Rutledge JC, Dey Hazra RO, Geissbuhler AR, Yamaura K, Dey Hazra ME, Hanson JA, Rupp MC, Millett PJ. Does glenoid version and its correction affect outcomes in anatomic shoulder arthroplasty? A systematic review. J Shoulder Elbow Surg 2024; 33:e384-e399. [PMID: 38122888 DOI: 10.1016/j.jse.2023.10.031] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/02/2023] [Revised: 10/20/2023] [Accepted: 10/30/2023] [Indexed: 12/23/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Correction of glenoid retroversion is commonly performed in anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) to increase component contact area and decrease eccentric loading of the glenoid component. Despite demonstrated biomechanical advantages, limited information exists on the clinical benefit of correcting glenoid retroversion. The purpose of this systematic review is to critically evaluate the existing literature on the effect of preoperative and postoperative glenoid retroversion on clinical functional and radiologic outcomes in patients who underwent anatomic TSA. METHODS A systematic literature review was performed according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses using PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library evaluating the impact of glenoid retroversion on clinical and radiologic outcomes of TSA. English-language studies of level I through IV evidence were included. Blinded reviewers conducted multiple screens and methodological quality was appraised using the Modified Coleman Methodology Score. RESULTS Sixteen studies, including 3 level III and 13 level IV studies (1211 shoulders), satisfied all inclusion criteria. To address glenoid retroversion, 9 studies used corrective reaming techniques, and 4 studies used posteriorly augmented glenoids. Two studies used noncorrective reaming techniques. Mean preoperative retroversion ranged from 12.7° to 24° across studies. Eleven studies analyzed the effect of glenoid retroversion on clinical outcomes, including patient-reported outcome scores (PROs), range of motion (ROM), or clinical failure or revision rates. Most studies (8 of 11) did not report any significant association of pre- or postoperative glenoid retroversion on any clinical outcome. Of the 3 studies that reported significant effects, 1 study reported a negative association between preoperative glenoid retroversion and PROs, 1 study reported inferior postoperative abduction in patients with postoperative glenoid retroversion greater than 15°, and 1 study found an increased clinical failure rate in patients with higher postoperative retroversion. Ten studies reported radiographic results (medial calcar resorption, Central Peg Lucency [CPL] grade, Lazarus lucency grade) at follow-up. Only 1 study reported a significant effect of pre- and postoperative retroversion greater than 15° on CPL grade. CONCLUSION There is currently insufficient evidence that pre- or postoperative glenoid version influences postoperative outcomes independent of other morphologic factors such as joint line medialization. Given that noncorrective reaming demonstrated favorable postoperative outcomes, and postoperative glenoid version was not significantly and consistently found to impact outcomes, there is inconclusive evidence that correcting glenoid retroversion is routinely required.

J Shoulder Elbow Surg 2024; 33:S111-S121. [PMID: 37777046 DOI: 10.1016/j.jse.2023.08.025] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/01/2023] [Revised: 08/07/2023] [Accepted: 08/27/2023] [Indexed: 10/02/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Shoulder radiographs are used for evaluation and the planning of treatment of various pathologies. Making a diagnosis of these pathologies on plain radiographs occurs by recognizing the relationship of the humeral head on the registry of the glenoid. Quantification of these changes in registry does not currently exist. We hypothesize that a geometric relationship of the humeral head and the glenoid exists that is defined on an anteroposterior Grashey view radiograph by the relationship of the best-fit circle of the humeral head relative to the best-fit circle of the glenoid such that relative measurements will define the normal shoulder and the pathologic shoulder. METHODS One hundred fifty-six shoulders were included: 53 normal shoulders, 51 with primary glenohumeral osteoarthritis (GHOA), and 52 with cuff tear arthropathy (CTA). Humeral head best-fit circle was used to define the circle of the humeral head (cHH). A glenoid best-fit circle (cG) was defined by the following rules: (1) best fit of the glenoid articular surface and (2) was limited by the acromion such that either (a) it reaches maximal interaction with the inferior surface of the acromion or (b) the perimeter of the circle is at the lateralmost point of the acromion. The relationship between cHH and cG is defined by measurement of cHH in horizontal and vertical planes relative to the glenoid circle reference. The horizontal displacement angle (HDA) measures the horizontal position of cHH relative to cG, representing the degree of medialization toward the glenoid. The vertical displacement angle (VDA) measures the vertical position of cHH relative to cG, representing the degree of superiorization toward the acromion. Angles were compared by diagnosis and sex. RESULTS The mean HDA was 61.0° (95% confidence interval [CI] 60.3°-61.7°) in normal shoulders, 79.9° (95% CI 76.9°-82.9°) in GHOA, and 63.4° (95% CI 61.7°-65.1°) in CTA (P < .001). The mean VDA was 43.1° (95% CI 42.2°-44.0°) in normal shoulders, 40.9° (95% CI 39.9°-42.0°) in GHOA, and 59.7° (95% CI 57.6°-61.7°) in CTA (P < .001). Interobserver reliability was 0.991 (95% CI 0.94-1.0) and intraobserver reliability was 0.998 (95% CI 0.99-1.0). The geometric relationship of cHH to the glenoid circle reference was plotted for each group. CONCLUSION A geometric relationship exists of the humeral head in reference to the glenoid circle. Together, the HDA and the VDA distinguish between a normal shoulder and those with GHOA or CTA. This suggests that this novel methodology may provide a preoperative planning tool that is easily accessible.

