Abstract
In the last 30 years, shoulder arthroscopy has become of greater importance in the diagnosis and treatment of shoulder diseases. An increasing number of arthroscopic techniques together with innovations in surgical equipment have resulted in several surgical procedures which were applied as open surgery in the past now being applied as arthroscopic procedures. The aim of arthroscopic surgery is to provide rapid, accurate diagnosis and treatment during surgery together with the least morbidity possible to the patient. Therefore, the most important factor increasing the success of arthroscopic surgery is the ability to identify natural-healthy anatomic structures.
