The aim of this study was to report the outcomes of different treatment options for glenoid loosening following reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) at a minimum follow-up of two years. We retrospectively studied the records of 79 patients (19 men, 60 women; 84 shoulders) aged 70.4 years (21 to 87) treated for aseptic loosening of the glenosphere following RSA. Clinical evaluation included pre- and post-treatment active anterior elevation (AAE), external rotation, and Constant score.Aims
Patients and Methods
A variety of operative techniques have been described as under
the term ‘Bristow-Latarjet’ procedure. This review aims to define
the original procedure, and compare the variation in techniques
described in the literature, assessing any effect on clinical outcomes. A systematic review of 24 studies was performed to compare specific
steps of the technique (coracoid osteotomy site, subscapularis approach,
orientation and position of coracoid graft fixation and fixation
method, additional labral and capsular repair) and detect any effect
this variability had on outcomes.Objectives
