Total Shoulder Replacement Surgery by Vejthani Hospital

BANGKOK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Vejthani Hospital Bangkok offers finest Total Shoulder Replacement Surgery at Hand and Shoulder Center.

Shoulder Replacement Surgery is an option for treatment of severe arthritis of the shoulder joint. Arthritis is a condition that affects the cartilage of the joints. As the cartilage lining wears away, the protective lining between the bones is lost. When this happens, painful bone-on-bone arthritis develops. Severe shoulder arthritis is quite painful, and can cause restriction of motion.

The primary goal of shoulder replacement surgery is pain relief, with the secondary benefit of restoring motion, strength, and function.

Types of shoulder implants

The two artificial components that can be implanted in the shoulder during shoulder joint replacement surgeries are:

• The humeral component, this part replaces the head of the humerus. It is usually made of cobalt or chromium-based alloys and has a rounded ball attached to a stem that can be inserted into the bone.
• The glenoid component, this component replaces the glenoid cavity. It is made of very high-density polyethelene.

Reverse Shoulder Replacement Surgery

The Reverse Shoulder Prosthesis replaces the damaged joint. The metal-and-polyethylene implant mimics the anatomy of the natural shoulder, but provides a deeper socket to stabilize the joint. The implant is designed to compensate for the damaged rotator cuff and help to reduce the painful symptoms of arthritis.
