A member asked:
What kind of surgery is performed on a slap tear with torn bicep tendon, osteophytes, osteoarthritis & edema of bone marrow?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
SLAP Surgery: The surgical technique most commonly used for repairing a slap injury is arthroscopy. During arthroscopy, your surgeon inserts a small camera, called an arthroscope, into your shoulder joint. The camera displays pictures on a television screen, and your surgeon uses these images to guide miniature surgical instruments.
