Left Shoulder Injuries with Arthroscopic and Open Surgical Repairs

Dramatically depicts degenerative disease of the acromioclavicular, or ac, joint in the left shoulder with arthroscopic surgery repairs. Shows impingement of the supraspinatus muscle, a rotator cuff muscle, and a torn supraspinatus tendon. Surgical steps: A. Arthroscopic instruments inserted into the shoulder joint; B. Coracoacromial ligament is released and a high speed bur is used to reshape the clavicle; C., D. and E. Smoothing of the bone surface and suturing of the muscle tendon.
