Report
Ponnaren (Pon) Pak is a highly trained orthopaedic surgeon. He obtained his medical degree from The University of Melbourne and undertook advanced orthopaedic training in Melbourne and Sydney. He is a recognised fellow of the Australian Orthopaedic Association and the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons.
Overview
Report
The shoulder girdle consists of three bones, the humerus (arm bone), scapular (shoulder blade) and clavicle (collar bone) articulating with the chest wall. The movement of the shoulder occurs between the scapular and the chest wall and at the true shoulder joint (glenohumeral joint) itself. The clavicle is a strut and provides a bony connection between the shoulder and the remainder of the skeleton.
Shoulder Arthritis
Report
Primary osteoarthritis (OA) of the shoulder is a similar condition to that found in the hip and knee. Some patients have a genetic predisposition. The secondary cause of OA can be posttraumatic, postsurgical, or a result of persistent or recurrent shoulder instability. Common symptoms include pain with activity, pain at night, a decreased range of motion, and loss of function.
