Shoulder Arthroplasty: Historical Considerations
نویسنده
چکیده
Background The first articular metal prosthesis was implanted in the shoulder more than 120 years ago. The aim of this paper is to report shoulder arthroplasty evolution during this time thru the literature of the twentieth century. Methods A literature review was performed selecting the founding papers about shoulder arthroplasty. Results After being almost forgotten during the first part of the 20th century, various implants were introduced in the 1950s with Charles Neer as a leader. The reverse concept appeared in the 1970s and knew many failures before Grammont's design. Conclusion After many unfortunate trials, the shoulder prosthesis is now widely disseminated with products of many companies.

Background: Successful repair of a torn rotator cuff may prevent progression to rotator cuff arthropathy. However,previous studies have shown a substantial rate of failure after rotator cuff repair and characteristics of surgicallyrepaired rotator cuffs that go on to shoulder arthroplasty have not been fully elucidated. The purpose of this study wasto determine the patient cha...

متن کاملRevision of Anatomic Total Shoulder Arthroplasty to Hemiarthroplasty: Does it work?
Background: The projected increase in revision shoulder arthroplasty has increased interest in the outcomes of theseprocedures. Glenoid component removal and conversion to a hemiarthroplasty (HA) is an option for aseptic glenoidloosening after anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty (aTSA).Methods: We identified patients who had undergone revision shoulder arthroplasty over a 15-...
