We are going to discuss the possibility of We are going to discuss the possibility of complications related to the portals and complications related to the portals and patient’s position during arthroscopy of the patient’s position during arthroscopy of the shoulder jointshoulder joint
Commonly, the Commonly, the nerve injuries occur nerve injuries occur secondary to secondary to traction or traction or contusion. These contusion. These are avoided best by are avoided best by careful attention to careful attention to patient positioning, patient positioning, and arm and arm manipulation during manipulation during surgerysurgery . .
Nerve injuries are reported Nerve injuries are reported to occur in 1% to 2% of to occur in 1% to 2% of patients undergoing patients undergoing rotator cuff surgery and rotator cuff surgery and in 1% to 8% of patients in 1% to 8% of patients undergoing surgery for undergoing surgery for anterior instabilityanterior instability
