Arthroscopic Shoulder Surgery
What is Arthroscopic Shoulder Surgery?
Arthroscopic shoulder surgery is a minimally invasive procedure used to diagnose and treat issues within the shoulder joint. This technique involves using a small camera, called an arthroscope, and surgical instruments inserted through tiny incisions. It is commonly recommended for conditions like rotator cuff tears, shoulder impingement, and labral tears.
Why Is Arthroscopic Shoulder Surgery Necessary?
Arthroscopic shoulder surgery becomes necessary when:
- Ineffective Non-Surgical Treatments: When traditional treatments such as rest, medication, and physical therapy fail to alleviate severe shoulder pain and discomfort, indicating the need for a more targeted surgical approach.
- Functional Limitations: When shoulder pain or dysfunction severely restricts movement and impairs the ability to perform everyday tasks, like reaching overhead or lifting objects, leading to a diminished quality of life.
- Significant Joint Damage: When there is considerable damage to the shoulder joint, including rotator cuff tears, labral tears, or cartilage damage, which causes pain and limits shoulder function, requiring surgical repair or intervention.
- Persistent Inflammation: When chronic inflammation and stiffness in the shoulder do not respond to conservative treatments, leading to ongoing discomfort and reduced mobility that necessitates a surgical solution to restore joint health and function.
