Reverse Delta Shoulder Replacement

Description: Sheila Cape was "pretty miserable" after a third shoulder operation in as many years provided only temporary pain relief. She sought help from Dr. Rick Matsen, orthopaedic surgeon at the University of Washington Medical Center. Cape and Matsen discuss the reverse ball-socket shoulder procedure that restored her motion and halted her pain. The program also includes surgery footage and details about the reverse ball-socket technique, which can improve function in shoulders with combined arthritis, rotator cuff tears and instability issues.
