Closed Caption - Risks for Knee Arthroscopy With Loose Body Removal -- Abnormal Scarring

You will have a scar following this procedure. Most often this scar heals without any problems. However, it is possible that you will develop an abnormal scar, especially if you have a history of keloids, which is a scar that is thicker than normal. If you are concerned about these issues, you will need to consult with a dermatologist and your physician about your specific case. The appearance of the scar, however, does not have anything to do with the results of your operation. Even patients with enlarged scars can have excellent surgical results.
