If you have a shoulder problem, a surgical procedure called arthroscopy can help.
During shoulder replacement surgery, all or part of your problem shoulder is replaced with an artificial joint, called a prosthesis.
The rotator cuff connects the upper arm to the shoulder blade. It gives the shoulder joint stability and strength. Tendonitis happens when the tendons in the shoulder become irritated and swollen.
The leading cause of instability is an injury that forces the humeral head out of its socket. If the humerus pushes completely out of the joint, it's called dislocation. If it only pushes partway out, it's called subluxation.
Arthroscopy is used to diagnose and treat joint problems. After arthroscopy, you may be able to return to the activities you enjoy.
