Abstract
Shoulder arthroplasty has significantly gained popularity in orthopedic surgery, driven by progress in prosthesis design and surgical techniques. This study explored the epidemiology of shoulder arthroplasty, analyzing healthcare data from 2012 to 2022 for primary osteoarthritis of the shoulder. The data included patient demographics and types of surgical procedures. Data analysis indicates a higher utilization rate of reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (RTSA; n = 41,251) over total- (TSA; n = 18,679) and hemiarthroplasty (HSA; n = 12,827) for primary shoulder osteoarthritis. Overall, a significant increase in RTSA procedures from n = 2237 (2012) to n = 5415 (2022) was observed, representing more than a two-fold increase of 121.1%. The relative proportion of RTSA among all types of shoulder arthroplasty increased from 39% (2012) to 68.6% (2022), while HSA decreased and TSA essentially remained constant. Age analysis identified the following peaks: RTSA, 77 ± 7 y; HSA, 68 ± 12 y; and TSA, 67 ± 10 y. Among the over 60s, significantly more women were treated with any type of prosthesis, whereas in young patients (45 to 59 y), more men received HSA or TSA. Our study confirms that RTSA has become the preferred choice for elderly patients in Germany, reflecting the prevailing preference despite varying patient ages and conditions, with a noted difference in sex in treatment prevalence.

Abstract
Traditional practice favors total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) for the treatment of primary glenohumeral osteoarthritis (PGHO) with an intact rotator cuff; however, the indications for reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) have expanded to include PGHO. The purpose of this systematic review is to compare the mean differences in the range of motion and patient-reported outcomes between the TSA and RSA with an intact rotator cuff and to analyze the subgroup of the Walch type B2 glenoid. This IRB-exempt, PROSPERO-registered systematic review strictly followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis Protocols (PRISMA-P) guidelines. A literature search of five databases revealed 493 articles, of which 10 were included for quantitative synthesis. Level III evidence studies with the diagnosis of PGHO and ≥2 years of follow-up were included. Studies without preoperative and postoperative data were excluded. The Newcastle-Ottawa scale was used to evaluate the methodologic quality of the included studies. Preoperative and postoperative range of motion and patient-reported outcomes were collected. The random-effects model was employed, and p < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. There were a total of 544 and 329 studies in the TSA group and RSA group, respectively. The mean age in the TSA group and RSA groups were 65.36 ± 7.06 and 73.12 ± 2.40, respectively (p = 0.008). The percentages of males in the TSA and RSA groups were 73.2% and 51.1%, respectively (p = 0.02). The mean differences in forward elevation, external rotation in adduction, internal rotation scale, visual analog scale (VAS), American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) score, and Single Assessment Numeric Evaluation (SANE) scores were improved for both groups with no significant differences between the two. There were 9.6 times the revisions in the TSA group (8.8% vs. 0.91%; p = 0.014) and 1.5 times the complications in the TSA group (3.68% vs. 2.4%; p = 0.0096). Two hundred and forty-two glenoids were identified as Walch type B2 (126 in the TSA group and 116 in the RSA group). The mean ages in the B2 subgroup were 68.20 ± 3.25 and 73.03 ± 1.49 for the TSA and RSA, respectively (p = 0.25). The percentages of males in the B2 subgroup were 74.6% and 46.5% for the TSA and RSA groups, respectively (p = 0.0003). The ASES, SANE, forward elevation, and external rotation in the adduction results were descriptively summarized for this subgroup, with average mean differences of 49.0 and 51.2, 45.7 and 66.1, 77.6° and 58.6°, and 38.6° and 34.1° for the TSA and RSA groups, respectively. In the setting of primary glenohumeral osteoarthritis with an intact rotator cuff, the RSA has a similar range of motion and clinical outcomes but lower complication and revision rates as compared to the TSA. This may hold true in the setting of the B2 glenoid, although a high-powered study on this subgroup is required. Anatomic shoulder arthroplasty maintains an important role in select patients. Further studies are required to better elucidate the role of glenoid bone loss and posterior humeral head subluxation with regard to implant choice.

