Arthroscopy of the shoulder (ASK)
These days, arthroscopy is a relatively common orthopaedic operation. It is used to diagnose and treat injured or otherwise damaged intra-articular structures. It is a minimally invasive method, i.e. the shoulder joint is accessed through small incisions around the circumference of the shoulder. This minimizes scarring and reduces the risk of infection and pain, leading to faster rehabilitation and earlier return to normal activities. The procedure is performed under general anaesthesia.
The following arthroscopic surgery most often performed in the shoulder area: treatment/sewing of the rotator cuff muscles, treatment of the biceps tendon, stabilization of the shoulder due to dislocation, removal of adhesions or painful calcium deposits around the joint, restoration of movement in a "frozen" shoulder, cleaning out inflammatory tissues.
1. Consultation with a Surgeon
Your first step is a consultation with one of our specialists. The doctor will assess your health condition, explain the procedure in detail, and recommend the most appropriate treatment approach.
2. Pre-Operative Preparation
Before the procedure, you will undergo the necessary examinations and receive clear instructions on how to prepare for surgery.
3. Day of Surgery
You will arrive at the clinic at a pre-arranged time. After the necessary preparation, the surgical procedure itself will take place.
4. Short Post-Operative Monitoring
Following the procedure, you will remain for a short period in the recovery room under the supervision of our medical staff.
5. Return Home
In most cases, patients are able to return home on the same day. Recovery then continues in the comfort of the home environment.

More information on the procedure
General.
The procedure is followed by rest for at least 4 hours.
Details of treatment and its progress depends mainly on the type of injury and the chosen treatment. After a simple surgical arthroscopy, one should avoid vigorous activity and lifting heavy objects for 1-2 weeks. The duration of recovery and rehabilitation depends on the severity of the injury and the treatment chosen.
Surgery with a Human Approach
Modern day-case surgery makes it possible to perform procedures without unnecessary hospitalisation. Patients attend their procedure at a pre-arranged time that takes their personal schedule into account. One of the advantages of MY CLINIC is the availability of prompt surgical appointments.
In most cases, patients return home the same day, or at the latest the following day. This eliminates the need for a prolonged hospital stay and allows for a quicker and more comfortable return to normal daily life.
At MY CLINIC, surgical procedures are performed by a team of experienced specialists with many years of practice and international certifications. We combine modern surgical techniques with a strong emphasis on patient safety and comfort.
A compassionate, patient-centred approach is equally important to us. We understand that the decision to undergo surgery may be accompanied by concerns—whether for yourself or for your child. That is why we strive to create an environment where you can feel at ease and confidently place your care in the hands of our doctors.
For paediatric patients, a parent is welcome to remain with the child until the induction of anaesthesia in the operating theatre. The presence of a parent helps the child feel more secure and comfortable before the procedure.
In the majority of cases, patients are discharged on the same day as their procedure. Where medically appropriate, a comfortable single room is also available, providing maximum privacy.
For us, a humane and empathetic approach is not an addition to medical care—it is its natural foundation.

Day Surgery – A Rapid Return Home
Most surgical procedures are performed using minimally invasive techniques. Patients arrive for their procedure at a pre-arranged time and, after a short period of post-operative observation, are usually able to return home.
Recovery can therefore take place in the comfort of the patient’s home environment, without the risks commonly associated with prolonged hospital stays.
Modern Operating Theatres
All procedures take place in modern operating theatres equipped with advanced technology for minimally invasive surgery.
Our technical facilities allow for gentle surgical techniques, precise diagnostics, and the highest level of safety during operations.
Individualised Patient Care
Before surgery, each patient attends a consultation with their surgeon, during which they receive detailed information about the procedure, the type of anaesthesia, and the expected recovery process.
Patients are encouraged to ask questions and, together with their doctor, choose the most appropriate course of treatment.
