Clinical Cases

    Unable to lift the arm, difficulty reaching overhead, pain that makes life unbearable... This "shoulder" ordeal cannot be ignored!

    • Patient Profile

      35 years old / Male (Brazilian nationality)

    • Chief Complaints

      Persistent right shoulder pain for 1 year, awakened by pain at night for 2 months;

      Unable to raise the arm or reach behind the back, all fitness activities completely ceased.

    • Treatment Process

      Arthroscopic exploration confirmed a full-thickness tear of the supraspinatus tendon;

      Suture anchor with tension band technique was implanted to reconstruct the tendon footprint;

      Surgery duration was 1 hour, with only four 5mm micro-incisions.


    • Technical Highlights

      Precise Differential Diagnosis: Through the Job test and Hug-up test combined with MRI, a rotator cuff injury was confirmed rather than frozen shoulder.

      4K Arthroscopic Minimally Invasive Repair: Precise suturing of the torn tendon under high-definition arthroscopic visualization, with blood loss <10ml.

      Accelerated Rehabilitation Protocol: Shoulder joint functional training initiated 24 hours postoperatively.

    • Therapeutic Outcomes

      Pain resolved on the day of surgery, with rehabilitation training starting within 24 hours;

      Discharged after 3 days, with 90% recovery of joint range of motion at the 1-month follow-up;

      Gradual return to fitness training possible 3 months post-surgery.
