Abstract

Arthroscopy following shoulder arthroplasty has primarily been described as a diagnostic tool in the setting of unexplained pain. However, this tool also can be used to potentially manage postoperative stiffness and pain following reverse shoulder arthroplasty. This Technical Note provides a stepwise approach to assessing and addressing limitations in range of motion as well as causes of postoperative impingement following reverse shoulder arthroplasty.
