“…One option in the treatment of either primary glenohumeral joint osteoarthritis, post‐traumatic arthritis or inflammatory arthritis is shoulder arthroplasty, which has been shown to reduce pain and improve joint function significantly (Bell, Christmas, & Coghlan, 2020; Grey et al, 2020; John, 2019; Leung et al, 2012; Norris & Iannotti, 2002; Papadonikoakis, Neradilek, & Matsen, 2013; Stavrev, Ganev, & Papathanasiou, 2020). The number of shoulder arthroplasty and hemiarthroplasty procedures has increased in the last two decades, with glenohumeral joint osteoarthritis being the primary diagnosis for 43% and 77% of hemiarthroplasties and total shoulder arthroplasties respectively (Bell et al, 2020; Grey et al, 2020; Kim, Wise, Zhang, & Szabo, 2011; Papadonikoakis et al, 2013). As the prevalence of shoulder arthroplasty increases, the prevalence of shoulder revision procedures has also dramatically increased (Day et al, 2010; Kim et al, 2011).…”
