Shoulder replacement
The procedure of shoulder replacement is a minimally invasive replacement procedure that our surgeon frequently recommends. The steps involved in the surgery include,
- Anesthesia: A regional anesthesia with interscalene block or general anesthesia will be given to the patients to avoid pain and discomfort during the procedure. The person is operating in the sitting position.
- Surgery: The procedure will begin with an incision in the shoulder area that has to be treated. Then, the deltoid and the petrol muscles are separated to give a sizable nerve-free area by which there will be no danger of any damages to the nerve. The anterior rotator cuff of the muscles is cut to view and manipulate the arthritis part to feel the pain. These parts are mainly the ball and the socket.
- The implant: The damaged part is removed and then implanted in the new socket and the stem component. The implants are of multiple types but mainly share the metal ball’s essential part against the plastic socket. Our goals will remove the arthritis humeral head and replace it with the implant of the metal ball and the sockets in the replacement process.
After completing the implantation, the surgeon stitches the rotator cuff muscles and then finally stitches the incision and covers it using the temporary bandage.
