Types of Shoulder Replacement

Restoring Shoulder Function with Advanced Surgical Solutions

What is Shoulder Replacement Surgery?

Shoulder replacement surgery is a procedure that replaces damaged or arthritic parts of the shoulder joint with artificial implants to restore mobility, relieve pain, and improve overall function. This surgery is recommended for patients with severe shoulder arthritis, fractures, rotator cuff tears, or joint degeneration that do not respond to non-surgical treatments.

Dr. Abhinav Mishra, an expert in shoulder replacement surgeries, offers customized treatment plans based on the patient’s condition and lifestyle needs.

You may need shoulder replacement if you experience:

  • Fractures or trauma to the shoulder joint.
  • Rotator cuff injuries that cannot be repaired.
  • Frequent shoulder dislocations or instability.
  • Chronic shoulder pain even at rest.

Types of Shoulder Replacement Surgery.

Total Shoulder Replacement (Anatomic Shoulder Arthroplasty)
  • Best for: Osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, or severe shoulder joint damage.
  • Procedure: The damaged ball (humeral head) is replaced with a metal implant, and the socket (glenoid) is replaced with a smooth plastic surface.
  • Benefits: Provides natural shoulder movement, long-lasting pain relief, and improved strength.
Reverse Shoulder Replacement
  • Best for: Large rotator cuff tears, cuff tear arthropathy, and failed previous shoulder surgeries.
  • Procedure: The positions of the ball and socket are reversed – the ball is placed on the shoulder blade, and the socket is attached to the arm bone. This allows the deltoid muscle to take over shoulder movement instead of the damaged rotator cuff.
  • Benefits: Provides better stability, reduces pain, and allows arm movement even with a torn rotator cuff.
Partial Shoulder Replacement (Hemiarthroplasty)
  • Best for: Severe humeral head fractures, but with an intact socket.
  • Procedure: Only the ball (humeral head) of the shoulder joint is replaced with a metal implant while keeping the natural socket intact.
  • Benefits: Less invasive than total replacement, preserves bone, and allows a quicker recovery.
Shoulder Revision Surgery
  • Best for: Patients who had a previous shoulder replacement that has worn out, loosened, or failed.
  • Procedure: The old implant is removed and replaced with a new one, often using advanced techniques to restore shoulder function.
  • Benefits: Restores movement, reduces pain, and corrects implant failures or complications.
