Hemi Shoulder Replacement

Home  /  Hemi Shoulder Replacement
Hemi shoulder replacement, or partial shoulder replacement, is a surgical procedure involving the replacement of only one half of the shoulder joint with artificial components. It is typically indicated for conditions such as severe humeral head fractures or avascular necrosis.
1
Incision

An incision is made over the shoulder joint to access the humeral head.

2
Bone Preparation

The damaged portion of the humeral head is meticulously excised while preserving the glenoid (socket) portion.

3
Implant Placement

A prosthetic component, usually consisting of a metal ball attached to a stem, is securely implanted into the humeral head.

4
Closure

The incision is closed, and appropriate wound dressing is applied.

Benefits of
Surgery

Hemi shoulder replacement effectively alleviates pain and discomfort associated with conditions affecting the humeral head. By preserving the glenoid portion of the shoulder joint, this procedure maintains joint integrity and may contribute to improved stability. Many patients experience improved shoulder function and range of motion following surgery.

Rehabilitation

Comprehensive rehabilitation, including physical therapy, is vital for optimizing shoulder strength, mobility, and function post-surgery.

Activity Adjustment

Patients are advised to refrain from strenuous activities initially to prevent complications and promote healing.

Follow-up Monitoring

Regular follow-up appointments with the surgeon are scheduled to monitor post-operative progress, evaluate fracture healing, and address any concerns.
