Shoulder Arthroscopy
Shoulder arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to diagnose and treat problems within the shoulder joint. It involves inserting a small camera (arthroscope) through tiny incisions, allowing the surgeon to view and repair damaged tissues such as ligaments, tendons, or cartilage with high precision.
This procedure is commonly used for conditions like rotator cuff tears, shoulder impingement, labral tears, and joint inflammation. Compared to open surgery, shoulder arthroscopy results in less pain, minimal scarring, and faster recovery, helping patients return to normal activities sooner.
