Subacromial decompression is the term used for surgery for shoulder impingement syndrome.

The surgical procedures used by doctors are designed to make more room for the tendons of the rotator cuff if shoulder surgery is necessary. Acromioplasty is accomplished by removing bone spurs that the tendon rubs on in order to make more room for the tendon to glide normally. A lubricating sack between the rotator cuff and the underside of the acromion that is inflamed by the impingement process is also removed.
