Abstract

The anatomical structure of the shoulder joint is eminently suited to arthroscopic examination. The joint itself is spacious, the capsule is loose; according to Fick a second humeral head would fit into the joint [10, 25]. From an anatomical point of view the placement of arthroscopic portals may be somewhat more difficult than in the knee joint, but they are equally nontraumatic and safe, provided a few clear rules are followed [6].
