An arthroscopic video camera system especially constructed to utilize a compact miniature CCD chip type of color video camera for high resolution and high light sensitivity. A disposable sterile plastic housing is provided for the camera. Prior to the arthroscopic procedure, the camera is placed in the sterile plastic housing, and is connected through a sterile electric cord to an electronic control unit. A gas sterilized adapter is attached to the front end of the camera, and the adapter is plugged into an arthroscopic mounting bracket, and a sterilized light cord extending from a remote light source is then plugged into the mounting bracket. Finally, a selected arthroscope is also plugged into the mounting bracket to be illuminated through the mounting bracket by light from the remote source, and to provide images through the mounting bracket for the video camera.
