Shoulder Scope

A shoulder arthroscopy, also known as a shoulder scope, is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that allows surgeons to operate through tiny incisions with the aid of a camera.

Shoulder scope surgery can be used to treat:

• Rotator cuff tears
• Labral tears
• Impingement syndrome
• Biceps tendonitis
• AC joint arthritis

While shoulder scope is less invasive than traditional open shoulder surgery, it also provides a smaller field of vision for the surgeon.  Dr. Mayman can review your symptoms as well as X-rays and/or MRIs to decide which type of surgery is best for you.
