Understanding Shoulder Replacement Surgery:
Shoulder replacement surgery, also known as shoulder arthroplasty, is a surgical procedure designed to replace damaged or diseased parts of the shoulder joint with artificial components, known as prostheses. This procedure is typically recommended for patients with severe shoulder arthritis, rotator cuff tears, or traumatic injury, whose symptoms have not responded to conservative treatments such as medication, physical therapy, or injections.
The surgical process involves:
- Preoperative Evaluation: Before surgery, patients undergo a comprehensive evaluation, including medical history review, physical examination, and diagnostic imaging such as X-rays or MRI scans, to assess the extent of shoulder damage and determine the appropriate surgical approach.
- Surgical Procedure: During shoulder replacement surgery, the orthopedic surgeon removes damaged bone and cartilage from the shoulder joint and replaces them with artificial components made of metal alloys, high-grade plastics, or ceramics. The prosthetic components are carefully selected and customized to fit each patient’s unique anatomy and restore normal shoulder function.
- Rehabilitation and Recovery: Following surgery, patients undergo a structured rehabilitation program, which may include physical therapy, exercises, and gradual mobilization to restore strength, flexibility, and range of motion in the shoulder joint. Our team provides comprehensive postoperative care and support to ensure a smooth recovery and optimal outcomes for every patient.
