Healio, Dec. 17, 2024
Healio reports on a UTMB study that found that hypothyroidism may be associated with increased perioperative and implant complications after shoulder arthroplasty. “This is a valuable finding which holds significant importance for both surgeons and hypothyroid patients, influencing their choices between shoulder arthroplasty and non-surgical options,” Jad J. Lawand, medical student at UTMB, and colleagues wrote in the study.
