Shoulder arthroscopy is one of the most common orthopaedic procedures. Since its introduction in the 1970s, significant advances have been made in surgical techniques and instrumentation. Shoulder arthroscopy is often performed in either the beach-chair or lateral decubitus position, and each positioning technique has its own benefits. In this work, we will describe the history of lateral decubitus positioning for shoulder arthroscopy. We outline a detailed guide for safe and consistent lateral decubitus positioning, and key steps of lateral decubitus positioning will be emphasized. Pearls, pitfalls, advantages, and disadvantages of this positioning technique will also be discussed. With appropriate technique, lateral decubitus positioning is safe and effective for arthroscopic treatment of various shoulder pathologies. |
