This image gives a descriptive view of a complicated arthroscopic surgery on the shoulder with the attention on the healing of the injuries that are common and disabling. The x-ray is of the tenuous structures of the glenohumeral joint: the glenoid socket, the ruptured labrum, and a shredded or severed rotator-cuff tendon. Surgeons would be shown using miniature instruments through small holes to re-attach the torn labrum to the joints to provide joint stability or suture a torn tendon back into the humeral head. This is the least invasive procedure used in injuries (trauma or over-use trauma) in order to get rid of pain and recover accurate ratio of mobility and strength needed not only in sporting activities in high overhead, but also in everyday activities, with the added benefit of faster recovery.
