Knee Arthroscopy | ACL Reconstruction | Albuquerque Knee Specialist

http://newmexicokneesurgery.com Albuquerque knee specialist Dr. James Lubowitz dedicates himself to providing educational information for patients seeking practical knowledge on injuries and treatments related to the knee. The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is one of four major ligaments in the knee. The ACL assists in major movements in the knee. When the ACL is injured it can cause extreme instability in the knee. If Dr. Lubowitz determines that ACL reconstruction is needed then knee arthroscopy is an effective and efficient way to treat an ACL injury. Knee arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical technique that involves the use of a fiber optic camera (smaller than a pen), which is put into the joint through a keyhole sized arthroscopic portals. The arthroscopic camera allows Dr. Lubowitz to gain a complete visual of the inside of the knee joint as the image is displayed and viewed on a high definition (HD) television. While inside the knee joint, additional instruments will be inserted through another portal so that Dr. Lubowitz can feel and assess the knee structures. This will allow for a better diagnosis as well as proper steps to repair, reconstruct, or remove damaged tissue. ACL reconstruction has come a long way - from open surgery to knee arthroscopy - the effectiveness of arthroscopy has allowed for major advancements in the field of arthroscopy.
