Safe Areas for the Placement of Standard Shoulder Arthroscopy Portals: An Anatomical Study

The abundant vascular structures that surround the shoulder joint are complex and variable, complicating arthroscopy approaches. The aim of this study is to determine safe and risky areas around standard posterior and standard anterior portals, and accounting for the distribution of neurovascular st...
