Less pain
Shorter recovery time
Less scarring
Better aesthetic results

It is performed under general or local anesthesia. The surgeon inserts a small camera into the shoulder joint through a small incision. The camera transmits live images of the joint to a video monitor. Through other smaller incisions, the surgeon inserts surgical instruments to diagnose and treat the problem.

Recovery time for minimally invasive shoulder surgery is generally shorter than for open surgery. Patients can return home the same day of surgery or the next day. Most patients can begin rehabilitation exercises within a few weeks after surgery.
