Answer

Minimally invasive orthopaedic surgery is a surgical technique performed through small incisions using specialized instruments and cameras to treat bone and joint problems. Unlike traditional open surgery, it minimizes tissue damage, reduces blood loss, and promotes faster recovery.

1. How It Works
Surgeons use arthroscopes or advanced imaging guidance to view the joint internally and perform precise repairs without fully opening the joint.

2. Common Procedures
It is widely used for ligament reconstruction such as ACL surgery, meniscus repair, cartilage treatment, shoulder injuries, and even certain joint replacement procedures.

3. Benefits
Patients usually experience less pain, smaller scars, shorter hospital stay, lower infection risk, and quicker return to daily activities compared to conventional surgery.

4. Recovery
Rehabilitation is still important, but recovery time is generally faster due to reduced muscle and tissue disruption.
