The eccentric glenosphere was principally introduced into reverse
shoulder arthroplasty to reduce the incidence of scapular notching.
There is only limited information about the influence of its design
on deltoid power and joint reaction forces. The aim of our study was to investigate how the diameter and
eccentricity of the glenosphere affect the biomechanics of the deltoid
and the resultant joint reaction forces. Different sizes of glenosphere and eccentricity were serially
tested in ten cadaveric shoulders using a custom shoulder movement
simulator.Aims