Abstract
Background Citation analyses have been used to understand the impact that a group of publications has on its field. As the techniques and indications of reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (RTSA) continue to expand, it is important to identify articles that can orient readers to the history, evolution, and current status of the body of RTSA literature. The purpose of this study was to identify and analyze the 50 most-cited articles related to RTSA. Methods Various Boolean queries were searched on the Clarivate Analytics Web of Science. Information collected included author name, publication year, country of origin, journal name, article type, total number of citations, and level of evidence. Results Top 50 most-cited articles amassed a total of 10,521 citations. The most-cited article was cited a total of 766 times. The most common study designs were case series (28) and cohort studies (9). Authors from the United States (24) contributed the most to included papers, followed by France (19) and Switzerland (8). Discussion The most-cited articles on RTSA are expert opinions, case studies, and cohort studies published by American authors. As RTSA continues to grow over the next decade, studies with higher levels-of-evidence may overtake articles included in this analysis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Primary reverse shoulder arthroplasty (rTSA) is an effective treatment option for reducing pain and improving function for patients with rotator cuff tear arthropathy, irreparable rotator cuff tears, glenoid deformity, and other challenging clinical scenarios, including fracture sequelae and revision shoulder arthroplasty. There has been a wide range of reported outcomes and postoperative complication rates reported in the literature. The purpose of this systematic review and meta-analysis is to provide an updated review of the clinical outcomes and complication rates following primary rTSA. METHODS A systematic review and meta-analysis was performed to evaluate outcomes and complications following primary rTSA according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. Demographics, range of motion, patient-reported outcome measures (American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons Standardized Shoulder Assessment Form [ASES] and Constant scores), number of complications, and revisions were extracted, recorded, and analyzed from the included articles. RESULTS Of the 1415 studies screened, 52 studies met the inclusion criteria comprising a total of 5824 shoulders. The mean age at the time of surgery was 72 years (range: 34-93), and the mean follow-up was 3.9 years (range: 2-16). Patients demonstrated a mean improvement of 56° in active flexion, 50° in active abduction, and 14° in active external rotation. Regarding functional outcome scores, rTSA patients demonstrated a mean clinically significant improvement of 37 in Constant score (minimal clinically important difference [MCID] = 5.7) and ASES score (42.0; MCID = 13.6). The overall complication rate for rTSA was 9.4% and revision rate of 2.6%. Complications were further subdivided into major medical complications (0.07%), shoulder- or surgical-related complications (5.3%), and infections (1.2%). The most frequently reported shoulder- or surgical-related complications were scapular notching (14.4%), periprosthetic fracture (0.8%), glenoid loosening (0.7%), and prosthetic dislocation (0.7%). DISCUSSION Primary rTSA is a safe and reliable procedure with low complication, revision, infection, and scapular notching rates. Additionally, patients demonstrated clinically significant improvements in both range of motion and clinical outcome scores.

Abstract
Background Shoulder osteoarthritis (OA) with eccentric (B) glenoids has generally been associated with poor patient-reported outcomes and increased complications. The purpose of this study was to outline all the described treatment options and their outcomes and complications in order to better guide treatment. Methods This systematic review was performed according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic review and Meta-analysis guidelines. Searches were performed up to December 19, 2019, using Medline, EMBASE, Scopus, and Cochrane databases. Inclusion criteria included studies for glenohumeral OA reporting posterior humeral head subluxation and/or posterior glenoid erosion. Studies were excluded if they were review papers, abstracts, or conference papers; had heterogeneity of included Walch types; or were not written in English. Results Twenty-one studies met inclusion criteria. The mean follow-up duration was 47.5 months (range, 14-300), and the mean patient age 62 years (38-88). Six different discernible techniques were identified: asymmetric reaming with onlay glenoid (AROG) in 267 shoulders, posterior glenoid bone grafting (PGBG) with onlay glenoid in 79 shoulders, augmented glenoid (AG) in 160 shoulders, reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) with or without bone grafting in 118 shoulders, hemiarthroplasty with concentric reaming (HACR) in 57 shoulders, and humeral head arthroplasty with inlay glenoid (HAIG) in 36 shoulders. All techniques reported improved patient outcomes and range of motion. Short-term (<5 years) studies reported glenoid loosening leading to revisions in 3% of AROG, 2.7% PGBG, 0.8% AG, 1.4% RSA, and 0% HAIG shoulders. HACR had a high revision rate (12.3%) due to persistent pain and stiffness. Midterm (>5 years) studies demonstrated increased rates of glenoid loosening with AROG (14.5%), PGBG (21% loose, 23.8% "at risk"), and AG (18.9% "at risk"), as well as increased rates of subluxation or revision due to instability. HAIG did not demonstrate loosening, subluxation, or revision at 55.2 months. Conclusion Various techniques exist to manage complex primary glenohumeral OA with posterior subluxation and posterior glenoid erosion. Glenoid component survival is a concern with ASOG, PGBG, and AG. HACR has the highest early revision rate. RSA offers promising short-term and midterm results likely due to the advantage of more secure fixation as well as a constrained design to prevent posterior subluxation. HAIG has the lowest complication and revision rates although further long-term studies are needed.

