The shoulder is a complex joint that has many different parts working together to provide proper movement and function. When injury occurs, a wide variety of things can happen. Commonly, patients experience frozen shoulder, which is the restriction of motion due to inflammation of the tissue that makes up the joint. Other types of complications can be with the ball and socket dynamic of the shoulder. Lack of circulation, arthritis or fracturing resulting from injury can create complications with the ball portion of the joint. In this case a hemiarthroplasty would be necessary.
