BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Glenoid reconstruction and inverted glenoid re-implantation is strongly advocated in revisions of failed reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA). Nevertheless, severe glenoid deficiency may preclude glenoid reconstruction and may dictate less favorable solutions, such as conversion to hemiarthropasty or resection arthropasty. The CAD/CAM shoulder (Stanmore Implants, Elstree, ...

Revision of a shoulder arthroplasty often requires removal of a well fixed humeral component. Revision of this component can be quite easy in the case of a non-infected platform stem or be very difficult when removal of a well cemented or on-growth stem with distal texturing is required. The purpose of this paper is to provide a series of techniques designed for revision of the humeral componen...

In France, the number of revisions for total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) has increased by 29% between 2006 and 2010. Published studies have reported a revision rate of approximately 11% for hemi-arthroplasty and total anatomical implants, and 10% for reversed implants. The decision to revise or not revise a TSA requires that a rigorous, clinical, laboratory and imaging initial assessment be don...

v C t a urrently, there are no reported results of patients ithout overt infection who had a positive intraoperaive culture during revision shoulder arthroplasty. We herefore reviewed the intraoperative and preoperative nvestigations as well as the postoperative course of hese patients who had positive intraoperative cultures. e reviewed the results of 75 shoulders without overt nfection that u...

BACKGROUND Fracture sequelae of the proximal part of the humerus are challenging conditions, and various treatment options have been described. The purpose of this multicenter study was to analyze the clinical and radiographic outcomes as well as the complications following semiconstrained reverse total shoulder arthroplasty for the treatment of nonunion of a surgical neck fracture of the proxi...

PURPOSE We used patient-reported outcome and risk of revision to compare hemiarthroplasty (HA) with total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) and stemmed hemiarthroplasty (SHA) with resurfacing hemiarthroplasty (RHA) in patients with glenohumeral osteoarthritis. PATIENTS AND METHODS We included all patients reported to the Danish Shoulder Arthroplasty Registry (DSR) between January 2006 and December ...

Shoulder replacement surgery has evolved dramatically since first attempted by P ean and Gluck and modernized by Neer. Interest in shoulder replacement surgery is growing globally and, in many countries, is the fastest growing market in joint arthroplasty surgery. In the coming year, over 57,000 replacements will be undertaken in the United States and over 4,000 in Australia. To a large extent,...

Shoulder arthroplasty represents one of the fastest growing orthopaedic procedures in the USA. In comparison to hemiarthroplasty, total shoulder arthroplasty has higher patient satisfaction and lower revision rates. Aseptic glenoid loosening remains a concern for longevity of total shoulder arthroplasties. Cement fixation on the glenoid side represents the primary and only mode of fixation in t...
