Videos of some patients' function after the ream and run

Once again, we have regular readers who pointed out that we omitted some nice videos showing the function after a ream and run. With apologies, here is the updated post.

The ream and run procedure is of increasing interest to highly active patients wishing to avoid the potential risks of a plastic glenoid component. The procedure is also of interest to the next generation of shoulder surgeons. At the University of Washington we recently had the great pleasure of interviewing a group of outstanding candidates for our one year shoulder fellowship. They expressed interest in seeing some video regarding the ream and run procedure so we share some of them here.

hitting the bag after the ream and run

playing racquetball after the ream and run

rock climbing after the ream and run

throwing batting practice after the ream and run

cross fit after the ream and run

We also remind prospective ream and run patients and surgeons that this procedure is not for everyone and that the recovery of the biologic glenoid arthroplasty takes time as shown here.

Shoulder function two years after ream and run: persistence, pool, patience

I'm always grateful to patients for keeping in touch and sharing the stories of their recovery after a ream and run.

Here's a most enjoyable youtube two years after a ream and run on the left shoulder.

This is the same patient whose x-rays and story are shown on a previous blog.

Thanks Mr.SS for sending!

Four things:
(1) Not everyone had the severe degree of anatomical distortion before surgery as was present in this case
(2) Not everyone puts forth the effort in rehab that this man did
(3) Not everyone achieves this level of function after a ream and run
(4) These activities are substantially beyond what is recommended for a conventional total shoulder
