“Arthroscopic surgery can be a safe, minimally invasive way to address joint pathology. !!Despite its efficacy, however, complications may occur.!!Proper training and care are required to minimize complications. !!When complications do occur, it is vital that the surgeon maximize communication with the patient to explain what occurred, how it will be handled, and what the impact might be on the expected outcome.”
