Shoulder arthroscopy is a minimally invasive procedure for surgical treatment of conditions around the shoulder. The purpose of the shoulder is to position the arm and hand in space. Although the shoulder is often referred to as a "ball and socket" joint, in reality, it more closely resembles a golf ball sitting on a tee.
As people live longer and seek to maintain active lifestyles, shoulder replacement surgery has grown substantially, with approximately 60,000 shoulder replacements performed in the United States a year. That number is growing higher annually. The shoulder is the most mobile joint in the body, which is why we are able to position our hand so freely for dressing, grooming, hygiene, reaching, and participating in athletics.
