Shoulder Scope


 

Shoulder pain that fails to respond to non-operative treatment today is often addressed with a shoulder scope.  This procedure requires making small 5 mm incisions around the shoulder and inserting a fiber-optic camera to evaluate the problem.  Rotator cuff tears can be identified and repair.  Bone spurs can be evaluated and removed.   This procedure is typically done as an outpatient.
