Shoulder injuries in athletes can be severe, resulting in rotator cuff tears. It is crucial to be treated in time by an orthopedic specialist to repair the torn rotator cuff. Minimally Invasive Surgery in Shoulder Arthroscopy is a procedure performed using a small camera and special equipment through four small incisions, each approximately 0.5 – 1 cm. This method allows the surgeon to repair the torn ligaments effectively.
