Fluid extravasation into the surrounding tissue is common in shoulder arthroscopy. It frequently leads to soft tissue swelling and edema which results in poor visualization and prolonged surgical time. While usually resolves uneventfully within 12 hours, excessive fluid extravasation into the soft tissue around the shoulder may lead to serious consequences and complications such as airway compromise, tracheal deviation, neuropraxias, habdomyoloysis and skin necrosis have been reported in the literature. Methods aimed at reducing soft tissue swelling during shoulder arthroscopy in order to avoid complications (e.g., low pump pressure, short arthroscopic time) are routinely practiced. Nevertheless, fluid extravasation and soft tissue swelling remains a concern in shoulder arthroscopy.
