“…The choice between HSA and TSA has been a topic of debate, with proponents of HSA arguing that it is a less invasive, faster, cheaper, and technically less demanding procedure, with quality of life outcomes equivalent to those of TSA. Though there is evidence to support these claims [4,8,16], more recent randomized controlled trials, multicenter studies, and meta-analyses have concluded that TSA is superior to HSA for treatment of primary glenohumeral osteoarthritis in terms of pain relief, function, ROM, strength, and patient satisfaction [4,5,8,20,21,27]. Furthermore, based on studies from 2003 and 2005, the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS), in its clinical practice guidelines from 2009 [13], recommend using TSA over HSA because it achieves superior pain relief, better global health assessment scores, and lower revision rates.…”
