Shoulder arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that allows orthopedic surgeons to visualize, diagnose, and treat problems inside the shoulder joint. Using a small camera called an arthroscope, surgeons can view the shoulder joint on a screen and perform necessary repairs through tiny incisions, resulting in less pain and faster recovery compared to traditional open surgery.
Shoulder arthroscopy is recommended for various conditions, including:
Rotator cuff tears: Repairing torn tendons in the shoulder.
Shoulder impingement syndrome: Relieving pain caused by rubbing of shoulder muscles against the top part of the shoulder blade.
Labral tears: Repairing tears in the cartilage surrounding the shoulder socket.
Frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis): Releasing tightness and stiffness in the shoulder joint.
Shoulder instability: Addressing recurring shoulder dislocations.
Bone spurs or loose cartilage: Removing or smoothing irregularities causing pain or limited movement.
Before the surgery, a thorough evaluation is conducted, including:
Detailed medical history
Physical examination of the shoulder
Imaging studies, such as MRI or CT scans, if necessary
Shoulder arthroscopy is typically performed under general anesthesia and involves:
Making small incisions around the shoulder.
Inserting the arthroscope to visualize the joint.
Using specialized instruments to repair or remove damaged tissues.
Closing the incisions with sutures or sterile strips.
The procedure usually takes about 1 to 2 hours, depending on the complexity.
After surgery, patients are advised to:
Wear a sling to immobilize the shoulder for a few days.
Apply ice packs to reduce swelling.
Take prescribed medications for pain management.
Begin physical therapy as recommended to restore mobility and strength.
Undergoing shoulder arthroscopy can lead to:
Reduced postoperative pain and scarring.
Shorter hospital stay and quicker recovery.
Improved shoulder function and range of motion.
Accurate diagnosis and targeted treatment of shoulder issues.
As with any surgical procedure, shoulder arthroscopy carries potential risks, including:
Infection
Bleeding
Nerve or blood vessel damage
Stiffness or loss of motion
Incomplete relief of symptoms
At MedEase, our experienced surgeons take every precaution to minimize these risks and ensure a safe surgical experience.
Recovery from shoulder arthroscopy varies among individuals but generally follows this timeline:
First Week: Swelling and discomfort are common; patients should rest and avoid strenuous activities.
2 to 6 Weeks: Most patients can return to light activities, with significant improvement in shoulder function.
3 to 6 Months: Complete healing of shoulder tissues, with full return to normal activities.
Regular follow-up visits are essential to monitor healing and address any concerns.
