Shoulder arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that uses a 4mm camera to assist with surgery. Rather than make a large incision to open the shoulder, surgeons can put a camera through a small poke hole (portal) and see inside the shoulder. The camera displays the image on a monitor.

The shoulder is a ball and socket joint composed of the arm bone (humerus) and socket (glenoid). The ball (humeral head) articulates with the socket and allows motion at the glenohumeral joint. The shoulder blade (scapula) also moves over the rib cage at the scapulothoracic joint. Shoulder movement is accomplished by coordinated motion at the scapulothoracic joint and glenohumeral joint.

Hip replacement, also known as hip arthroplasty, is an orthopedic surgical procedure to replace the hip joint with prosthetic implants. With hip replacement our doctor will surgically place prosthetic implants to relieve hip pain due to hip arthritis or a hip joint that is injured or diseased.

If you have hip pain and non-surgical methods are no longer effective in reducing the pain, visit us at Han Orthopaedics in Los Angeles to speak with our hip replacement specialist.Although arthritis is one of the most common reasons for hip replacement there are other types of hip injuries that can be treated with a hip replacement.
