Reverse ShoulderArthroplasty
Reverse total shoulder replacement or arthroplasty, is an advanced surgical technique specifically designed for rotator cuff tear arthropathy, a condition where the patient suffers from both shoulder arthritis and a rotator cuff tear. In reverse total shoulder replacement, the placement of the artificial components is essentially reversed with the humeral ball component being placed in the glenoid cavity and the artificial socket fixed to the top of the arm bone.
ShoulderArthroscopy
Shoulder arthroscopy is performed using a pencil-sized instrument called an arthroscope. The arthroscope consists of a light system and camera that projects images of the surgical site onto a computer screen for your doctor to clearly view. Arthroscopy is used to treat disease conditions and injuries involving the bones, cartilage, tendons, ligaments, and muscles of the shoulder joint.
