Shoulder & Knee Arthroscopy
The orthopedic surgeons at Atullok hospital use arthroscopy as a method of viewing a joint, and, if needed, to perform surgery on a joint.The device is inserted into a small incision and allows Atullok hospital surgeons to look for joint damage or disease. The device also allows our surgeons to perform reconstructive procedures on the joint, if needed.

Shoulder arthroscopy procedures may differ, but most involve: The surgeon will look around the entire joint to check the cartilage, tendons of the shoulder. If damaged tissues need to be repaired, the surgeon will make one to three additional small incisions to insert other instruments. These may include a blunt hook to pull on tissues and a shaver to remove damaged or unwanted tissues.
In addition to working on the shoulder joint, the surgeon often places the camera in the rotator cuff tendons. The surgeon can evaluate the area above the rotator cuff, clean out inflamed tissue.
At the end of the surgery, the fluid is drained from the shoulder and the small incisions are closed.
