Dealing with shoulder arthritis but want to avoid full joint replacement? A shoulder resurfacing procedure can preserve bone stock while relieving pain. At Kulkarni Orthopaedic and Surgical Centre in Bangalore, Dr. Jayateerth Kulkarni performs this joint-conserving technique to cap the damaged surface of the shoulder, especially in younger or moderately arthritic patients.
Benefits of resurfacing include:
- Reduced surgical trauma
- Preservation of natural joint anatomy
- Faster rehabilitation
- Option for future replacement if needed
Dr. Jayateerth Kulkarni carefully selects candidates through X-rays and shoulder assessments. This technique provides excellent results in patients who lead active lives and want to avoid the long-term limitations of full joint replacements. The goal is to provide relief without compromising future treatment options.
