The OIP Advantage:
OIP doctors may combine arthroscopic and standard surgical techniques to
remove inflamed lining in the elbow or wrist. This surgical combination
may also be used for the release of carpal tunnel, the repair of torn ligaments,
and the removal of loose bone or cartilage in the wrist. Arthroscopic surgery
is less invasive and patients generally recover more quickly. Most patients
have their arthroscopic surgery as outpatients and are
home several hours later.
