What Is Nano Arthroscopy?

Nano, or needle arthroscopy, is a revolutionary approach to minimally invasive surgery (MIS). Using a tiny, high-quality camera for enhanced visualization, along with other instrumentation, a surgeon can diagnose and treat various injuries.

Recovery Timeline

Patients can usually go home the same day after a Nano arthroscopy procedure, based on the doctor's recommendation. Depending on each your child's specific situation, their doctor may recommend crutches or another device after surgery.

Nano arthroscopy is often considered a same-day procedure, meaning your child will most likely be able to return home the same day as the surgery.

While patients may find that they are ready to resume activity shortly after surgery, their doctor will provide a customized treatment plan for a more comfortable recovery experience.

With Nano surgery, your child may be ready to return to the field or classroom quickly. Talk with your physician to see if Nano surgery is right for your child.

Due to the minimally invasive nature of Nano arthroscopy, your child may experience a quick recovery with fast return to activity after their procedure.1
