Advanced Arthroscopic Rotator Cuff Surgery by Dr. Hemendra Agrawal

Rotator cuff repair is a minimally invasive arthroscopic surgery performed to repair torn tendons of the rotator cuff in the shoulder. The rotator cuff is a group of muscles and tendons that stabilize the shoulder joint and allow smooth movement of the arm.
Rotator cuff tears can occur due to injury, repetitive overhead activities, or age-related degeneration. These tears can lead to shoulder pain, weakness, limited range of motion, and difficulty performing daily tasks like lifting or reaching overhead.
Dr. Hemendra Agrawal performs advanced arthroscopic rotator cuff repair using high-definition cameras and specialized instruments. The torn tendon is reattached to the bone using anchors and sutures, restoring shoulder function and stability.
This minimally invasive approach results in smaller incisions, less pain, reduced scarring, and faster recovery compared to traditional open surgery.
When is this procedure recommended?
Partial or complete rotator cuff tear
Shoulder pain not improving with medication or physiotherapy
Weakness while lifting or rotating the arm
Difficulty performing overhead activities
Night pain affecting sleep
Sports injuries involving shoulder strain
Degenerative tendon tears in older individuals
Loss of shoulder mobility and strength
A detailed walkthrough of the surgical process
Clinical evaluation, MRI scan, and imaging to assess tear size and tendon condition.
Performed under general anesthesia or regional block. The patient is positioned for optimal shoulder access.
Small incisions are made, and an arthroscope is inserted to visualize the shoulder joint.
The surgeon assesses the rotator cuff tear and surrounding structures.
The torn tendon is reattached to the bone using suture anchors and precise stitching techniques.
Incisions are closed, and a shoulder sling is applied for support during recovery.
