Elbow arthroscopy
Abstract
Elbow arthroscopy has made rapid advances in recent years. The improvement in the arthroscopic technique, as well as the development of technically advanced equipment, has made elbow arthroscopy very attractive to orthopaedic surgeons. It is important to realize that elbow arthroscopy is a modality that should be respected. This demanding procedure requires keen awareness of the elbow's anatomy and the technical arthroscopic approach to the elbow joint. With this careful approach in mind, the orthopaedist will find that elbow arthroscopy can be a valuable tool.
