Absence of rotator cuff allows unbalanced muscle forces of the shoulder to cause vertical migration of the humeral head. The translation of the humerus causes impaction of articular surface against the acromion. The purpose of the study is to assess outcome of Cuff tear arthropathy (CTA) Hemiarthroplasty prosthesis in this group of patients. Retrospective review was undertaken in 42 patients who underwent Global CTA Hemiarthroplasty between Jan 2001-Jan 2009. The mean length of follow up was 6 years.Background
