Have you been told you may need a total shoulder replacement? Anika’s joint preservation and restoration systems are designed to remove less bone than a traditional total shoulder, preserve native anatomy, provide greater and more natural range of motion, and ultimately allow patients to return to the active lifestyle they love.
Anika offers several minimally invasive alternatives to traditional total shoulder replacements including the Anika Shoulder HemiCAP® System, the OVO® Shoulder Arthroplasty Systems and the OVOMotion® with Inlay Glenoid Shoulder Arthroplasty Systems. These implants provide bone and tissue sparing techniques and are designed to reduce pain, improve range of motion, and prevent further damage to the joint. Our anatomic, stemless shoulder systems are designed with the patient in mind and include a range of options shown to be an effective treatment for joint conditions associated with glenohumeral osteoarthritis, avascular necrosis, Hill-Sachs lesions and post-traumatic degenerative disease. With options from a stemless partial shoulder implant (hemiarthroplasty) to total shoulder replacements, Anika’s shoulder systems address pain and support an anatomic repair, which allows patients to return to the activities they love.
