Advanced Solutions: The Enovis AltiVate® Reverse System(opens in a new tab)

For patients facing severe shoulder arthritis combined with rotator cuff damage, Dr. Torrez uses the AltiVate® Reverse system from Enovis: an innovative implant designed for challenges that traditional shoulder replacements can’t fully address. This system is uniquely engineered to compensate for the loss of rotator cuff function, relying on the strength of the deltoid muscle to restore movement and stability in the joint.

The AltiVate® Reverse system features state-of-the-art components built for both durability and natural motion. Its bone-conserving design preserves as much healthy bone as possible, which often means a less invasive surgery and the potential for a quicker recovery. The implant uses modern materials, including a smooth, high-quality metal ball and long-lasting plastic socket, so you can count on lasting pain relief and strong joint performance for years to come.

What truly sets the AltiVate® Reverse system apart is its ability to reduce pain, enhance shoulder function, and improve overall quality of life, even for those with complex shoulder conditions. Clinical results show that this approach can provide better outcomes for people with severe rotator cuff injuries and arthritis, helping them regain strength and flexibility they may have thought was lost.
