Why Choose Shoulder Replacement Surgery?
Shoulder replacement surgery is a life-altering procedure that can be a lifesaver for patients with bad shoulder conditions, such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, or rotator cuff injuries. The surgery aims at making patients pain-free and functionally restorable with improved mobility. Here are a few reasons to consider shoulder replacement surgery:
Chronic Pain Management
If the shoulder pain hinders you severely and restricts your daily activities, then through shoulder replacement surgery, most of the painful symptoms may easily be eradicated, and you may return to your normal activities.
Restored Functionality
The surgery restores the range of motion and strength in your shoulder, and you can once again join your favourite activities in sports, lifting, or simply reaching.
Long-Term Results
Considering the advancements that have been made in shoulder replacement surgeries over the years, results are found to last for years regarding pain relief and functionality.
Types of Shoulder Replacement Surgery We Perform
At Pahune's Bone & Specialty Clinic, we offer various types of shoulder replacement surgeries tailored to meet the specific needs of our patients:
In this most common type of shoulder replacement surgery, both the humeral head (the ball of the joint) and the glenoid (the socket) are replaced with prosthetic components. This procedure is typically recommended for patients with severe arthritis or significant joint damage.
This innovative procedure involves reversing the positions of the ball and socket, allowing the deltoid muscle to compensate for damaged rotator cuff muscles. It is ideal for patients with rotator cuff tears who also have arthritis.
In cases where only one part of the shoulder joint is damaged, a partial shoulder replacement may be performed. This procedure preserves healthy bone and soft tissue, providing a quicker recovery and less postoperative pain.
If a previous shoulder replacement has failed due to complications like infection, instability, or wear and tear, revision surgery can help restore function and alleviate pain by replacing or repairing the existing prosthetic components
The Shoulder Replacement Procedure
This is a general overview of what you can expect when you undergo shoulder replacement surgery.
Anesthesia
The entire procedure will be conducted under general or regional anaesthesia, so you won’t feel anything happening.
Surgery
Your surgeon will remove the damaged parts of your shoulder joint. Where the joint itself is faulty, another substitute joint made of metals, plastics, or ceramics will replace this faulty area in your body.
Recovery
After surgery, you will be taken care of in our recovery area where our staff will be providing post-operative care and rehabilitation, including having to receive physical therapy to recover strength and mobility.
