Shoulder Arthroscopy

Shoulder arthroscopy is a minimally invasive procedure used to diagnose and treat a wide range of shoulder problems — including rotator cuff tears, impingement syndrome, labral injuries, and joint stiffness, as well as more complex reconstructive cases such as labrum reconstruction and procedures for instability. Our orthopaedic specialists in the Czech Republic perform arthroscopic shoulder surgery with modern equipment and expert precision, offering fast access and international-level care.

Surgery is typically completed in under two hours with a short hospital stay (often 24 hours, depending on the procedure). We offer clear, fixed-price packages including consultations, anaesthesia, hospital stay, and post-operative care — a practical option for international patients travelling from Ireland, the UK, Germany, and across Europe.

Shoulder arthroscopy

What is shoulder arthroscopy?

Shoulder arthroscopy is keyhole surgery used to diagnose and treat issues inside the shoulder joint. It is commonly used for rotator cuff injuries, impingement, frozen shoulder, labrum tears, and removal of loose bodies.

Why choose this procedure?

A minimally traumatic option with less post-operative pain and shorter downtime than open surgery, suitable for both active patients and those with chronic shoulder problems.

How the treatment is performed

The surgeon uses a small camera and fine instruments through small incisions. You typically stay one night in hospital and receive medications, rehab guidance, and personalised care.

What’s included in the package?

Consultations, medical tests, hospitalisation, surgery, medications, and post-op rehabilitation during your stay — with support in English or German.

International patients welcome

Fixed pricing, no waiting lists, and experienced teams — an accessible option for patients from Ireland, the UK, and across Europe seeking shoulder surgery abroad.

Reconstructive shoulder arthroscopy

Who is reconstructive shoulder arthroscopy for?

Recommended for chronic instability, recurrent dislocations, torn ligaments, or complex rotator cuff problems — often after conservative treatment has not worked, especially in active patients and athletes.

Why choose our clinic in the Czech Republic?

Experienced surgeons performing high volumes of arthroscopic procedures, modern clinics with international standards, and short waiting times for patients travelling for treatment.

What’s included in the package?

A complete pathway from consultation to discharge: diagnostics, anaesthesia, surgery, medications, and rehab during your 24-hour hospital stay, plus personalised aftercare instructions.

Rehab and recovery

Basic physiotherapy is provided during hospitalisation, with guidance for follow-up rehab at home. Light activity is often possible within a few weeks, while full recovery depends on the procedure and individual healing.
