Elbow Arthroscopy

Elbow Arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure performed to diagnose and treat various elbow conditions. It involves the use of a small camera, called an arthroscope, and specialized instruments inserted through tiny incisions in the elbow joint to visualize and treat the underlying problem.
When you undergo Elbow Arthroscopy with Dr. Hans J. Poessel, a highly skilled and experienced Orthopaedic Surgeon, you can expect the following comprehensive approach:

1. Accurate Diagnosis: Dr. Poessel will begin by thoroughly evaluating your elbow condition, including a detailed discussion of your symptoms, medical history, and a comprehensive physical examination. Diagnostic imaging tests, such as X-rays, MRI scans, or CT scans, may be utilized to assess the underlying cause of your elbow pain and determine the most appropriate treatment plan.

2. Minimally Invasive Procedure: Elbow Arthroscopy is performed under general anesthesia on an outpatient basis, meaning you can typically return home on the same day. Dr. Poessel will make small incisions around the elbow joint and insert the arthroscope, which transmits images of the internal structures to a monitor. By visualizing the elbow joint, Dr. Poessel can accurately diagnose the condition and perform the necessary surgical interventions.

3. Treatment Options: During the arthroscopic procedure, Dr. Poessel can address a variety of elbow conditions, such as ligament tears, cartilage injuries, loose bodies, osteochondritis dissecans, tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis), golfer’s elbow (medial epicondylitis), and elbow stiffness. The specific treatment will depend on your diagnosis. Dr. Poessel may repair or reconstruct ligaments, remove loose bodies or damaged cartilage, release tight structures, or perform other necessary procedures to restore elbow function.

4. Minimal Tissue Trauma and Faster Recovery: One of the significant advantages of Elbow Arthroscopy is the minimal tissue trauma associated with the procedure. The small incisions result in less pain, reduced scarring, and faster recovery compared to traditional open surgery. Most patients can resume light activities within a few weeks and return to more strenuous activities with proper rehabilitation and guidance.

5. Rehabilitation and Follow-up Care: Dr. Poessel recognizes the importance of postoperative rehabilitation in optimizing recovery and restoring elbow function. He will work closely with rehabilitation specialists to develop a personalized rehabilitation program tailored to your specific needs. Regular follow-up appointments will be scheduled to monitor your progress, adjust the rehabilitation plan as necessary, and ensure optimal outcomes.

6. Patient Education and Support: Dr. Poessel places great emphasis on patient education and ensures that you have a clear understanding of your elbow condition, the surgical procedure, and the expected outcomes. He will provide detailed instructions on postoperative care, activity modifications, and pain management strategies. Dr. Poessel will be available to answer your questions, provide guidance, and offer ongoing support throughout your treatment and recovery journey.