Total shoulder arthroplasty for glenohumeral arthritis associated with posterior glenoid bone loss: midterm results of an all-polyethylene, posteriorly augmented, stepped glenoid component. J Shoulder Elbow Surg 2024:S1058-2746(24)00317-3. [PMID: 38719072 DOI: 10.1016/j.jse.2024.03.038] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/02/2023] [Revised: 03/03/2024] [Accepted: 03/11/2024] [Indexed: 07/25/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study is to report the minimum 5-year clinical and radiographic outcomes of patients undergoing anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty (aTSA) with a posteriorly augmented glenoid component. METHODS Thirty-five shoulders with minimum 5-year follow-up underwent aTSA using a posteriorly augmented glenoid component for the treatment of glenohumeral osteoarthritis with posterior glenoid bone loss. Clinical outcomes included range of motion, visual analog scale (VAS) for pain, and patient-reported outcomes scores. Radiographs and computed tomography scans were obtained to assess glenoid morphology, retroversion, and central peg osseous integration via Wirth score, Lazarus scores, and Yian scores. Postoperative outcomes were measured at minimum 2- and 5-year follow-up. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was calculated. RESULTS Two patients experienced prosthetic instability requiring revision, leaving 33 shoulders with an average follow-up of 6.6 years. Average preoperative glenoid retroversion was 21.6°. A significant improvement in pain, range of motion, and patient-reported outcomes score was noted at minimum 2- and 5-year follow-up. In addition, VAS pain, American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons, and Quick Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand scores improved between minimum 2- and 5-year follow-up. The average Lazarus and Yian scores at final follow-up were 0.73 and 2.6, respectively. There was an increase in Lazarus score and a decrease in Wirth score between 2- and 5-year follow-up. A significant correlation was identified between VAS pain scores and both Lazarus and Wirth scores. Survivorship free from revision was 92% at 8.8 years postoperatively. CONCLUSIONS Midterm results of aTSA with a posteriorly augmented, stepped glenoid component demonstrate sustained improvements in clinical outcomes with low rates of radiographic loosening. Continued improvement in pain and function, as well as a minor progression of radiographic osteolysis, may be expected between 2- and 5-year follow-up. In addition, the severity of radiographic loosening correlates with subjective pain levels.

