Complex shoulder arthroscopy performed

Chandigarh: A successful complex shoulder arthroscopy procedure was performed by Dr. Joseph J.B. Mal, associate director orthopaedics & joint replacement at Livasa hospital (IVY) recently.
The surgery was performed on a patient with severe stiffness in the right shoulder, resulting from a history of recurrent dislocations.
The patient was brought to Livasa with significant impairment in his daily activities due to stiffness in his dominant right shoulder. The patient’s medical history revealed repeated shoulder dislocations triggered by minor incidents, leading to restricted shoulder movement and secondary stiffness.
Upon thorough clinical and radiological evaluation, the patient was diagnosed with recurrent dislocation of the right shoulder (OLD) accompanied by stiffness, potential rotator cuff tear, and impingement syndrome of the shoulder.
Given the complexity of the case, Dr. Joseph J.B. Mal performed a minimally invasive Keyhole (arthroscopic) surgery, which involved precise surgical releases of the joint capsule and subacromial decompression.
The delicate operation required careful balance to address the stiffness without causing further dislocations while restoring the functional range of motion in the shoulder joint.
Following the surgery, the patient underwent supervised physiotherapy to optimize the procedure’s outcome. As a result, the patient has regained a functional range of motion in the shoulder and is on track to achieve full mobility with continued physiotherapy.
Dr. Joseph said,” This was a challenging case that required meticulous planning and execution. The patient’s history of recurrent dislocations complicated the situation, but with the help of advanced arthroscopic techniques and dedicated post-operative care, we have achieved a positive outcome. We are optimistic about the patient’s full recovery and return to normal activities.
Meanwhile Livasa Hospital, Nawanshahr continues to lead in offering cutting-edge orthopaedic care, providing patients with the highest standards of treatment and expertise.Complex shoulder arthroscopy performed
