Surgery for Shoulder Pain and Inflammation

The provider incises the sternoclavicular joint, where the breastbone joins the collar bone at the shoulder. The provider removes some of the membrane in the joint to relieve pain and inflammation due to conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis. The provider may take a sample of tissue to submit to a laboratory for analysis. Choose a location to see hospital-reported price summaries.
