Understanding

Total Shoulder Replacement

Total Shoulder Replacement (TSR), also known as Total Shoulder Arthroplasty, is a surgical procedure in which the damaged parts of the shoulder joint are replaced with artificial implants.

The ball (humeral head) and the socket (glenoid) are replaced to relieve pain, restore shoulder function, and improve mobility.Β 

This procedure is commonly recommended for patients with severe arthritis, fractures, or degenerative shoulder conditions that do not respond to conservative treatments.

Anatomy of the Total Shoulder Replacement

  • The shoulder is a ball-and-socket joint that provides the widest range of motion in the body. It consists of:

    • Humeral Head: The ball-shaped upper end of the upper arm bone.
    • Glenoid: The shallow socket of the shoulder blade (scapula).
    • Articular Cartilage: Smooth tissue covering the joint surfaces for friction-free movement.
    • Rotator Cuff Muscles and Tendons: Stabilize and move the shoulder.
    • Labrum: A ring of cartilage that deepens the socket and improves stability.

    During Total Shoulder Replacement, both the humeral head and the glenoid are replaced with artificial components.
