Approximately 60% of all shoulder replacements result from proximal humeral fractures. A proximal humeral fracture is a break to the ball at the top of the upper-arm bone. These fractures typically occur when people fall on an outstretched hand.
The URSA Hemi-Shoulder Arthroplasty System was developed and designed to enable surgeons to repair broken bone while replacing the damaged shoulder joint. The URSA Hemi-Shoulder Arthroplasty System can allow patients to regain shoulder movement while reducing or eliminating pain.
