Humeral head prostheses

Humeral head prostheses

The humeral head prosthesis replaces the humeral head with a metal replacement. The humeral head prosthesis is attached to a tapered titanium alloy stem, which fits inside the horn of the thigh. The patient is able to carry out normal activities after the surgery. However, the implant should be stable to avoid slipping and causing infection. The screw should be secure to limit the risk of fracture.

The procedure is usually performed under general or local anaesthesia and involves a small incision. A deltoid muscle is split to expose the humeral head. A reamed surface is then added to the humeral head to regain its shape. The surgeon will then fix the humeral head to the bone. This is the same procedure as a traditional arthroplasty.

A stemless humeral head prosthesis is a relatively new concept in shoulder arthroplasty. In order to fully evaluate the implant, radiological and clinical follow-up studies are essential. A prospective single-centre study was conducted to evaluate the impact of postoperative radiological changes on the outcome of patients. The procedure may be performed under local or general anaesthesia and may involve a deltoid muscle split.

Resection arthroplasty is the surgical procedure where the humeral head is removed and its prosthetic components are replaced. This procedure is generally used for severe cases, and is only done if no other reconstructive options are available. In addition, it is rarely a viable option for people with a fractured shaft. This surgery is usually only performed in extreme cases. This surgery is a life-changing procedure for a patient.

The humeral head prosthesis is designed to fit the glenoid and is secured by two screws. The deltoid is the only joint between the humeral head and the glenoid. The two components are attached with the humeral head using a cage screw. The cage screw is then inserted into the cage. The glenoid component is cemented. This is a permanent solution.

Resurfacing is an alternative to total shoulder arthroplasty. This procedure is similar to the previous one, but the humeral head is reversed. The glenoid is not repositioned, and the stem is attached to a base plate. The humeral head is secured with screws. The glenoid prosthesis has a metal stem and polyethylene-lined cup. The glenoid has to be fixed properly to be effective.

In the study, 93 patients underwent anatomical shoulder arthroplasty and a stemless anatomical shaft prosthesis. The stemless implant is fixed to the glenoid and the anatomical neck. This prosthesis is anatomical, and the humeral head can be rotated in either direction. It is an alternative to arthroplasty that is not anatomical. It allows for a range of anatomical shoulder reconstruction, implantation in a shaft malunion, and revision surgery.