Survivorship of Reverse Shoulder Arthroplasty According to Indication, Age and Gender. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11102677. [PMID: 35628804 PMCID: PMC9145012 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11102677] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/20/2022] [Revised: 04/30/2022] [Accepted: 05/03/2022] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Background. The indications for reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) have been widely expanded, but only a few studies report the long-term survival of these implants. Our objective was to report the long-term survivorship of a large series of RSAs implanted for different etiologies. Methods. A retrospective multicenter study including all the RSAs was performed in six shoulder-specialized centers with at least 2 years of follow up. We reviewed 1611 RSAs, operated between 1993 and 2010, including 497 cuff-tear arthropathies (CTA), 239 revision RSAs, 188 massive cuff tears (MCT), 185 fracture sequelae (FS), 183 failed previous cuff repairs (FCR), and 142 primary osteoarthritis (POA). The mean follow-up was 5.6 ± 3.9 years (range 2−20). Results. Overall, 266 RSAs (16.5%) had at least one complication leading to 64 reoperations (4.0%) and 110 revision surgeries (6.8%). The most frequent complications were infection (3.8%), instability (2.8%), and humerus-related complications (2.8%). At 10 years, the survival without revision surgery was 91.0% in primary RSAs and 80.9% in revision RSAs for failed arthroplasty (p < 0.001). In the primary RSA group, MCT and FCR led to 10-year survivals for over 95% but fracture sequelae and tumors had the lowest 10-year survivals (83.9% and 53.1%). Younger patients had a lower 10-year survival. In revision RSAs, male patients had a significantly lower survival than females (72.3% vs. 84.5% at 10 years, p = 0.020). Discussion. Primary RSA for cuff-deficient shoulders or POA leads to a high 10-year survival, but revision RSA or primary RSA for FS and tumors are at high-risk for revision. Surgeons should be aware of high rates of complications and lower survival rates of RSA in younger patients, in males, and in RSAs for revision surgery.

Abstract
PURPOSE We aimed to compare the outcomes and complications of anatomical shoulder arthroplasty (aTSA) and reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (rTSA) for primary glenohumeral osteoarthritis with intact cuff tissue. MATERIALS AND METHODS The MEDLINE, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases were systematically searched for studies published before March 2, 2021 using the PRISMA guidelines. Studies were included if they directly compared aTSA and rTSA for treating primary glenohumeral arthritis. A meta-analysis was performed using six studies that compared radiologic outcomes, functional scores, and range of motion (ROM). All the data were pooled using a random-effects model. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated as dichotomous data, while continuous data were analyzed using mean differences with 95% CIs. RESULTS Two independent researchers reviewed 1,061 studies. Six studies met the inclusion criteria. The range of motion, especially external rotation, was better for aTSA than for rTSA (MD = - 10.28, 95% CI: - 16.69 to - 3.88, P = 0.002). Functional scores showed no difference between aTSA and rTSA. Glenoid loosening (OR = 0.17, 95% CI: 0.06-0.50, P = 0.001) was more common with aTSA, and scapula notching (OR = 10.63, 95% CI: 1.73-65.27, P = 0.01) with rTSA. In the mid-term follow-up, the overall revision rate showed no difference between aTSA and rTSA, with a pooled OR of 0.33 (95% CI: 0.07-1.57, P = 0.16). CONCLUSION A better ROM was achieved after aTSA than after rTSA. There was no difference in the revision rate at mid-term follow-up between aTSA and rTSA. Glenoid loosening was more common with aTSA, and scapula notching with rTSA. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level IV, Meta-analysis.

