Karl Storz Hopkins Arthroscope 28100AA

This is a used Karl Storz Hopkins Arthroscope, model 28100AA, a rigid rod-lens telescope designed for orthopedic joint visualization during minimally invasive procedures. The Hopkins optical system is well regarded for its bright, high-resolution image transmission, which allows surgeons to clearly evaluate cartilage, ligaments, and joint surfaces during knee, shoulder, and other arthroscopic interventions. Its compact diameter and precise angle of view are built for maneuverability within tight joint spaces while maintaining excellent field clarity. This scope is commonly used in outpatient surgical centers, orthopedic practices, and hospital operating rooms that perform routine or advanced arthroscopic surgery. It pairs well with standard Karl Storz camera heads, light sources, and video couplers, making it a straightforward addition to an existing endoscopy tower. The rod-lens construction is prized for durability under repeated sterilization cycles when properly maintained. Being sold in pre-owned condition, this unit has been inspected for optical clarity and mechanical integrity. It represents a cost-effective option for practices looking to expand their arthroscopy capacity or maintain a backup scope without the expense of new equipment. Buyers should confirm compatibility with their existing camera and light source systems prior to purchase.
