Our first experience with the use of hydroxyapatite paste to improve the integration of the glenoid component of a reverse prosthesis with a bone defect of the scapula (case report)

The problem of reverse shoulder arthroplasty with various deformities the glenoid is relevant for modern traumatology and orthopedics. In addition to defects, methods solving which can be eccentric reaming by milling cutters, bone autoplasty, augmentation, use individual implants, orthopedic traumatologists have deal a decrease in mineral density tissue scapula. aim this study demonstrate possibility using hydroxyapatite paste together autoplasty revision conditions massive defect reduced density. Discussion. article presents case surgical treatment patient consequences fracture proximal metaepiphysis humerus local osteoporosis method combination paste. A detailed description operation technique given. Conclusion. described clinical demonstrates effectiveness preparations joint replacement.
