APEX Shoulder Mastering Surgical Techniques for Clinical Success-Arthroscopic Capsular Shift

Arthroscopic Capsular Shift_ Some Tricks You Should Known

Video Transcription

Video Summary

Dr. Joe Toro discusses arthroscopic instability surgery techniques aimed at restoring shoulder stability without compromising motion. Key points include understanding the stress-strain curve of ligaments and the circle theory of the glenoid, which explains capsular tension dynamics. He emphasizes thorough dissection of ligaments and capsule off the glenoid neck, using radiofrequency tools carefully to minimize bleeding. A capsular split shift technique allows for better capsular advancement and tightening. He also highlights using a trans-subscapular percutaneous portal for optimal low anchor placement, ensuring safety with arm positioning. These tips enhance repair stability and surgical precision in shoulder instability cases.
