Shoulder Dislocation Surgery
Dislocations can be caused by trauma due to significant force such as a traffic accident or a minimal force depending upon the strength of the surrounding ligaments and muscles. Treatment includes relocating the shoulder into joint followed by a period of rest in a sling and physiotherapy. Open or arthroscopic surgery may be considered after the initial episode or if shoulder dislocation is recurrent.
Shoulder Rotator Cuff Surgery
The Rotator Cuff is a group of muscles which wrap closely around the shoulder joint, helping to keep the joint in the correct position and control shoulder movements.
The operation aims to repair the damage to the rotator cuff. The torn muscles/tendons are repaired with sutures or suture anchors depending on the site and size of damage. The operation can be done either arthroscopically (i.e. key-hole surgery’) or through an open incision.
Shoulder Replacement Surgery
Shoulder replacement may be right for you if other treatments haven’t relieved chronic pain or stiffness due to:
- Arthritis
- Rotator cuff tear
- Major fracture or injury
- Avascular necrosis
Bursitis
