Reverse Total Shoulder Replacement
Reverse total shoulder replacement is used in cases of severe arthritis or injuries that have destroyed the shoulder joint. During surgery, the head of the humerus is removed and a metal cup is placed in its place. The glenoid cavity is replaced with a metal ball. This procedure may be beneficial for patients with certain conditions, such as rheumatoid arthritis.
