Knee
Your knees deserve special treatment, after all, they are the ones that take you for your goals and objectives.
Knee arthroscopy
Arthroscopy is done through small incisions. During the procedure, the arthroscope (an instrument with a small camera about the size of a pencil) is inserted into your knee joint. The arthroscope sends the image to a monitor. On the monitor, the structures of the knee can be seen in great detail.
During the surgery I use arthroscopy to feel, repair, or remove injured tissue. To do this, small surgical tools are inserted through other incisions around your knee.
Commonly uses to review the cartilage, repair some meniscus or reconstruct a knee ligament.
If you want to see how the procedure is, I invite you to watch it on my YouTube channel

(Prosthesis)
A knee prosthesis is the replacement of the joint by a synthetic piece, through a surgical intervention. It is an implant that is placed in the damaged structure and replaces its function, allowing the patient to move the joint again, eliminating the pain that they may have. During the intervention, the damaged bone and cartilage are removed.
