Total Shoulder Replacement with Arthrex® Univers™ II

In this video, we demonstrate total shoulder replacement surgery using the Arthrex Univers™ II system, an advanced solution for treating shoulder arthritis and restoring joint function. Shoulder arthritis occurs when the cartilage within the joint wears down over time, leading to pain, stiffness, and limited mobility. When conservative treatments fail, shoulder arthroplasty becomes an effective option to relieve pain and restore movement. 🔧 Procedure Overview The procedure begins with surgical exposure of the shoulder joint. A cutting guide is placed on the humeral head to ensure accurate alignment, and guide wires and pins are inserted to control the angle of bone resection. The surgeon then removes the damaged portion of the humeral head and prepares the bone using drills and reamers to accommodate the prosthesis. A trial implant is placed to evaluate fit, alignment, and joint mechanics before final implantation. Attention is then directed to the glenoid (socket), where the surface is prepared by removing damaged cartilage and shaping the bone for implant fixation. Cement is applied, and the glenoid implant is secured into position. Finally, the humeral component is implanted into the shaft, and the prosthetic head is placed. The surgeon tests the joint for range of motion and stability before completing the procedure. ✅ Key Benefits of Univers™ II Shoulder Replacement Restores smooth joint motion and stability Relieves chronic shoulder pain from arthritis Anatomically designed for natural biomechanics Allows individualized implant positioning Durable fixation for long-term outcomes 🏃 Recovery & Outcomes Following shoulder joint replacement surgery, patients typically undergo: Early passive motion exercises Gradual strengthening Progressive return to daily activity 🎯 Who This Video Is For Orthopedic surgeons & residents Sports medicine specialists Patients researching shoulder arthroplasty Medical device professionals Most patients experience significant improvement in pain and function, enabling a return to normal life activities. 👇 Helpful Arthrex Reference Links: https://www.arthrex.com/resources/AN1... https://www.arthrex.com?utm_source=yo... 👍 Like, comment, and subscribe to see more patient success stories and innovations in minimally invasive orthopedic procedures.
