Postarthroscopic glenohumeral chondrolysis (PAGCL) is a rare complication of arthroscopic surgery and involves chondrolysis wherein the articular cartilage of the shoulder undergoes rapid, degenerative changes shortly after arthroscopic surgery.[1]
Signs and symptoms
Causes
Bupivacaine, lidocaine, ropivacaine and levobupivacaine are all toxic to cartilage and their intra-articular infusions can lead to this toxic effect.[2] Intra-articular pain pumps with local anesthetics have been implicated as a potential cause.[3]
Diagnosis
Treatment
Total Joint Arthroplasty or reverse total joint arthroplasty (shoulder replacement surgery)[citation needed]
