Shoulder Arthroscopy
Your shoulder is a complex joint that is capable of more motion than any other joint in your body. It is made up of three bones: your upper arm bone (humerus), your shoulder blade (scapula), and your collarbone (clavicle).
Arthroscopy is a procedure that orthopaedic surgeons use to inspect, diagnose, and treat problems inside a joint.
Because the arthroscope and surgical instruments are thin, we use very small incisions (cuts), rather than the larger incisions needed for standard, open surgery. This results in less pain for patients and shortens the time it takes to recover and return to favorite activities.
Rotator Cuff Surgery
The rotator cuff is a group of muscles and tendons that form a cuff over the shoulder joint. These muscles and tendons hold the arm in its joint and help the shoulder joint to move. The tendons can be torn from overuse or injury.
Reasons rotator cuff repair may be done include:
- You have shoulder pain when you rest or at night, and it has not improved with exercises over 3 to 4 months.
- You are active and use your shoulder for sports or work.
- You have weakness and are unable to do everyday activities.
Bankart Surgery
A Bankart Shoulder Repair procedure is a surgical technique for the repair of recurrent shoulder joint dislocations. Within the procedure, the worn out ligaments are re-attached to the proper place in the shoulder joint, using the objective of rebuilding normal function.
Bankart Shoulder Preparation
The doctor needs to be informed of health issues, including allergies and the non-prescription and prescription drugs.
- Initial Surgical Consultation.
- Complete Physical Examination.
- Physical Therapy.
- Preparation for Surgery.
SLAP Tear
SLAP tear surgery, or arthroscopic SLAP tear surgery, is often done to repair damaged shoulder cartilage, called a SLAP tear. SLAP stands for Superior Labrum, Anterior to Posterior.
SLAP tear surgery is recommended when:
- You still have SLAP tear symptoms despite non-surgical treatment.
- A specific injury caused your tear and it affects your shoulder stability.
- Your SLAP tear stems from overusing your shoulder.
- You have a SLAP tear because you regularly play sports in where you throw, such as baseball.
Biceps Tendinitis
Biceps tendinitis is an inflammation or irritation of the upper biceps tendon. Also called the long head of the biceps tendon, this strong, cord-like structure connects the biceps muscle to the bone in the shoulder socket.
Pain in the front of the shoulder and weakness are common symptoms of biceps tendinitis. They can often be relieved with rest and medication. In severe cases, you may need surgery to repair the tendon.
The injury is more likely to occur if the shoulder is struck with the hand outstretched. Despite the scapula pulling on the clavicle during impact, the clavicle remains in its general fixed position because of the sternoclavicular joint ligaments. The separation is classified into 6 types, with 1 through 3 increasing in severity, and 4 through 6 being the most severe.
Generally an X-RAY is good enough to confirm the diagnosis and quantify the severity . Sometimes MRI is also required.