Hill JR, Olson JJ, Aleem AW, Keener JD, Zmistowski BM. Three-dimensional analysis of biplanar glenoid deformities: what are they and can they be virtually reconstructed with anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty implants? J Shoulder Elbow Surg 2024:S1058-2746(24)00140-X. [PMID: 38423250 DOI: 10.1016/j.jse.2024.01.026] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/18/2023] [Revised: 12/26/2023] [Accepted: 01/01/2024] [Indexed: 03/02/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Descriptions of glenoid deformities in glenohumeral osteoarthritis (GHOA) have focused on the axial plane. Less is known regarding arthritic glenoids with higher amounts of superior inclination and little evidence exists to guide management of inclination or combined version-inclination deformity when performing anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty (aTSA). We hypothesized that biplanar deformities (BD) would be present in a higher proportion of GHOA patients than previously appreciated, and these deformities would be difficult to adequately reconstruct with contemporary aTSA implants. METHODS A retrospective query was performed of GHOA patients indicated for TSA 2012-2017 with a computed tomography (CT) scan within three months of surgery. Images were uploaded to three-dimensional (3D) software for automated measurements. Glenoids with superior inclination ≥10°, and retroversion ≥20° were considered to have BD. Walch classification was determined, and C-type glenoids were excluded. Rotator-cuff muscle cross-sectional area (CSA) was measured and fatty infiltration was graded. Glenoids with BD were virtually planned for aTSA with correction to neutral inclination and version, then with 5° superior inclination and 10° retroversion. RESULTS Two-hundred and sixty-eight shoulders in 250 patients were included; average age was 65 years, 67% male. There were no differences in inclination between Walch types (P = .25). Twenty-nine shoulders with BD were identified (11%). These deformities were not associated with age (P = .47) or gender (P = .50) but were skewed towards Walch B-type, specifically B2 (P = .03). Acromial index and posterior humeral head subluxation were higher in BD patients (P = .04, P < .001, respectively). Biplanar deformities had similar cuff CSA compared to those without but were less frequently associated with fatty infiltration of the subscapularis (P = .05). When correcting to neutral version and inclination, 41% BD could not be reconstructed. Of those that could, 94% required augmented implants. When correcting to 5° superior inclination and 10° retroversion, 10% could not be reconstructed. Of those that could, 58% required augmented implants. With partial correction, augment use was predicted by retroversion >26° (P = .009). Inclination did not predict augment use (P = .90). Final implant position commonly involved unseating in the posterosuperior quadrant and cancellous exposure in the anteroinferior quadrant. CONCLUSIONS This retrospective computed tomography (CT)-based study of 268 shoulders with GHOA found an 11% prevalence of BD. These deformities were commonly associated with Walch B2 wear patterns. Virtual aTSA planning showed a high failure rate (41%) when correcting to neutral version and inclination. Posteriorly augmented implants were frequently required, and often still involved unseating in the posterosuperior quadrant, increased cancellous exposure in the anteroinferior quadrant, and vault perforation.

A comparison of revision rates for stemmed and stemless primary anatomic shoulder arthroplasty with all-polyethylene glenoid components: analysis from the Australian Orthopaedic Association National Joint Replacement Registry. J Shoulder Elbow Surg 2024; 33:281-290. [PMID: 37499786 DOI: 10.1016/j.jse.2023.06.025] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/20/2023] [Revised: 06/17/2023] [Accepted: 06/21/2023] [Indexed: 07/29/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND We compared the rate of all-cause revision of 2 classes of primary anatomic shoulder arthroplasty, stemmed (stTSA) and stemless (slTSA), undertaken with cemented all-polyethylene glenoid components. METHODS A large national arthroplasty registry identified 2 cohort groups for comparison, stTSA and l undertaken for all diagnoses between January 1, 2011, and December 31, 2021. A subanalysis from January 1, 2017, allowed capturing of additional patient demographics including American Society of Anesthesiologists score, body mass index, and glenoid morphology. The cumulative percent revision (CPR) was determined using Kaplan-Meier estimates of survivorship and hazard ratios (HR) from Cox proportional hazard models adjusted for age and gender. RESULTS Of the 7995 stTSA procedures, the CPR at 9 years was 5.6% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 5.0, 6.4), and for 3156 slTSA procedures, the CPR was 4.4% (95% CI: 3.6, 5.5). There was no significant difference in the rate of revision between the study groups (HR = 0.76 [95% CI: 0.51, 1.14], P = .189, adjusted for age, gender, humeral head size, humeral fixation, bearing surface, glenoid design, and mean surgeon volume [MSV]). There was an increased rate of revision for stTSA and slTSA undertaken with humeral head sizes <44 mm (stTSA <44 mm vs. 44-50 mm, HR = 1.56 [CI: 1.18, 2.08], P = .001; slTSA <44 mm vs. 44-50 mm, HR = 2.08 [CI: 1.32, 3.33], P = .001). MSV as a continuous predictor was not a revision risk to stTSA vs. slTSA, but categorically, a low MSV (<10 stTSA + slTSA cases per annum) was associated with a higher revision rate for stTSA (10-20 cases/yr vs. <10 cases/yr, HR = 0.72 [CI: 0.55, 0.95], P = .019) but was not in slTSA. Revision rates were increased for stTSA with non-crosslinked polyethylene (XLPE) glenoids vs. XPLE after 2 years (HR = 2.20 [CI: 1.57, 3.08], P < .001) but did not significantly differ for slTSA. Metal/XPLE (humeral/glenoid) bearing surface of stTSA rate of revision was not different from each combination of slTSA bearing surface. Instability/dislocation was a revision risk for slTSA vs. stTSA (HR = 1.93 [CI: 1.28, 2.91], P = .001), but from 2017, neither of American Society of Anesthesiologists score, body mass index, and glenoid morphology changed the rate of revision. CONCLUSIONS Revision rates of stTSA and slTSA did not significantly differ and were associated with humeral head size but not patient characteristics. Surgeon inexperience of anatomic shoulder arthroplasty and non-XLPE glenoids were risk factors for stTSA revision but not slTSA. The metal/XLPE stTSA rate of revision was not found to differ significantly from slTSA regardless of polyethylene or humeral head bearing type. Revision for instability/dislocation was more common for slTSA.

