Shoulder Arthroscopy

Shoulder Arthroscopy is available through Sports Medicine North at a published cash price, paid when you book.

Shoulder arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to diagnose and treat various shoulder joint conditions. During the procedure, a small camera, known as an arthroscope, is inserted through tiny incisions in the shoulder. This allows the surgeon to visualize the interior of the joint and identify issues such as rotator cuff tears, labral tears, ligament injuries, or inflammation. In addition to diagnosis, shoulder arthroscopy enables the surgeon to perform therapeutic interventions, including repairing damaged tissues, removing loose bodies, or addressing impingement issues. The minimally invasive nature of shoulder arthroscopy generally results in less pain, faster recovery times, and reduced risk of complications compared to traditional open surgery. It is a valuable technique for restoring shoulder function and relieving pain in individuals with various shoulder conditions, emphasizing precision and minimal disruption to surrounding tissues. The versatility of shoulder arthroscopy makes it a preferred choice for both diagnostic and therapeutic purposes in the realm of shoulder joint care.
