Shoulder Arthroplasty

Shoulder Arthroplasty

Shoulder Arthroplasty, also known as shoulder joint replacement, is a surgical procedure in orthopaedics designed to relieve pain and restore function in a damaged or diseased shoulder joint. This procedure involves replacing the damaged parts of the shoulder joint with artificial components, typically made of metal and plastic. Orthopedic surgeons may recommend shoulder arthroplasty for various conditions, including osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, or severe fractures that affect the shoulder joint. The surgery aims to alleviate pain, improve joint mobility, and enhance the overall quality of life for individuals with debilitating shoulder conditions.
There are different types of shoulder arthroplasty procedures, such as total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA), hemiarthroplasty, and reverse shoulder arthroplasty. The choice of procedure depends on the specific condition and the extent of joint damage. Rehabilitation following shoulder arthroplasty is a crucial component of the recovery process, involving physical therapy to restore strength, flexibility, and function to the shoulder. While shoulder arthroplasty is generally successful in relieving pain and improving function, it is essential for patients to follow postoperative care instructions and attend regular follow-up appointments with their orthopedic team to monitor progress and address any concerns.
