Reverse Shoulder Replacement in Delhi — overview

Dr. L. Tomar performs reverse shoulder replacement in Delhi at Max Super Speciality Hospital, Patparganj, and consults at the Vikash Marg clinic. Here is what the procedure involves and who it helps.

Reverse geometry shoulder replacement is designed for shoulders where the rotator cuff has failed. By reversing the ball and socket, the deltoid muscle takes over the work — reliably restoring pain-free overhead motion in elderly patients with cuff tear arthropathy.

When it's recommended

  • Cuff tear arthropathy
  • Massive irreparable rotator cuff tear with pseudo-paralysis
  • Failed prior shoulder surgery
  • Complex proximal humerus fractures in elderly

Key benefits

  • Restored overhead function
  • Reliable pain relief
  • Predictable outcome in cuff-deficient shoulders

Surgical approach

  • Careful component sizing
  • Preservation of deltoid function
  • Modern reverse geometry implants

Recovery timeline

  • Sling for 3–4 weeks
  • Early gentle range-of-motion
  • Return to daily activity in 8–12 weeks
