affecting these joints, offering solutions tailored to each patient’s individual needs.
Shoulder and elbow injuries are common and can be particularly limiting because of the essential role these joints play in upper limb movement and function.
These conditions can be classified into acute injuries, such as fractures, dislocations and acute tendon tears, and chronic or degenerative conditions, such as rotator cuff tears, joint instability, osteoarthritis and rotator cuff arthropathy. Epicondylitis (tennis elbow) is another common condition affecting the elbow.
An accurate diagnosis requires a thorough clinical examination, supported where necessary by diagnostic imaging such as X-rays, ultrasound scans or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
Treatment may involve conservative approaches, including physiotherapy, rehabilitation, functional recovery programmes and therapeutic injections.
When surgery is necessary, we use minimally invasive techniques where appropriate, including shoulder or elbow arthroscopy, as well as open surgical procedures in cases where these are more suitable.
