The shoulder hemiarthroplasty is most often performed for one of three reasons. The first is an arthritic shoulder where the socket is not in bad condition, but the ball needs to be replaced. The second is in rotator cuff tear arthropathy, where a total should replacement would likely fail over time.
5. For a shoulder arthroscopy with decompression of subacromial space with partial acromioplasty, with or without coracoacromial release and arthroscopic rotator cuff repair, CPT has directed to use codes 29826 and 29999. There is not yet an arthroscopic procedure code for the arthroscopic rotator cuff repair.
