Bone-Sparing Shoulder Arthroplasty With Arthrex Eclipse™

Jerry Blackstone suffered from progressive osteoarthritis and severe movement restrictions that were conservatively untreatable. The treatment was performed with the Arthrex Eclipse total shoulder arthroplasty system, which allows bone-sparing implantation due to its metaphyseal fixation without intramedullary shaft.

For surgeons, this case study clarifies the indication for degenerative changes of the glenohumeral joint while explaining the technical advantages of the Arthrex Eclipse system with innovative fixation technology. It also shows the clinical added value of pain reduction, improved mobility, and high patient satisfaction in long-term follow-up.
