Here they are at last . . . Surgery Pics! (**warning ** graphical**)

These are the pictures taken during my arthroscopic shoulder surgery. They insert a camera attached to a tool during surgery so they can see what they are doing. They made 4 small incisions about a quarter inch long around the shoulder area.


Here you can see the suture of muscle to the bone anchor. The red pic indicates an area of arthritis.












Don't recall what these represent.

















Here the red pic is where they shaved down some bone to give more cushion to the joint and to remove some arthritic areas.