[PMID: 34293419 DOI: 10.1016/j.jse.2021.06.010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/10/2021] [Revised: 06/08/2021] [Accepted: 06/12/2021] [Indexed: 02/01/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Although reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) has shown satisfactory outcomes in rotator cuff-deficient shoulders, its performance in shoulders with an intact rotator cuff has not been fully elucidated. Shoulder osteoarthritis can present with alterations in glenoid morphology, which have contributed to inconsistent outcomes in anatomic shoulder replacement. The glenoid component is responsible for a predominance of these arthroplasty complications. Given these glenoid-related difficulties, RSA may provide a more favorable option. We aimed to summarize the current literature on rotator cuff intact osteoarthritis treated with primary RSA and to determine whether morphologic changes in the glenoid led to inferior outcomes. METHODS A literature search was performed using an inclusion criterion of primary RSA for osteoarthritis with an intact rotator cuff. The Modified Coleman Methodology Score was calculated to analyze reporting quality. Following appropriate exclusions, of the 1002 studies identified by the databases, 13 were selected. RESULTS Postoperative improvement in weighted means for Constant scores reached statistical significance (P = .02). The mean rate of major complications was 3.8%. A subset of 8 studies was created that detailed the following descriptions of altered glenoid morphology: "static posterior instability," "severe posterior subluxation," "posterior glenoid wear >20°," "significant posterior glenoid bone loss," "biconcave glenoid," "B2 glenoid," and "B/C glenoid." Within this subset, the mean complication rate was 4.7%, with 4 of the 7 studies having a rate ≤ 3%, and improvements in the Constant score (P = .002) and external rotation (P = .02) reached statistical significance. DISCUSSION RSA as treatment for osteoarthritis with an intact rotator cuff provides optimal outcomes with low complication rates across a short term of follow up. Preoperative considerations for using reverse arthroplasty in the treatment of osteoarthritis with an intact rotator cuff include glenoid retroversion, posterior humeral subluxation, and glenoid bone loss. The attributes of reverse arthroplasty that contribute to favorable outcomes in arthritic shoulders include its semiconstrained design and robust glenoid fixation. Soft-tissue imbalances as a consequence of pathologic glenoid morphology and chronic humeral subluxation can be mitigated with the RSA semiconstrained design. Glenoid bone loss can be effectively managed with RSA's robust glenoid fixation, with and without the use of bone graft. The capability to lateralize the joint center of rotation may be valuable when faced with a medialized glenoid wear pattern. The current findings suggest that reverse arthroplasty can achieve highly favorable outcomes for glenohumeral osteoarthritis with an intact rotator cuff.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Several modifications to the original Grammont reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) design have been proposed to prevent distinctive issues, such as both glenoid and humeral lateralization. The aim of this systematic review was to determine rates of problems, complications, reoperations, and revisions after onlay lateralized humeral stem RSA, hypothesizing that these are design related. METHODS This systematic review was performed in accordance with the PRISMA statement guidelines. A literature search was conducted (1 January 2000 to 14 April 2020) using PubMed, Cochrane Reviews, Scopus, and Google Scholar, employing several combinations of keywords: "reverse shoulder arthroplasty," "reverse shoulder prosthesis," "inverse shoulder arthroplasty," "inverse shoulder prosthesis," "problems," "complications," "results," "outcomes," "reoperation," and "revision." RESULTS Thirty-one studies with 4893 RSA met inclusion criteria. The 892 postoperative problems and 296 postoperative complications represented overall problem and complication rates of 22.7% and 7.5%, respectively. Forty-one reoperations and 63 revisions resulted, with overall reoperation and revision rates of 1.7% and 2.6%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Problem, complication, and reintervention rates proved acceptable when implanting a high humeral lateralization stem RSA. The most frequent problem was scapular notching (12.6%), and the most common postoperative complication was scapular stress fracture (1.8%). An overall humeral complication rate of 1.9% was identified, whereas no humeral fractures or stem loosening were reported with short stems. Infections (1.3%) were the most common reason for component revision, followed by instability (0.8%). LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Systematic review IV.

Abstract
Background Since the introduction of stemless anatomic shoulder arthroplasty, many studies have been published on anatomic implants. For reverse stemless implants, however, there are only a few clinical follow-up studies available. The current clinical case series aims to present clinical and radiological outcomes of a new stemless reverse prosthesis system (Lima Shoulder Modular Replacement stemless). Methods We prospectively evaluated the outcome of 56 stemless total shoulder arthroplasties in 56 patients with a mean age of 61.2 years (46-76 years) at the time of implantation at a minimum follow-up of 24 months (range 24-41 months). All patients were physically and radiologically examined. Clinical outcomes were evaluated by using the Constant-Murley Score and the Subjective Shoulder Value. Results The mean Subjective Shoulder Value was 84.27% at the latest follow-up. Significant improvements from preoperative to latest follow-up were documented for Constant-Murley Score (34.9 pts to 74.43 pts, P < .001) and active range of motion (abduction 72° to 130°, flexion 36° to 138°, and external rotation 16°to 28°). There was one complete loosening of the humeral component without reoperation. Radiolucency lines were observed in anteroposterior or axial radiographs at the humeral component in 23% of the cases, most of them in anteroposterior view at the calcar region. Radiolucency line findings did not affect clinical outcomes. Major complications or revisions did not occur so far. Conclusion At short-term follow-up, stemless reverse shoulder systems show comparable clinical and radiological outcomes compared to stemmed reverse implants in the literature.

