Classification of postoperative acromial fractures following reverse shoulder arthroplasty.

TL;DR: Radiographs may be unreliable for detecting acromial fractures after reverse total shoulder arthroplasty, and CT scans are often needed to identify the fracture.
Journal ArticleDOI

Indications for reverse shoulder replacement: A systematic review

TL;DR: A systematic review of the literature to evaluate the functional outcome of each indication for the reverse shoulder replacement for patients with cuff deficiency.
Journal ArticleDOI

Scapular fractures after reverse shoulder arthroplasty: evaluation of risk factors and the reliability of a proposed classification.

TL;DR: Osteoporosis is a significant risk factor for scapular fractures after reverse shoulder arthroplasty and the current classification has only moderate reliability, suggesting that an alternative classification method is needed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Complications in reverse shoulder arthroplasty.

TL;DR: Careful attention to implant design and surgical technique, including implantation of components in the correct version and height, selection of the best glenosphere-humeral bearing match, avoidance of impingement, and adequate management of the soft tissues will hopefully translate in a decreasing number of complications in the future.
Journal ArticleDOI

Complication rates comparing primary with revision reverse total shoulder arthroplasty.

TL;DR: Revision RTSA has a significantly higher rate of complications than primary RTSA, and patients with minor complications are significantly more likely to require transfusions.

Displaced proximal humeral fractures. I. Classification and evaluation.

TL;DR: In this article, a new classification was made of these injuries based on roentgenographic appearance and anatomical lesions in 300 displaced fractures and fracture-dislocations of the proximal end of the humerus.
Journal ArticleDOI

Grammont inverted total shoulder arthroplasty in the treatment of glenohumeral osteoarthritis with massive rupture of the cuff. Results of a multicentre study of 80 shoulders.

TL;DR: The promising early results obtained with the inverted prosthesis in the treatment of a cuff-tear arthropathy are confirmed and it should be considered in thetreatment of osteoarthritis with a massive tear of the cuff but should be reserved for elderly patients.
Journal ArticleDOI

Grammont reverse prosthesis: design, rationale, and biomechanics.

TL;DR: The Grammont reverse prosthesis offers a true surgical option in several situations where only limited possibilities were previously available: cuff tear arthrosis, persistent shoulder pseudo-paralysis due to a massive and irreparable cuff tear, severe fracture sequelae, prosthetic revision in a cuff-deficient shoulder, and tumor surgery.
Journal ArticleDOI

Treatment of painful pseudoparesis due to irreparable rotator cuff dysfunction with the Delta III reverse-ball-and-socket total shoulder prosthesis.

TL;DR: Total shoulder arthroplasty with the Delta III prosthesis is a salvage procedure for severe shoulder dysfunction caused by an irreparable rotator cuff tear associated with other glenohumeral lesions and has a substantial potential to improve the condition of patients with severe shoulders dysfunction, at least in the short term.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reverse Total Shoulder Arthroplasty: A Review of Results According to Etiology

TL;DR: The advanced age of the patients in the present series and the relatively short duration of follow-up suggest that the reverse total shoulder arthroplasty prosthesis should continue to be used judiciously.
