Shoulder Arthroplasty in Bangladesh
Shoulder replacement, also known as shoulder arthroplasty, is a procedure in which an orthopaedic surgeon uses a prosthetic to repair the ball joint at the upper end of the humerus (upper arm bone) and, in some cases, the scapula (shoulder bone).
Doctors may recommend a shoulder replacement surgery to restore comfortable mobility to the joint when the cartilage is weakened by disease or wears out with age. When all other treatments have failed, shoulder replacement surgery is considered a last resort. Before recommending surgery, doctors will try to treat the disorder with medicine and physical therapy.
