Arthroscopic root repair is a minimally invasive knee surgery used to reattach a torn meniscus root back to bone. A meniscus “root” is the anchoring point where the meniscus connects to the tibia (shinbone). This procedure is commonly used for certain medial or lateral meniscus root tears that can destabilize the meniscus. It is performed using an arthroscope, a small camera inserted through small incisions around the knee.

Arthroscopic meniscus repair is a minimally invasive knee surgery that aims to stitch and heal a torn meniscus. The meniscus is a C-shaped cartilage cushion between the thigh bone (femur) and shin bone (tibia). This procedure is commonly used in sports medicine and orthopedic care after certain meniscus tears. It is performed using an arthroscope, a small camera inserted through small incisions.

Arthroscopic partial meniscectomy is a minimally invasive knee surgery that removes a damaged portion of the meniscus. It is performed using a small camera (arthroscope) and specialized instruments through small incisions. It is commonly used to address certain meniscal tears that are causing pain, catching, or mechanical symptoms. It is one of the most frequently discussed arthroscopic procedures in sports medicine and general orthopedics.

Arthroscopic meniscectomy is a minimally invasive knee procedure that removes part of a torn meniscus. It is most often performed to address symptoms like catching, locking, or pain from an unstable meniscal tear. Surgeons use a small camera (arthroscope) and slender instruments through small incisions around the knee. It is common in orthopedics and sports medicine when non-surgical care has not been sufficient or a tear is mechanically problematic.

Knee arthroscopy is a minimally invasive procedure used to look inside the knee joint with a small camera. It is commonly used in orthopedics and sports medicine to diagnose and treat certain knee problems. Small incisions allow specialized instruments to work inside the joint without a large open cut. It is often discussed when knee pain, swelling, locking, or instability persists despite initial care.

Knee lavage is a process of washing out the knee joint with sterile fluid. It is used to remove or dilute material inside the joint, such as blood, debris, or inflammatory fluid. Knee lavage can be done with a needle in a clinic setting or during arthroscopy in an operating room. It is most commonly discussed in the context of swollen, painful knees and certain joint diseases.

Joint aspiration is a procedure where a clinician removes fluid from a joint using a sterile needle and syringe. It is most commonly performed in large joints such as the knee, but it can be used in other joints as well. It may be done to help diagnose the cause of swelling or pain, and sometimes to reduce pressure in the joint. In clinical settings, it may also be paired with laboratory testing of the fluid and/or an injection.

Arthrocentesis knee is a procedure where a clinician inserts a needle into the knee joint to remove joint fluid. It is also called knee joint aspiration. It is commonly used in orthopedics, sports medicine, emergency care, and rheumatology. It can be done for diagnosis, symptom relief, or both.

Aspiration knee effusion is the removal of excess fluid from the knee joint using a needle and syringe. It is also called **knee aspiration** or **arthrocentesis**. It is commonly used in orthopedics, sports medicine, emergency care, and rheumatology. It can be done to help diagnose the cause of swelling or to reduce pressure and discomfort.

A Fluoroscopy-guided knee injection is a knee injection performed while using real-time X-ray imaging to guide the needle. It is most often used to place medication accurately into the knee joint space or a targeted region around the knee. Clinicians commonly use it in orthopedic, sports medicine, radiology, and pain-management settings. It can be used for both diagnosis (finding a pain source) and treatment (reducing symptoms).
