Procedures

Procedures Offered

Rotator Cuff Replacement Labrum SLAP Arthroscopy

Rotator Cuff Repair

Rotator cuff repair reattaches torn tendon to the humeral head using suture anchors, most often through an arthroscopic approach. The procedure relieves pain, restores overhead strength, and prevents further tear progression. Success rates reach 85-95% for small-to-medium tears when combined with dedicated rehabilitation.

Success rate: 85-95% | Technique: Arthroscopic or mini-open | Recovery: 4-6 months

Labrum Repair

Labrum repair surgery reattaches the torn fibrocartilage rim of the shoulder socket using arthroscopic suture anchors. The procedure stabilizes the joint, eliminates catching and clicking, and allows return to overhead sports. Bankart repair addresses anterior instability, while posterior and combined repairs target multi-directional damage.

Technique: Arthroscopic | Return to sport: 4-6 months | Success rate: 88-95%

Shoulder Arthroscopy

Shoulder arthroscopy is a minimally invasive procedure using a small camera and instruments through 5mm incisions to diagnose and treat a range of shoulder conditions. It can address rotator cuff tears, labral damage, impingement, loose bodies, and biceps tendon pathology. Most patients go home the same day with significantly less post-operative pain than open surgery.

Incision size: 5mm | Outpatient: Yes | Recovery: 2 weeks to 6 months depending on procedure
