Arthroscopy

Dr. Patrick Tyrance is an expert at performing arthroscopy to accurately diagnose and repair injuries and problems affecting the joints, and use it frequently for the following:

This refers to surgery to repair a torn rotator cuff. In the majority of cases, this involves re-attaching the tendon to the upper arm bone, otherwise known as the humerus. In some cases, the injury may be a partial tear which would require a smoothing procedure known as a debridement. If the injury is a complete rotator cuff tear, the surgery would involve stitching the tendon back. 

Repair of a torn meniscus usually involves arthroscopy, also known as keyhole surgery. This procedure consists of a surgeon inserting a scope through an incision in the injured area to examine the joint and remove any damaged cartilage. 

 Reconstruction of the Anterior Cruciate Ligament in the Knee, also known as the ACL, is when a torn ligament is replaced with a band of tissue that generally connects muscle to the tendon. This requires a graft tendon to be used from another part of your knee or a donor (usually a deceased donor). 

This procedure is intended to remove the bone or cartilage that has broken during an injury and has affected the mobility of the joints. This is done using several techniques such as arthoscopy which we specialize in. 

There are various ways to treat torn ligaments. It really depends on how weakened or destroyed they are. In some cases ligament reconstruction may be required which involves replacing the damaged ligament with a harvested tendon that may come from your peroneus brevis tendon found in the foot.

Arthroscopy, or Arthroscopic Surgery, is a minimally invasive procedure to view, diagnose and treat problems inside a joint. This modern technique for many orthopedic injuries replaces the large incisions, hospital stays and prolonged recovery periods of the past. Arthroscopic Surgery offers you some of the following advantages:
  • A fast recovery time

  • Minimal discomfort

  • Minimal scarring

  • In most cases no overnight hospital stay

Arthroscopic surgery offers several benefits, including faster recovery time, minimal discomfort, minimal scarring, and often no need for an overnight hospital stay.
