Home / Arthroscopic Meniscectomy
Arthroscopic Meniscectomy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure performed by Dr. Manu Gautam to treat tears in the meniscus, a cartilage in the knee joint. During the procedure, a small camera called an arthroscope is inserted into the knee joint through small incisions. This allows Dr. Gautam to visualize the inside of the knee and assess the extent of the meniscal tear.
Using specialized instruments, Dr. Gautam then trims or removes the damaged part of the meniscus, leaving behind healthy tissue. This helps alleviate pain, improve knee function, and prevent further damage to the joint. Arthroscopic Meniscectomy is typically performed on an outpatient basis, meaning patients can often return home the same day as the surgery.
Dr. Manu Gautam is a skilled orthopedic surgeon with extensive experience in performing arthroscopic procedures.

With Dr. Manu Gautam’s expertise and dedication to patient care, individuals can expect a swift recovery and a return to their normal activities with reduced knee pain and improved joint function.