Abstract
Anatomical total shoulder arthroplasty in its modern form where it reproduces the normal shoulder has been utilized clinically for more than half a century. As the technology and the designs have changed to recreate the humeral and glenoid sides of the joint, the sophistication of design has resulted in the growing number of cases annually worldwide. This increase is due in part to the increasing number of indications that the prosthesis can treat with successful results. On the humeral side, there have been design changes to better reflect the proximal humeral anatomy, and humeral stems are increasingly placed safely without cement. Platform systems which allow conversion of a failed arthroplasty to a reverse configuration without stem extraction is another design change. Similarly, there has been increasing utilization of short stem and stemless humeral components. Extensive experience with shorter stem and stemless devices, however, has yet to demonstrate the purported advantages of these devices, as recent studies have demonstrated equivalent blood loss, fracture rates, operative times, and outcome scores. Easier revision with these shorter stems remains to be definitively established, with only one study comparing the ease of revision between stem types. On the glenoid side, hybrid cementless glenoids, inlay glenoids, cementless all-polyethylene glenoids, and augmented glenoids have all been investigated; however, the indications for these devices remain unclear. Lastly, innovative surgical approaches to implanting shoulder arthroplasty and the use of patient specific guides and computerized planning, while interesting concepts, still await validation before they are utilized on a widespread basis. While reverse shoulder arthroplasty has been increasingly used to reconstruct the arthritic shoulder, anatomic glenohumeral replacement maintains a significant role in the armamentarium of the shoulder surgeon.

Anatomic shoulder arthroplasty with high side reaming versus reverse shoulder arthroplasty for eccentric glenoid wear patterns with an intact rotator cuff: comparing early versus midterm outcomes with minimum 7 years of follow-up. J Shoulder Elbow Surg 2022; 32:972-979. [PMID: 36400340 DOI: 10.1016/j.jse.2022.10.017] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/01/2022] [Revised: 10/05/2022] [Accepted: 10/12/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Eccentric glenoid bone loss patterns (B- and C-type glenoid) pose a difficult challenge when performing shoulder arthroplasty. Anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty with preferential high-side reaming (ATSA + HSR) has been an accepted method to treat this problem. Reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) has become an alternative method to manage these cases with eccentric glenoid wear. The purpose of this study was to compare the early 2-year outcomes with the midterm outcomes for patients who underwent ATSA + HSR vs. RSA for eccentric glenoid wear patterns with an intact rotator cuff. MATERIALS AND METHODS From 2008 to 2014 there were 242 shoulder arthroplasties performed in the setting of eccentric glenoid wear patterns. Of that initial cohort 101 ATSA + HSR and 93 RSA had both 2-year and final follow-up with a minimum of 7 years from surgery. American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) scores, Simple Shoulder Test (SST), range of motion, patient satisfaction, and radiographs were evaluated for each cohort and contrasted at the 2-year follow-up point and last follow-up time point. RESULTS The average follow-up in the ATSA + HSR cohort was 8.3 years compared with 7.8 years in the RSA cohort. At the 2-year follow-up point, the ATSA + HSR group had better average ASES scores (85 vs. 80 [P < .001]), SST scores (10 vs. 9.6 [P < .001]), forward elevation (162° vs. 151° [P < .001]), external rotation (47° vs. 42° [P < .001]), and internal rotation (IR) (80% full IR vs. 55% full IR [P < .001]). At the 2-year follow-up, 95% of the ATSA + HSR cohort were satisfied compared with 93% in the RSA cohort. At the final follow-up, the RSA group had better average ASES scores (80 vs. 77 [P < .001]) and SST scores (9.4 vs. 8 [P < .001]) and a similar forward elevation (152° vs. 149° [P = .025]). The ATSA + HSR had better external rotation (45° vs. 41° [P < .001]) and IR (74% full IR vs. 54% full IR [P = .005]). Patient satisfaction at the final follow-up had decreased to 82% in the ATSA + HSR group, compared with 95% satisfied in the RSA group. Of the initial ATSA + HSR cohort, 8% of patients had undergone revision compared with 2% in the RSA cohort. CONCLUSION ATSA with HSR had better outcome scores and range of motion with a similar patient satisfaction rating to RSA at the 2-year point. Over time, the ATSA + HSR results deteriorated, and at the final midterm follow-up, the RSA group had more durable results with better outcome scores, a higher patient satisfaction rating, and a lower revision rate.

