What are the success rates of reverse shoulder replacement surgery in Australia?

Reverse total shoulder replacements have been commonly used for over 20 years now, although because of the design, many surgeons were “slow adopters”, waiting to see the results before recommending them to patients. The results have been remarkable and have transformed many peoples lives. Like all joint replacements ( Hips, Knees and shoulders), there are risks, and one of those is the risk of long term loosening, requiring a revision procedure, however this risk seems lower than expected and approaches the figures of those of knee replacements ( not quite as good as yet). All surgeons are invited to enter their procedures in the national joint replacement registry, and Dr Nimon actively participates in this.