Abstract
Background Walch B2 glenoid morphology with glenohumeral osteoarthritis is a difficult degenerative pattern to manage for shoulder surgeons. Anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) in combination with eccentric reaming or bone grafting are the traditional methods of treatment. Newer approaches such as TSA with posteriorly augmented glenoid components and reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) may offer better stability for the posteriorly subluxated biconcave B2 wear pattern. The aim of this systematic review is to compare mid-term surgical and functional outcomes of Walch B2 glenoids without significant rotator cuff pathology treated with TSA and RSA. Methods The review was performed according to Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines by searching the MEDLINE (PubMed) and Embase (Elsevier) databases. Inclusion criteria were clinical studies that evaluated the outcomes and complications of TSA or RSA in the setting of B2 glenoid morphology without significant rotator cuff pathology. Data relevant to TSA and RSA surgical outcomes were extracted and compiled, and outcomes were compared. A meta-analysis of proportions of complication and revision rates among TSA and RSA groups was performed. Results Overall, 16 articles were included with 414 TSAs and 78 RSAs. The average follow-up duration was 54.1 ± 14.8 months for patients undergoing TSA and 44.8 ± 10.1 months for patients undergoing RSA. The TSA group was further subdivided based on the use of eccentric reaming (135 TSAs), an augmented glenoid component (84 TSAs), or bone grafting (11 TSAs) or was unspecified (184 TSAs). Overall, patients undergoing TSA and RSA demonstrated mean improvements of 50.1 ± 8.5° and 64.7 ± 5.2° in active flexion, 58.5 ± 10.3° and 68.9 ± not reported° in active abduction, and 31.3 ± 5.7° and 29.0 ± 10.2° in active external rotation, respectively. In regard to functional outcome scores, patients undergoing TSA and RSA showed mean Constant score improvements of 38.8 ± 5.3 and 46.6 ± 3.1 points and American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons score improvements of 48.2 ± 1.0 and 49.2 ± 25.3 points, respectively. Results of the meta-analysis with mid-term follow-up data demonstrated pooled complication rates of 9% (95% confidence interval [CI], 1%-22%) for TSA and 6% (95% CI, 0%-28%) for RSA and pooled revision rates of 2% (95% CI, 0%-8%) for TSA and 1% (95% CI, 0%-15%) for RSA. Conclusion In the setting of Walch B2 glenoid morphology, TSA with eccentric reaming or an augmented component yields comparable outcomes to RSA. Based on the patient's age, activity level, and expectations, both TSA and RSA can be considered a reasonable option to treat Walch B2 glenoid morphology.

