Abstract:Massive irreparable rotator cuff tears (RCTs) affect the clinical outcomes of reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA). However, the effects of subscapularis repair on the outcomes of RSA, based on the degree of posterior-superior RCTs, are unclear. This study aimed to examine the effect of subscapularis repair on three-dimensional joint contact forces (JCFs) based on the degree of posterior-superior RCT severity in RSA. Ten human in vivo experimental data were used as input to the musculoskeletal model. A six-degr… Show more
