Abstract:
Shoulder surgery has rapidly grown into an independent branch of o rthopedics in the developed countries, but not in China, for only several large -scale Chinese hospitals have set up an independent department of shoulder surg ery. Advancement of arthroscopy and increasing application of displacement of ar tificial humeral head have enriched the treatment methods of shoulder problems s o that many of the previous contradictions can be resolved through surgery. This issue of Chinese Journal of Orthopaedic Trauma(CJOT) introduces some procedures and experience of the shoulder surgery, including operative managements of shou lder dislocation, fracture of shoulder blade, acromion impingement syndrome and shoulder instability. Surgeons should achieve as much as possible minimal invasi on and optimal functional recovery of the shoulder as long as they do not dramat ically increase the expenses of the patients.
