The Bone & Joint Center is a regional leader in the diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation of a wide variety of shoulder and elbow problems.

We specialize in all aspects of nonsurgical and surgical orthopedic care for shoulder and elbow conditions.

 

Shoulder Conditions We Treat


  • AC joint separation – When the collarbone (clavicle) separates from the shoulder blade (scapula)
  • Arthritis of the shoulder – Pain, stiffness, and immobility in the glenohumeral or acromioclavicular (AC) joints of the shoulder
  • Biceps tendon tear – Injury to the tendon that attaches the biceps muscle to the shoulder
  • Bursitis – Inflammation of the fluid-filled sacs (bursae) that protect joints
  • Clavicle fracture – A break in the collarbone
  • Dislocated shoulder – When the “ball” of the upper arm bone (humerus) pops out of the shoulder blade “socket”
  • Frozen shoulder – Stiffness and pain in the shoulder that inhibits movement, especially raising  the arm; also called adhesive capsulitis
  • Rotator cuff tear – Injury to the tendons of the rotator cuff in the shoulder, which powers the shoulder and arm
  • Shoulder impingement syndrome – When tendons in the shoulder are compressed and irritated; also called swimmer’s shoulder
  • Shoulder instability – Improper functioning of the shoulder joint, such as a tendency to become dislocated, due to a lack of support by structures surrounding the joint
  • Sprains and strains – Stretched or torn ligaments, muscles, or tendons of the shoulder
  • Tendonitis – Inflamed tendons in the shoulder, which connect muscle to bone

 

Elbow Conditions We Treat


  • Arthritis – Pain, stiffness, and immobility in the hinge joint of the elbow
  • Bone spurs and fragments – Abnormal bone growths (spurs) and loose pieces of bone or cartilage (fragments) in the elbow
  • Cubital tunnel syndrome – When the ulnar (“funny bone”) nerve, which extends from the neck to the fingers, is compressed at the elbow
  • Elbow (olecranon) bursitis – Inflammation of the fluid-filled sac (bursa) at the elbow’s tip
  • Fractures – A broken bone in the elbow
  • Golfer's elbow – Pain and inflammation on the inside of the elbow typically due to overuse of wrist and finger muscles; also called medial epicondylitis
  • Pitcher’s elbow – Pain and inflammation of the growth plate inside the elbow of adolescents; also called medial epicondyle apophysitis or “little league elbow”
  • Sprains – Stretched or torn ligaments connecting bone to bone within the elbow
  • Tennis elbow – Pain and inflammation on the outside of the elbow typically due to overuse of wrist and finger muscles; also called lateral epicondylitis

 

Treatments for Shoulder & Elbow Conditions


Common shoulder and elbow orthopedic treatments we offer include:

 Shoulder Procedures We Perform


  • Shoulder arthroscopy – Surgery to view the inside of the shoulder joint and repair damaged tissue(muscle, cartilage, tendons, ligaments)
  • Rotator cuff repair – Surgery to reattach torn tendons to the head of the upper arm bone; if tendons are only partially torn, a surgical trimming is typically performed
  • Bankart repair – A Bankart lesion is a tear in the glenoid labrum (rim of the shoulder socket) in the lower part of the shoulder joint. This procedure is performed to restore shoulder stability by surgically repairing the labrum and reattaching and tightening ligaments torn by repeated shoulder dislocations.
  • SLAP lesion repair – A SLAP lesion is a tear in the glenoid labrum (rim of the shoulder socket) in the upper part of the shoulder joint (Superior Labrum, Anterior to Posterior). This procedure is performed to restore shoulder stability by surgically repairing the labrum and reattaching and tightening ligaments torn by repeated shoulder dislocations.
  • Ligament repair – A shoulder reconstruction surgery that seeks to improve shoulder stability and prevent joint dislocations by surgically repairing torn or stretched ligaments connecting bone-to-bone in the shoulder
  • Removal of inflamed tissue, loose cartilage, or bone spurs – Shoulder surgery to remove tissue that may be causing pain or inflammation in the area
  • Total shoulder replacement – Surgery to replace all or part of the shoulder joint, involving the “ball” of the upper arm (humerus) and “socket” of the shoulder blade (scapula), with artificial parts
  • Reverse shoulder replacement– Surgical replacement of the shoulder joint with a prosthesis, but switching placement of the “ball” and “socket” to avoid engaging damaged rotator cuff muscles
  • Ultrasound-guided injections – Use of noninvasive imaging to guide precise placement of medication, such as anti-inflammatory steroids, being injected into the shoulder joint
  • PRP therapy – Injecting platelet-rich plasma (obtained from a patient’s own blood) into the shoulder to boost healing; often used in conjunction with tendon repair procedures

 

 Elbow Procedures We Perform


  • Arthroscopic debridement – A minimally invasive procedure to remove damaged bone or cartilage around the joint
  • Elbow replacement – Surgical removal of the hinge joint of the elbow, and addition of a prosthesis to take its place
  • PRP therapy – Injecting platelet-rich plasma (obtained from a patient’s own blood) into the elbow to boost healing; may be used on its own to boost healing of tendonitis or in conjunction with surgical tendon repair procedures
  • Ulnar nerve transposition – Surgical relocation of the ulnar (“funny bone”) nerve to the front of the elbow; used to treat nerve compression in cubital tunnel syndrome
  • Ultrasound-guided injections – Use of noninvasive imaging to guide precise placement of medication, such as anti-inflammatory steroids, being injected into the elbow joint
