Mumbai Hospital Launches India's First Ever Arthrex Modular Glenoid System with VIP for Advanced Shoulder Replacement
By Author : Dr. Deepanshu Siwach
08 May,2024- Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani Hospital, Mumbai, introduces the Arthrex Modular Glenoid System with Virtual Implant Positioning (VIP) for the first time in India. This is the latest addition to the field of joint replacement surgeries.
- On average, 5,400+ shoulder replacement surgeries are done by trained and skilled shoulder replacement surgeons in India. Using a Virtual Implant Positioning System will significantly improve the scenario of shoulder replacement surgery in the country.
- Shoulder replacement is recommended for patients experiencing excruciating pain due to arthritis or injuries of the shoulder. Traditional shoulder surgery does not offer customization according to the individual patient's anatomy and sometimes struggles with the precision of implant placement.
- With the Arthrex Modular Glenoid System launched by the Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani Hospital, precision and customization are no longer an issue for shoulder replacement surgeries. The new technique offers several benefits, such as –
- Minimally invasive surgery
- Creates a virtual shoulder model
- Ensures unmatched precision
- Customization according to each patient
- Reduces postoperative complications
- Promotes faster recovery
- The Arthrex System helps surgeons plan the precise placement of shoulder implants before surgery. It creates a virtual shoulder unique to each patient. This minimally invasive surgery reduces the chances of complications and promotes faster recovery.
- Dr. Shreyash Gajjar, an internationally trained Sports Medicine Specialist and Joint Replacement Surgeon, performed the first-ever shoulder replacement surgery using the Arthrex System. He works as Unit Lead at Kokilaben Hospital and said, "The Arthrex Modular Glenoid System with VIP is a paradigm shift in shoulder arthroplasty. It empowers surgeons with the tools to achieve precise accuracy and customization, leading to superior outcomes for our patients. Patients enjoy enhanced comfort and satisfaction, experiencing improved shoulder function and a swift return to normal activities. Our method prioritizes individual needs, ensuring optimal outcomes surpassing traditional technique."
- Kokilaben Hospital launched the recently developed system by performing a live Reverse Total Shoulder Replacement Surgery using the VIP System. The multispecialty hospital specializes in sports medicine and is renowned for innovative and advanced techniques. With the availability of the Arthrex Modular Glenoid System with Virtual Implant Positioning, it now offers personalized care to shoulder surgery patients.

"I am Adam from Kano, Nigeria, one of my friends from Nigeria was facilitated by Medi Journey, and he recommended us to go with them. I sent my all reports to them and within 48 hours they reverted with 4 options from different hospitals.
