Identify complaints and clinical pictures of the shoulder joint

Complaints in the shoulder joint have a variety of causes and, in addition to pain, can also cause restricted movement or even loss of function. A detailed medical history and a careful examination are therefore the basis of our working method at OZMO in order to determine the specific cause in the complex structure of the shoulder joint. With a wealth of experience and close cooperation with scientific research, our team of specialists is your trusted contact for shoulder complaints and high-quality shoulder surgery using the latest methods of orthopedic medicine, even in complicated cases.

In our well-equipped specialist center for orthopedics, we not only use classic movement tests and clinical examinations in the examinations for complaints requiring shoulder surgery, but also undertake detailed examinations of the joint situation directly on site using imaging techniques, for example

Ultrasound examinations
X-ray examinations and
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examinations.

Causes of shoulder pain include tension, ossification and debris in the joint, as well as injuries and wear and tear to the ligaments, tendons and muscles involved in the high-quality functionality of the shoulder. It is not for nothing that the shoulder is considered the most mobile joint in the human body.

If surgical interventions are necessary to treat the cause of shoulder pain, modern shoulder surgery now offers innovative options. Thus, our experts at OZMO give preference to minimally invasive surgeries over conservative procedures in order to protect your health in the best possible way and to sustainably relieve the body with regard to the healing process.

Shoulder surgery treatments

The treatments in shoulder surgery are as varied as the clinical pictures. While some shoulder conditions can be alleviated with conservative orthopedic treatments, sometimes there is no way around targeted surgery. At OZMO, our experts, such as Prof. Dr. med. habil. Peter Diehl as a shoulder specialist, minimally invasive procedures for the surgical treatment of diseases and injuries of the shoulder at

an impingement syndrome
Bursa removals
Wear and tear in the shoulder joint (arthrosis / omarthrosis)
Rotator cuff rupture (tendon tear in the shoulder)
Capsular ligament injuries of the shoulder
complicated fractures of the humerus in the area of the shoulder

On the other hand, further operations such as initial implants of shoulder endoprostheses and replacement operations for new implants cannot always be treated minimally invasively. In these cases, however, our specialist will be at your service as adeptly as professionally with the most modern treatments in orthopedic medicine.

We care about your safety and trust, which is why we attach great importance to a detailed medical history and careful diagnostics. Our specialists in orthopedics and trauma surgery are at your side with advice and support to alleviate discomfort and pain in the shoulder with state-of-the-art therapies. Shoulder surgery therefore plays a major role in our Orthopedic Center Munich East (OZMO). In case of necessary inpatient stays, we gladly and often cooperate with the Dr. Lubos Clinic in Bogenhausen, where our Prof. Dr. Diehl is also the head physician for minimally invasive procedures.

The most modern methods of shoulder surgery in the OZMO

In minimally invasive / arthroscopic shoulder surgery, new stitching techniques and anchorage systems (double-row anchorage) can now improve pull-out forces. This allows the sutured tendon to heal better on the bone. Earlier postoperative mobilization of the shoulder and shorter healing courses are the result. Our shoulder surgery experts are available for numerous diseases and symptoms and treat with minimally invasive procedures, for example

Ulnar nerve syndrome: In ulnar nerve syndrome, minimally invasive surgery can be used to expose the nerve to reduce discomfort.
Elbow arthrosis: In the case of arthrosis-related stiffening of the elbow, the malpositioning of the joint can be reduced and motor function improved again by means of minimally invasive surgery.
Surgery for tennis elbow / tennis elbow: The tensions that are causative for tennis elbow or tennis elbow can be minimally invasively removed using the latest therapies, thus providing targeted relief from the symptoms.

The use of minimally invasive procedures in shoulder surgery ensures significantly smaller incisions, which represent a correspondingly lower risk potential for complications during the healing process than was the case with previously common operations using conservative incision patterns. This also spares the organism, which spares more energy for the actual healing process. Our experts, first and foremost our shoulder specialist and specialist for orthopedics and trauma surgery Prof. Dr. med. habil. Peter Diehl, not only offer you optimal support in the classic care, but are also available to you for a professional second opinion if required.
