Mr. Simmons’ shoulder began deteriorating due to the strains of his weightlifting career causing intense pain. He decided to undergo surgery with the Arthrosurface Shoulder HemiCAP as an alternative to total joint replacement. After the surgery, Mr. Simmons’ pain dissolved. Today, almost 10 years after the procedure, he is still pain free and has not had any problems with the implant.
More than 50,000 patients have received HemiCAP implants, which are available in a variety of sizes and curvatures for the shoulder, hip, knee, ankle and toes. Patients have reported pain relief and rapid recovery times after the HemiCAP procedure.
