The shoulder is one of the most flexible joints in the human body, allowing us to perform everyday activities such as lifting, reaching, dressing, driving, and participating in sports. However, when the shoulder joint becomes severely damaged due to arthritis, injury, or degeneration, even simple movements can become painful and difficult.
Shoulder Replacement Surgery is an advanced orthopedic procedure designed to relieve chronic shoulder pain, restore joint function, and improve quality of life. It is recommended for patients whose shoulder pain has not improved with medications, physiotherapy, injections, or other non-surgical treatments.
Dr. B. Sai Phani Chandra specializes in advanced shoulder replacement procedures using modern surgical techniques, precision planning, and comprehensive rehabilitation to help patients return to an active and pain-free lifestyle.
Shoulder Replacement Surgery, also known as Shoulder Arthroplasty, involves replacing damaged parts of the shoulder joint with specially designed artificial implants.
The shoulder consists of a ball-and-socket joint, where the upper arm bone (humerus) fits into the shoulder blade (glenoid). When these joint surfaces become worn out due to arthritis or injury, the bones rub against each other, causing pain, stiffness, and limited movement.
During shoulder replacement surgery, the damaged joint surfaces are removed and replaced with high-quality metal and medical-grade plastic components. These implants are designed to restore smooth movement while significantly reducing pain.
Depending on the patient’s condition, different types of shoulder replacement procedures may be recommended.
