Shoulder Arthroscopy & Stabilization
Restore Your Shoulder Strength, Stability, and Freedom of Movement
The knee is vital for movement but prone to injury, especially in active cities like Dubai and Sharjah. Knee arthroscopy offers a minimally invasive solution for diagnosing and treating knee pain, instability, and swelling. Dr. Sudarshan Bhandary, a leading knee specialist in the UAE, uses advanced techniques for faster recovery and lasting relief
What Is Shoulder Arthroscopy?
Shoulder arthroscopy is a keyhole surgical technique that allows Dr. Bhandary to directly view and repair structures inside the shoulder joint using small incisions. A miniature camera (arthroscope) projects a detailed view of the joint onto a screen, while specialized instruments repair damaged tissues with precision.

Benefits of Shoulder Arthroscopy:
- Smaller incisions
- Minimal tissue trauma
- Faster recovery
- Less postoperative pain
Rotator Cuff Tears
- Tears in the tendons that stabilize the shoulder
- Causes pain, weakness, and difficulty lifting the arm
- Often worsens with time if left untreated
Recurrent Shoulder Dislocations (Instability)
- Often seen in athletes or after traumatic injury in Dubai and Sharjah
- May result in stretched or torn labrum (Bankart lesion)
- Leads to fear of re-injury and limited activity
SLAP Lesions (Labral Tears)
- Tears at the top of the shoulder labrum
- Can cause clicking, catching, or deep shoulder pain
Frozen Shoulder (Adhesive Capsulitis)
- Stiffness and pain limiting shoulder movement
- Often gradual onset, sometimes after injury or surgery
Shoulder Impingement & Bursitis
- Pain with overhead activities
- Inflammation of soft tissues within the joint
Rotator Cuff Repair: Dr. Bhandary’s Expertise
The rotator cuff is a group of tendons that allows your shoulder to lift and rotate. Tears may result from aging, overuse, or injury. Dr. Bhandary specializes in arthroscopic rotator cuff repair using advanced suture-anchor techniques to:
The Procedure Involves:
- Reattach torn tendons securely
- Preserve healthy tissue
- Promote natural healing
Shoulder Stabilization Procedures
When dislocations become repetitive, shoulder stabilization procedures help restore long-term joint stability:
Bankart Repair
- Arthroscopic repair of torn labrum to secure the shoulder socket
Latarjet Procedure
- Bone graft procedure for complex recurrent dislocations with bone loss
- Prevents further dislocations in high-risk cases
Remplissage
- Additional procedure addressing Hill-Sachs lesions (bone indentation on humeral head)
These advanced procedures require precise expertise to balance mobility with long-term stability.
Frozen Shoulder Release
For patients with frozen shoulder, Dr. Bhandary performs arthroscopic capsular release, carefully cutting tight, scarred tissues to restore full range of motion while protecting the joint.
- Immediate improvement in flexibility
- Minimally invasive technique
- Fast-tracked rehabilitation
Benefits of Shoulder Arthroscopy
- Smaller incisions
- Less postoperative pain
- Shorter hospital stays
- Faster rehabilitation
- Lower risk of complications compared to open surgery
