"Copeland" Shoulder Resurfacing The Copeland Shoulder is a revolutionary surgery done on people with arthritic shoulders that in the past were only candidates for a total shoulder replacement. It is an appropriate option when patients are in the early stages of arthritis. This surgery preserves the bone in the shoulder and provides a secure fit for the new bone to grow into the implant. Patients can still have a total shoulder replacement later in life, but with this implant they can live a normal, less restricted lifestyle then if the were to have a total shoulder replacement. Patients as young as 45 have had this surgery performed and are thrilled with the results. The typical patient is a younger person who has had multiple surgeries on their shoulder have been told they are too young to have a shoulder replacement. The Copeland Shoulder is very new to the United States but has been successfully used in Europe for 20 years. Dr. Tsai trained with Dr. Stephan Copeland, the inventor of the Copeland system.
