THE ARTHROSCOPE

A New Method of Examining Joints

HARRY FINKELSTEIN M.D.1 and LEO MAYER M.D.1

1 Attending Surgeons, Hospital for Joint Diseases

In this preliminary report a method of direct visualization of the joint and removal of specimens of tissue by means of an arthroscope has been presented and three clinical cases reported in which this method has been used. Though the value of the method is at the present time problematical, our experiences, inadequate though they are, have encouraged us in the belief that this instrument will enable more accurate diagnosis of joint lesions than any method previously devised.