Abstract
Glenoid deformity has an important effect on outcomes and complication rates after shoulder arthroplasty for primary glenohumeral arthritis. The B2/B3 glenoid has particularly been associated with a poorer outcome with shoulder arthroplasty compared with other glenoid types. One of the primary challenges is striking a balance between deformity correction and joint line preservation. Recently, there has been a proliferation of both anatomic and reverse implants that may be used to address glenoid deformity. The purpose of this review was to provide an evidence-based approach for addressing glenoid deformity associated with primary glenohumeral arthritis.

Early clinical and radiographic outcomes of anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty with a biconvex posterior augmented glenoid for patients with posterior glenoid erosion: minimum 2-year follow-up. J Shoulder Elbow Surg 2022; 31:1729-1737. [PMID: 35151882 DOI: 10.1016/j.jse.2021.12.047] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/02/2021] [Revised: 12/19/2021] [Accepted: 12/25/2021] [Indexed: 02/01/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Glenoid bone loss in anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty (aTSA) remains a controversial and challenging clinical problem. Previous studies have shown high rates of glenoid loosening for aTSA in shoulders with retroversion, posterior bone loss, and posterior humeral head subluxation. This study is the first to present minimum 2-year follow-up data of an all-polyethylene, biconvex augmented anatomic glenoid component for correction of glenoid retroversion and posterior humeral head subluxation. METHODS This study is a multicenter, retrospective review of prospectively collected data on consecutive patients from 7 global clinical sites. All patients underwent aTSA using the biconvex posterior augmented glenoid (PAG). Inclusion criteria were preoperative computed tomographic (CT) scan, minimum 2 years since surgery, preoperative and minimum 2-year postoperative range of motion examination, and patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs). Glenoid classification, glenoid retroversion, and posterior humeral head subluxation were measured from preoperative CT and radiography and postoperative radiography. Statistical comparisons between pre- and postoperative values were performed with a paired t test. RESULTS Eighty-six of 110 consecutive patients during the study period (78% follow-up) met the inclusion criteria and were included in our analysis. Mean follow-up was 35 ± 10 months, with a mean age of 68 ± 8 years (range 48-85). Range of motion statistically improved in all planes from pre- to postoperation. Mean visual analog scale score improved from 5.2 preoperation to 0.7 postoperation, Single Assessment Numeric Evaluation score from 43.2 to 89.5, Constant score from 41.8 to 76.9, and American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons Standardized Shoulder Assessment Form score from 49.8 to 86.7 (all P < .0001). Mean glenoid retroversion improved from 19.3° to 7.4° (P < .0001). Posterior subluxation improved from 69.1% to 53.5% and posterior decentering improved from 5.8% to -3.0% (P < .0001). There was 1 patient with both a prosthetic joint infection and radiographic glenoid loosening that required revision. Seventy-nine of 86 patients had a Lazarus score of 0 (no radiolucency seen about peg or keel) at final follow-up. CONCLUSIONS This study shows that at minimum 2-year follow-up, a posterior-augmented all-polyethylene glenoid can correct glenoid retroversion and posterior humeral head subluxation. Clinically, there was significant improvement in both range of motion and PROMs.

Heifner JJ, Kumar AD, Wagner ER. Glenohumeral osteoarthritis with intact rotator cuff treated with reverse shoulder arthroplasty: a systematic review. J Shoulder Elbow Surg 2021; 30:2895-2903. [PMID: 34293419 DOI: 10.1016/j.jse.2021.06.010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.7] [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.
