What is Arthroscopic Rotator Cuff Repair?

Arthroscopic cuff repair is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to repair a torn rotator cuff — a group of tendons and muscles that stabilize the shoulder. This condition is common due to aging, overuse, trauma, or sports injuries. The procedure involves inserting a tiny camera (arthroscope) and instruments through small incisions to reattach the torn tendons to the bone.

Who May Need Arthroscopic Cuff Repair?

You may benefit from this procedure if you have:

Persistent shoulder pain that worsens with movement
Difficulty lifting your arm or performing daily activities
Weakness in the shoulder
A clicking or popping sensation in the joint
Pain at night, especially when lying on the affected side
A rotator cuff tear diagnosed through MRI or ultrasound
No improvement with medications, rest, or physiotherapy

Dr. Amandeep Singh Narang – M.B.B.S., DNB (Ortho), MCh (Ortho) from Dundee, U.K. – performs arthroscopic rotator cuff repair at MKW Hospital, Rajouri Garden, using state-of-the-art techniques and equipment.

The procedure is done under regional or general anesthesia. Through small keyhole incisions, the arthroscope is inserted to visualize the tear. Miniature instruments and anchors are used to stitch and secure the torn tendon back to the bone.

The surgery typically lasts 1–2 hours. Most patients return home the same day. A structured rehabilitation plan follows to restore shoulder strength and mobility. Full recovery may take 3–6 months depending on the severity of the tear.
