Shoulder arthritis in a body builder managed with a ream and run

An active bodybuilder in his mid 50s presented with bilateral shoulder pain and these radiographs





He elected to have bilateral ream and run procedures so that he could continue his weight training.
At two years after surgery, he returned to the office with comfortable and functional shoulders and these x-rays.




At three years after surgery he sent these videos and kindly allowed us to share them here.




The surgical technique for this procedure can be seen on YouTube by clicking on this link and this link.
