Reverse total shoulder replacement is an advanced surgical technique specifically designed for rotator cuff tear arthropathy, a condition where you suffer from both shoulder arthritis and a rotator cuff tear.
Total shoulder replacement surgery is performed to relieve symptoms of severe shoulder pain and disability due to arthritis. In this surgery, the damaged articulating parts of the shoulder joint are removed and replaced with artificial prostheses.
Shoulder arthroscopy is a minimally invasive diagnostic and surgical procedure for conditions and injuries involving the bones, cartilage, tendons, ligaments, and muscles of the shoulder joint.
The brachial plexus is a network of nerves responsible for the movement and sensation in your arms and hands. A traumatic injury can usually involve damage to these nerves, and result in weakness, loss of feeling, or loss of movement in the affected extremity.
Nerve transfer is a procedure to repair a nerve injury resulting in loss of muscle function or sensation.
