What Is the Cost of Arthroscopic Surgery in India?
The cost of arthroscopic surgery in India typically ranges from $1,500 to $7,000 USD, depending on the hospital, city, and type of procedure.
Arthroscopic surgery, or arthroscopy, is keyhole surgery in which a small camera is passed into a joint through small cuts. It can be used on the knee, shoulder, hip, elbow, wrist and ankle. The cost usually depends on:
- Joint treated: knee arthroscopy is the most common.
- Procedure performed: diagnosis, trimming, repair or reconstruction.
- Anaesthetic: usually general anaesthetic.
- Physiotherapy: after surgery.
Arthroscopic surgery covers many procedures. Ask for a quote based on the joint and procedure planned.
