Joint disorders are diagnosed and treated via arthroscopy. A buttonhole-sized incision is made, and a surgeon inserts a narrow tube connected to a fiber-optic video camera through it. A high-definition video display receives the view from inside your joint. With arthroscopy, the surgeon can view the interior of your joint without cutting a significant incision. With the help of additional tiny incisions and pencil-thin surgical instruments, surgeons can even fix some types of joint injury during arthroscopy. The Greek words "arthro" (joint) and "skopein" are the origin of the word "arthroscopy" (to look). The phrase means "to see within the joint." An orthopedic surgeon does arthroscopic surgery by making a tiny incision in the patient's skin and inserting pencil-sized instruments that have a small lens and lighting system to magnify and illuminate the structures inside the joint. To reach the end of the arthroscope that is put into the joint, light is sent using fiber optics.
