Shoulder & Rotator Cuff Surgery – Quironsalud

Shoulder and Rotator Cuff Surgery Specialist Dubai

The purpose of shoulder surgery is to repair a damaged, degenerated, or diseased shoulder joint. In addition, this type of procedure is aimed for various conditions such as rotator cuff tears, shoulder dislocations, and shoulder instability, Frozen Shoulder.

The rotator cuff is a term that refers to a group of four tendons in the shoulder that connects the muscles of the shoulder blade to the top of the arm bone. The rotator cuff helps keep the shoulder in its socket and allows the shoulder joint to support a wide range of movement. When these tendons are torn from overuse or injury, a rotator cuff surgery is indicated.

Rotator Cuff Tear surgery is the one of the common surgeries performed. Our Orthopedic Surgeons are experts at Arthrocopic surgeries and offer exensive examination and diagnostic testings for a variety of conditions.

Injuries, overuse, and age-related wear and tear are the main reasons that cause most shoulder or rotator cuff problems. Shoulder or rotator cuff surgery is also recommended when painful conditions don’t respond to non-surgical treatments such as physiotherapy, medications, or injections (that reduces inflammation in the joint). Sometimes an orthopedist may also recommend a shoulder or rotator cuff surgery in situations such as:

Ongoing painful symptoms that last for more than six months
Any tear in the rotator cuff that is larger than 3 centimeters
Traumatic damages due to injuries
If a person has a job that requires maneuvering shoulders or arms a lot
If a person plays any sports which requires a lot of arm or shoulder movements, such as golf or lacrosse
If there is a severe loss of function or weakness in the shoulder
