Cost of Knee Meniscectomy in India

A meniscectomy is used to remove all or part of the damaged knee cartilage, in order to relieve pain and improve the function and range of motion of the injured knee.

• Non-alignment of a knee
• Locked knee
• Big wear and tear

• Physical examination
• Imaging tests
• Blood tests

Treatment options:

Arthroscopic surgery: During the procedure, your surgeon will make a very small incision and insert a tiny camera — called an arthroscope — into your knee. This allows them to view the inside of the joint on a screen. The surgeon can then investigate a problem with the knee and, if necessary, correct the issue using small instruments within the arthroscope.

Open surgery: A large incision is made over your knee so your entire knee joint is exposed and examined to identify the tear so that it can be removed. And the incision is sewn.

• Infection

• Deep venous thrombosis
