arthroscopy
Arthroscopy is defined as the examination of the interior of a joint and is also called arthroendoscopy. This also involves treatment of upper and lower extremity injuries including arthroscopy of the knee, ankle, shoulder, elbow, and carpal tunnel. Arthroscopic repair uses multiple small incisions (portals) and arthroscopic technology to visualize and repair, rather than the more invasive, traditional open repair. This less invasive surgery benefits patient by decreasing pain from surgery, decreasing post-operative stiffness, decreasing operative blood loss and decreasing length of hospital stay.

Arthroscopy is a surgical procedure in which a small fiberoptic telescope (arthroscope) is inserted into a joint. Fluid is then inserted into the joint to distend the joint and to allow for the visualization of the structures within that joint. Usually the surgery is viewed on a monitor so that the whole operating team is aware of the type of surgical procedure that is being performed.

New product innovation in arthroscopic surgery is the heart and soul of Biotek, which has resulted in the development of wide range of products for arthroscopic and minimally invasive orthopaedic surgical procedures. Our goal is to make technically demanding surgical procedures easier, safer and reproducible.

Biotek offers a complete line of knee arthroscopy products working in conjunction with some of the industry's most innovative surgeons. We focus our research and development efforts on technique-specific devices for Cruciate and Meniscal Reconstruction and repair systems, Graft Harvesting, Tunnel Preparation, Implants as well as Meniscal associated accessories.

Biotek Shoulder Arthroscopy products include an extensive line of anchor systems, suture passing instrumentation, manual instruments and various accessories.
