The role of the subscapularis tendon in a lateralized reverse total shoulder arthroplasty: repair versus nonrepair
2019
Purpose
The reverse shoulder prost hesis (rTSA) is now implanted by the same percentage of anatomic shoulder prosthesis in the USA. Scapular notching and loss of extrarotation have been underlined as complication at long-term follow-up due to the Grammont design. The current trend to reduce those limits is to position both components lateralized. As the role of the subscapularis tendon in this new rTSA design is unclear, the purpose of this study is to quantify rTSA outcomes in patients with or without subscapularis tendon suture.
