Shoulder Replacement

Shoulder replacement, also known as shoulder arthroplasty, brings relief by replacing damaged bone areas with metal and plastic implants. This surgery is quite effective for addressing pain, weakness, and stiffness caused by joint damage in the ball-and-socket structure of the shoulder. The implants come in various shapes and sizes, offering options like anatomic total shoulder replacement where both the ball and socket are replaced, reflecting the natural bone shapes, or reverse total shoulder replacement, where the implants are reversed, helpful when the rotator cuff is severely affected. Partial shoulder replacement, replacing only the ball side of the joint, is another choice depending on the extent of damage. Overall, noormedicare understands the importance of these procedures for enhancing quality of life and restoring functionality in patients experiencing shoulder joint issues.
