Ankle Arthroscopy at Lenmed Ahmed Kathrada Private Hospital

Lenmed Ahmed Kathrada Private Hospital provides specialized Ankle Arthroscopy with an emphasis on precise joint visualization, minimally invasive treatment, and restoration of ankle mobility. Established in 1984, the COHSASA, ISQua accredited hospital is based in Johannesburg, South Africa and has 254 beds supported by modern orthopedic and rehabilitation facilities.

Ankle Arthroscopy is performed by inserting a miniature camera and specialized surgical instruments through small incisions around the ankle. The technique allows the surgeon to assess the joint surfaces and address selected abnormalities such as cartilage lesions, loose fragments, inflamed synovial tissue, or anterior and posterior ankle impingement. Before surgery, clinical examination and imaging help determine whether arthroscopy is appropriate. Following treatment, rehabilitation and progressive return to activity are planned according to the patient's condition and the procedure performed.
