Transforming Lives with Shoulder Arthroscopy (Single)
Shoulder arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to diagnose and treat problems inside the shoulder joint. It involves inserting a small camera, called an arthroscope, into the shoulder joint through a small incision. This allows the surgeon to view the inside of the joint on a video screen and guide miniature surgical instruments to repair damage such as torn rotator cuffs, labral tears, and bone spurs. The procedure typically results in less pain and a quicker recovery compared to traditional open surgery.
