RESUMEN Objetivo: el objetivo de este estudio fue realizar una encuesta de la actividad artroscópica en el territorio español para el año 2014. Material y metodología: se obtuvo información estadística a través de una plataforma informática de los diferentes centros hospitalarios españoles, públicos y privados, donde se realizaba dicha actividad. Los datos estaban basados en un perfil general, otro referente a la actividad y un tercero referido a datos concretos de procedimientos artroscópicos por articulación. Se registraron 59.897 artroscopias que suponían un 30,8% de la muestra posible, lo que supone un importante incremento de actividad artroscópica en relación con estudios previos. Resultados: las articulaciones cuantitativamente más intervenidas fueron la rodilla y el hombro por ese orden, con un elevado protagonismo de los procedimientos en cirugía mayor ambulatoria con igual presencia en centros públicos y privados. Se detectó una aparición emergente de otras articulaciones como cadera, tobillo y mano-mu-ABSTRACT Epidemiology of arthroscopic procedures in Spain. Results of the 2014 arthroscope activity survey Objective: we perform a survey of arthroscopic activity in the Spanish territory for the year 2014. Material and methodology: statistical information was obtained through a computer platform of the different Spanish public and private hospitals where this activity was carried out. The data were based on a general profile, another on activity and a third on specific data on arthroscopic procedures by articulation. A total of 59,897 recorded arthroscopies were obtained, accounting for 30.8% of the possible sample. Which represents an important increase of arthroscopic activity in relation to previous studies. Results: the quantitatively most important joints were the knee and shoulder in that order, with a high profile of procedures in ambulatory major surgery with equal presence in public and private centers. An emergent appearance of other joints such as hip, ankle and hand-wrist was detected
