Shoulder Replacement in Ahmedabad
Shoulder replacement is a surgical procedure in which damaged parts of the shoulder joint are replaced with artificial components.
Shoulder replacement relieves pain from advanced arthritis, rotator cuff arthropathy or a complex fracture of the shoulder. The damaged ball and socket surfaces are replaced so the arm can move comfortably again.
Depending on the state of the rotator cuff, either an anatomic or a reverse replacement is chosen — the difference matters greatly for the final function.
At Aryav Super Speciality Hospital, Sola, Ahmedabad, Gujarat, this treatment is planned and performed by Dr. Binoy G. Palkhiwala and the clinical team, supported by advanced imaging, modular operation theatres, dedicated intensive care and an in-house rehabilitation unit.
