The Shoulder HemiCAP® system is indicated for the treatment of patients with the following clinical conditions: avascular necrosis and post-traumatic degenerative disease. The HemiCAP® joint restoration procedure is designed to match the shape and contour of the individual patient’s cartilage surface. The implants not only match the diameter of the damaged area but also the precise radius of both curvatures on the patient’s joint surface, superior to inferior (top to bottom) and medial to lateral (side to side). Once the mapping points are defined, the appropriate implant is chosen and is then implanted into the patient.
