And depending on the procedure, the surgery is divided into three groups.

Reconstruction with allograft – An allograft or piece of the ligament from a donor’s body is used to reconstruct the affected ligament.

Precautions and Recovery Time of Arthroscopy Surgery

Arthroscopy is an effective and popular surgical method for treating several joint problems. But it is also a highly-sensitive method, and only experts can successfully perform arthroscopy. At SportsMed, we have an expert surgeon dr. Vikram Sharma for quality arthroscopy surgery in Bangladesh. We also recommend some precautions in the post and pre-surgery periods to prevent potential risks and increase the success rate of the surgery. 

Pre-Surgery Precautions:
  • Quit Alcohol and smoking before a few weeks of surgery.
  • Perform muscle strengthening exercises for flexibility.
  • Diabetes control.
  • Blood sugar and pressure control.
  • Balanced diet.
  • Keeping water intake high. 
Post-Surgery Precautions:
  • Completely restricted mobility for the first few days or weeks.
  • Never put weight or stress on your affected joint.
  • Keep your surgery wounds dry and use a sponge for cleaning.
  • Do not move, shake or bend the joint immediately after surgery. 
  • Follow all the instructions of your doctor and stick to a healthy diet. 

Arthroscopy refers to small invasive surgeries that take little time for recovery than traditional surgeries, but that does not mean you will be able to do everything immediately after surgery. Arthroscopic surgeries can take up to 3 to 6 months for complete recovery. If your injury is mild or moderate, you can expect a recovery in less than three months (cases without complications). But it can take 20 to 24 weeks or six months if your issue is severe or complicated. In this recovery period, you need to be cautious and maintain all of your doctor's instructions for better results. 

Our Effective Approach for Arthroscopy Surgery In Bangladesh

Arthroscopy can treat different joint problems, including injury, disease, or malformations. At SportsMed, we offer arthroscopy as our most effective approach for treating several orthopaedic issues. Also, we offer the best arthroscopy surgery in Bangladesh with our advanced medical equipment and expert surgeon Dr. Vikram Sharma. He is the most renowned arthroscopic surgeon in Southeast Asia and has handled many critical operations efficiently. 

We suggest arthroscopy to patients when our non-surgical treatments fail or seem incapable of treating the problem. Before surgery, we use MRI, x-ray, CT scan, and blood pressure and sugar check. Your surgery is scheduled after the diagnosis. Our anesthesiologist gives you spinal or general anaesthesia and monitors the surgery before the surgery. Then, a surgeon makes small incisions on the affected joint and inserts a tiny camera and special surgical tools. The micro camera or arthroscope takes HD internal pictures and videos of the joint for the surgery. A surgeon observes the images and uses operational tools for cutting and sewing. 

We also recommend some strict precautions after surgery, like mobility restrictions, using crutches, and practicing muscle exercise to avoid unnecessary complications. We do not provide much medication and focus more on natural recovery.