Abstract
Background Several modifications to the original Grammont reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) design have been proposed to prevent distinctive issues, such as both glenoid and humeral lateralization. The aim of this systematic review was to determine rates of problems, complications, reoperations, and revisions after onlay lateralized humeral stem RSA, hypothesizing that these are design related. Methods This systematic review was performed in accordance with the PRISMA statement guidelines. A literature search was conducted (01.01.2000–14.04.2020) using PubMed, Cochrane Reviews, Scopus, and Google Scholar employing several combinations of keywords: “reverse shoulder arthroplasty,” “reverse shoulder prosthesis,” “inverse shoulder arthroplasty,” “inverse shoulder prosthesis,” “problems,” “complications,” “results,” “outcomes,” “reoperation,” “revision.” Results Thirty-one studies with 4893 RSA met inclusion criteria. The 892 postoperative problems and 296 postoperative complications represented overall problem and complication rates of 22.7% and 7.5%, respectively. Forty-one reoperations and 63 revisions resulted, with an overall reoperation rate of 1.7% and overall revision rate of 2.6%. Conclusions Problem, complication, and reintervention rates proved acceptable when implanting a high humeral lateralization stem in RSA. The most frequent problem was scapular notching (12.6%), and the most common postoperative complication was scapular stress fracture (1.8%). An overall humeral complication rate of 1.9% was identified, whereas short stems reported no humeral fractures or stem loosening. Infections (1.3%) proved to be the most common reason for component revision, and instability had a complication rate of 0.8%. Level of evidence Systematic review IV

Abstract
Hypothesis The reverse shoulder arthroplasty, as introduced by Grammont, has had many modifications over time. One of these modifications was reducing the neck-shaft angle (NSA) from 155 degrees to 135 degrees. Biomechanical studies indicated that lowering the NSA increases external rotation and reduces abduction and the incidence of scapular notching. The purpose of this study was to compare range of motion, functional outcome measures, and complications in patients undergoing reverse shoulder arthroplasty, depending on the NSA, through a systematic review and meta-analysis. Methods A literature search was conducted (articles published from January 1985 to January 2020) in the PubMed/MEDLINE, Embase, and CINAHL databases and the Cochrane library. All studies reporting outcomes after primary reverse shoulder arthroplasty for osteoarthritis and rotator cuff-related disease were included. Patients were divided into 2 groups: a medialized design (MD) with an NSA of 150-155 degrees and a lateralized design (LD) with an NSA of less than 150 degrees. Pooled effects were calculated in the form of mean differences and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Risk of bias was assessed using the Risk Of Bias In Non-Randomized Studies - of Interventions tool for non-Randomized Controlled Trials and the Risk Of Bias 2 tool for Randomized Controlled Trials. Results A total of 21 studies and 3134 arthroplasties were included: 1366 with an MD and 1678 with an LD. The mean age was 73.0 years (MD 74.0 and LD 72.5). A direct comparative meta-analysis was not feasible, and therefore, all data were compared using the minimal clinically important difference. The MD group demonstrated a larger improvement in abduction (56.76°, 95% CI 37.03-76.49) than the LD group (48.52°, 95% CI 28.27-68.78), however the LD group demonstrated a larger improvement in external rotation with the arm at the side (MD: 7.69°, 95% CI 0.01-15.37; LD: 16.14° 95% CI 7.18-25.09). When looking at the postoperative range of motion, the MD group had more abduction than the LD group (MD: 136.28°, 95% CI 127.36-145.20; LD: 127.77° 95% CI 117.02-138.52). Both designs had a comparable improvement in the Constant Murley score (MD 42.04 points, LD 41.14 points). Lowering the NSA was accompanied by a decrease in dislocation rate (MD: 4.6%; LD: 1.4%; P value .037) and notching rate (MD: 40.3%; LD: 17.3%; P value <.0001). Conclusion In our analysis, lowering the NSA decreases the amount of abduction but increases the amount of external rotation. This change in range of motion is accompanied by less scapular notching and dislocations. There is no clear impact on functional outcome measures.

Abstract
Background Globally, reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) has moved away from the Grammont design to modern prosthesis designs. The purpose of this study was to provide a focused, updated systematic review for each of the most common complications of RSA by limiting each search to publications after 2010. In this part II, the following were examined: (1) instability, (2) humerus/glenoid fracture, (3) acromial/scapular spine fractures (AF/SSF), and (4) problems/miscellaneous. Methods Four separate PubMed database searches were performed following Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. Overall, 137 studies for instability, 94 for humerus/glenoid fracture, 120 for AF/SSF, and 74 for problems/miscellaneous were included in each review, respectively. Univariate analysis was performed with chi-square and Fisher exact tests. Results The Grammont design had a higher instability rate vs. all other designs combined (4.0%, 1.3%; P < .001), and the onlay humerus design had a lower rate than the lateralized glenoid design (0.9%, 2.0%; P = .02). The rate for intraoperative humerus fracture was 1.8%; intraoperative glenoid fracture, 0.3%; postoperative humerus fracture, 1.2%; and postoperative glenoid fracture, 0.1%. The rate of AF/SSF was 2.6% (371/14235). The rate for complex regional pain syndrome