Procedures
- Shoulder Arthroscopy
Shoulder arthroscopy is a minimally invasive diagnostic and surgical procedure for the treatment of shoulder joint problems. It is performed using a pencil-sized instrument called an arthroscope.
- Shoulder Arthroplasty
Total shoulder replacement surgery is performed to relieve these symptoms. In this surgery, the damaged articulating parts of the shoulder joint are removed and replaced with artificial prostheses.
- Shoulder Stabilization
Shoulder stabilization surgery is done to improve stability and function to the shoulder joint and prevent recurrent dislocations. It can be performed arthroscopically, depending on your particular condition, with much smaller incisions.
- Shoulder Ligament Reconstruction
Shoulder ligament reconstruction is surgery to reconstruct a torn shoulder ligament using a graft or artificial prosthesis. Ligaments are tough, non-stretchable fibres that hold your bones together.
- Circumferential Shoulder Labral Repair
Traumatic injury to the shoulder or overuse of the shoulder by excessive throwing or weightlifting can cause a labral tear. In addition, the ageing process may weaken the labrum, leading to injury secondary to wear and tear. Shoulder labrum reconstruction is a surgery to repair the torn labrum.
- Anatomic Total Shoulder Arthroplasty
Total shoulder replacement surgery is performed to relieve the symptoms of arthritis. In this surgery, the damaged articulating parts of the shoulder joint are removed and replaced with artificial prostheses. Replacement of both the humeral head and the socket is called a total shoulder replacement.
- Reverse Total Shoulder Arthroplasty
Reverse total shoulder replacement, is an advanced surgical technique specifically designed for rotator cuff tear arthropathy, a condition where the patient suffers from both shoulder arthritis and a rotator cuff tear.
