Note
Shoulder arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to diagnose and treat various shoulder joint conditions. Similar to knee arthroscopy, this technique involves the use of an arthroscope—a small, flexible tube with a camera at the end. The arthroscope is inserted into the shoulder joint through small incisions, allowing the surgeon to visualize the interior of the joint on a monitor and perform necessary procedures. Shoulder arthroscopy is commonly used to address issues such as rotator cuff tears, labral tears, shoulder impingement, and inflammation of the synovium.
