What is Shoulder Arthroscopy?

Shoulder arthroscopy involves inserting a small camera called an arthroscope into the shoulder joint through tiny incisions. This allows the surgeon to view the joint structures — bones, ligaments, tendons, and cartilage — on a high-definition monitor. Through additional small incisions, miniature instruments are used to repair or remove damaged tissues.

The procedure helps treat a wide range of shoulder problems while reducing surgical trauma and recovery time.

  • Rotator cuff tear or partial tear
  • Shoulder impingement syndrome
  • Recurrent shoulder dislocation or instability
  • Labral tear (SLAP lesion, Bankart lesion)
  • Frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis)

Medical diagnosis procedure

Diagnosis and Evaluation Before Surgery

Before suggesting arthroscopy, the orthopedic surgeon performs:

  • Physical examination: To assess range of motion, strength, and shoulder stability
  • X-ray: To identify bone spurs or arthritis
  • MRI scan: To detect ligament, tendon, or cartilage injuries
  • Arthrogram or Ultrasound: To visualize soft tissue structures in detail

These tests help determine the exact cause of pain and the appropriate surgical approach.

Shoulder Arthroscopy Procedure

  • The procedure is usually performed under regional or general anesthesia.
  • Small incisions (about 1 cm each) are made around the shoulder joint.
  • An arthroscope is inserted to visualize the internal structures on a monitor.
  • Specialized instruments are then used to repair torn tissues, remove inflamed or damaged tissue, or smooth bone surfaces.
  • Once the repair is complete, the instruments are removed and the incisions are closed with sutures or sterile strips.

The procedure typically takes 45 to 90 minutes, depending on the complexity and type of repair required.
