About Arthroscopic Posterior Stabilisation

Arthroscopic Posterior Stabilisation is a minimally invasive surgical procedure performed by orthopedic surgeons to address instability in the back (posterior) part of the shoulder joint. This condition, often caused by trauma or repetitive strain, leads to recurrent dislocations or subluxations where the humeral head slips backward. Using an arthroscope, a small camera inserted through tiny incisions, the surgeon visualizes the joint, repairs or tightens the damaged posterior labrum (a cartilage rim), and may reattach torn ligaments or capsules. This technique offers significant advantages over traditional open surgery, including less tissue damage, reduced post-operative pain, smaller scars, and a faster recovery timeline, allowing patients to regain shoulder stability and function.

Key Highlights

Minimally invasive technique with small incisions, leading to less scarring.Reduced post-operative pain and bleeding compared to open surgery.Enhanced visualization of the joint structures for precise repair.Typically performed as a same-day or short-stay procedure.Lower risk of infection and faster initial recovery.Allows for early initiation of controlled rehabilitation./ul

Who is this surgery for?

Recurrent posterior shoulder instability or dislocations.
Posterior labral tears (e.g., reverse Bankart lesion).
Posterior capsule laxity or insufficiency.
Failed non-surgical management (physical therapy, activity modification) for posterior instability.
Shoulder pain and functional limitation due to posterior instability in active individuals or athletes.
Traumatic injury causing posterior shoulder subluxation.

How to prepare

Complete pre-operative medical evaluation, including blood tests and imaging (MRI, CT scan).
Discussion with the surgeon and anesthesiologist about the procedure and anesthesia options.
Discontinuation of certain medications (e.g., blood thinners like aspirin or warfarin) as advised by the doctor.
Fasting for 6-8 hours before the surgery as per hospital protocol.
Arranging for transportation home post-surgery and support during initial recovery.
Pre-operative physical therapy may be recommended to strengthen surrounding muscles.

Risks & possible complications

General risks of anesthesia (allergic reaction, breathing difficulties).
Infection at the incision sites or within the joint.
Bleeding, hematoma, or nerve/vessel damage.
Stiffness or reduced range of motion in the shoulder.
Failure of the repair, leading to recurrent instability.
Deep vein thrombosis (blood clots).
Arthrofibrosis (excessive scar tissue formation).

Recovery & hospital stay

Initial immobilization in a sling for 2-6 weeks to protect the repair.
Pain management with prescribed medications and ice application.
Structured physical therapy program starting with gentle pendulum exercises, progressing to active range-of-motion and strengthening over several months.
Avoidance of heavy lifting, pushing, pulling, and overhead activities for 3-6 months.
Gradual return to daily activities and light work as guided by the therapist.
Full return to sports or heavy manual labor may take 6-9 months or longer, depending on progress.
Regular follow-up appointments to monitor healing and adjust rehabilitation.

Typical hospital stay: 1-2 days
Expected recovery time: 6-9 months for full return to sports/ strenuous activity