was 0.4%; deltoid injury, 0.1%; hematoma, 0.3%; and heterotopic ossification, 0.8%. Conclusions Focused systematic reviews of recent literature with a large volume of shoulders demonstrate that using non-Grammont modern prosthesis designs, complications including instability, intraoperative humerus and glenoid fractures, and hematoma are significantly reduced compared with previous studies. As the indications continue to expand for RSA, it is imperative to accurately track the rate and types of complications in order to justify its cost and increased indications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Wedge-shaped porous metal augments were used to address bone deficiency in shoulder arthroplasty as part of a hybrid combination of high-density polyethylene, polymethyl methacrylate bone cement, and porous metal implant. This article presents an ongoing review of the use of the generically designed augments in the shoulder to address glenoid retroversion as part of anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty (aTSA). MATERIALS Seventy-five shoulders in 66 patients (23 women and 43 men, aged 42-85 years) with Walch grade B2 or C glenoids underwent porous metal glenoid augment (PMGA) insertion as part of aTSA. Patients underwent preoperative 3-dimensional (3D) templating; based on that planning, patients received either a 15° or 30° PMGA wedge (secured by screws to the native glenoid) to correct excessive glenoid retroversion before a standard glenoid component was implanted using bone cement. Neither patient-specific guides nor navigation were used. Intraoperative glenoid alignment was assessed using a reusable guide that referenced the anterior scapular neck. Patients were prospectively assessed using shoulder functional assessments (Oxford Shoulder Score [OSS], American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons Standardized Shoulder Assessment Form [ASES], visual analog scale [VAS] pain scores, and forward elevation [FE]) preoperatively; at 3, 6, and 12 months postoperation; and yearly thereafter, with similar radiologic surveillance. RESULTS Of the total consecutive series, 49 shoulders had a follow-up of greater than 24 months, with a median follow-up of 48 months (range: 24-87 months). For this cohort, median outcome scores improved for OSS (21 to 44), ASES (24 to 92), VAS (7 to 0), and FE (90° to 140°) from preoperative outcomes to the most recent review, respectively. Four patients died, but no others were lost to follow-up. Apart from 1 infection at 18 months postoperatively and 1 minor peg perforation, there were no complications, hardware failures, implant displacements, significant lucency, or posterior resubluxations. Radiographs showed good incorporation of the wedge augment, with correction of glenoid retroversion from median 22° (13° to 46°) to 4° (17° to anteversion 16°). All but 4 glenoids were corrected to within the target range (less than 10° retroversion), and only 2 glenoid components were implanted outside 15° of neutral glenoid version. CONCLUSIONS The porous metal wedge-shaped augments effectively addressed posterior glenoid deficiency as part of aTSA for rotator cuff intact osteoarthritis, producing satisfactory clinical outcomes with no signs of impending future failure.

Abstract
PURPOSE The study objective was to compare the clinical results of reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (rTSA) and anatomical total shoulder arthroplasty (aTSA) in patients with osteoarthritis and intact rotator cuff. We hypothesised that the clinical results using rTSA would be comparable with those obtained with aTSA in this group of patients. METHODS The study included 51 patients with shoulder osteoarthritis and intact rotator cuff who underwent rTSA or aTSA. The range of motion, Constant-Murley score and strength in external rotation were recorded pre-operatively and at the two year follow-up. Subjective post-operative results were measured using the subjective shoulder value (SSV) score and a satisfaction questionnaire. RESULTS The post-operative improvement was significant in both groups, subjectively and concerning all parameters of the Constant-Murley score. Post-operatively, no significant difference was noted between the two groups for active anterior elevation (AAE), active external rotation (ER), internal rotation (IR) or Constant-Murley score (67 ± 12 in the rTSA group vs 71 ± 11 in the aTSA group). An exception was the Constant-Murley range of motion sub-score, which was better in the aTSA group (p = 0.028). No significant complications necessitating revision surgery were encountered. DISCUSSION Our findings are consistent with previous studies showing good results of rTSA with shoulder osteoarthritis and intact rotator cuff with a good restoration of the IR, similar to that obtained with aTSA. CONCLUSION The rTSA is a valid option for shoulder osteoarthritis and intact rotator cuff in older adult patients.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to systematically assess the surgical techniques and outcomes related to the management of Walch B2 glenoids. PubMed, Medline, and Embase were searched from inception to July 2018. Overall, 24 studies (787 B2 glenoids) were identified. Revision-free survivorship was highest for reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (98.6%) and anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty with asymmetric reaming and a non-augmented glenoid implant (95.6%). Walch B2 glenoids are most commonly managed by asymmetric reaming in the context of anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty, and by the ream-and-run technique in hemiarthroplasty. The optimal treatment strategy remains elusive due to a lack of high-quality, comparative studies with long-term surveillance. [Orthopedics. 2020;43(4):e191-e201.].
