[Arthroscopy of the shoulder joint. Technique, indications, surgery and complications].
Diagnostic and operative arthroscopy of the shoulder joint has gained considerable importance in traumatology and orthopedic surgery over the last years. Injuries of the limbus glenoidalis, in particular traumatic shoulder luxation, injuries of the rotator cuff, infection of the glenohumeral joint and unclear posttraumatic pain are indications for diagnostic and operative arthroscopy. Arthroscopy of the shoulder is a procedure, which offers exact diagnosis and the possibility of immediate surgery at the same time. The technique of the shoulder joint arthroscopy has to be carried out carefully and according to a standard protocol. The complication rate of around 5% of shoulder arthroscopy has not to be neglected.
