Shoulder Replacement

What is Shoulder Replacement?

Shoulder Replacement

Shoulder replacement is a surgical procedure that replaces the damaged shoulder joint with a high-quality artificial implant. The procedure is designed to relieve pain, restore smooth joint movement, and improve overall function.

✅ Eliminates Shoulder Pain & Stiffness

✅ Restores Strength & Range of Motion

✅ Enhances Mobility & Daily Functionality

Who Needs Shoulder Replacement?

You may be a candidate for shoulder replacement if you experience:

✔ Severe Shoulder Pain – Persistent pain that affects sleep and daily activities.

✔ Advanced Osteoarthritis or Rheumatoid Arthritis – Joint damage leading to stiffness and discomfort.

✔ Rotator Cuff Tear Arthropathy – Severe damage to the rotator cuff causing joint instability.

✔ Shoulder Fracture or Trauma – Damage that affects joint stability and function.

✔ Failure of Non-Surgical Treatments – No relief from medications, injections, or physiotherapy.

Types of Shoulder Replacement Surgery:

✅ Total Shoulder Replacement (Anatomic TSA):

  • Replaces both the ball (humeral head) and socket (glenoid) of the shoulder joint.
  • Best for arthritis with intact rotator cuff muscles.

✅ Reverse Shoulder Replacement (RSA):

  • Reverses the natural ball-and-socket structure for better stability.
  • Ideal for rotator cuff tears, severe arthritis, or failed previous surgery.

✅ Partial Shoulder Replacement (Hemiarthroplasty):

  • Only the humeral head (ball) is replaced.
  • Suitable for certain fractures or mild arthritis.

What Happens During Shoulder Replacement?

1️⃣ Damaged bone and cartilage are removed from the shoulder joint.

2️⃣ A high-quality artificial implant (metal, ceramic, or plastic) is placed.

3️⃣ The new shoulder joint allows for smooth, pain-free movement.

4️⃣ Patients typically start gentle movement within a few days with guided rehabilitation.
