricted mobility
Failed conservative treatments
A detailed walkthrough of the surgical process
Detailed clinical examination, imaging (X-ray/MRI), and pre-surgical planning are done.
The procedure is performed under regional or general anesthesia. The joint is sterilized and prepared.
Small incisions (portals) are made, and an arthroscope is inserted to visualize the joint.
The surgeon identifies the damaged structures within the joint.
Procedures such as repair, trimming, removal, or reconstruction of tissues are performed based on the condition.
Incisions are closed with sutures, and a sterile dressing is applied.
