Arthritis is a common cause of shoulder pain and mobility loss. Shoulder joint replacement surgery (arthroplasty) is performed to replace a shoulder joint with artificial components (prostheses). This restores the function and comfort to shoulders when the joint is severely damaged by degenerative joint diseases as arthritis or in complex cases of upper arm bone fracture. The shoulder joint replacement surgery is exclusively designed to treat:

• Osteoarthritis
• Rheumatoid and Post-traumatic arthritis
• Failed shoulder replacement surgery
• Avascular necrosis
• Rotator cuff tear arthropathy (a combination of severe arthritis and a massive non-reparable rotator cuff tendon tear)
