Treatment of Painful Pseudoparesis Due to Irreparable Rotator Cuff Dysfunction With the Delta Iii Reverse-Ball-and-Socket Total Shoulder Prosthesis

Early results after modular non-cemented reverse total shoulder arthroplasty: a prospective single-centre study of 38 consecutive cases

“…As other (1) Conservative treatment authors have described before, this study showed a significant relief from pain after RTSA [3,6,26]. Concerning subjective functional outcome, the present study was able to monitor comparable outcomes to other studies [2,3,5,6,26].…”

“…Comparing the complication incidence of 13 % within this series with other studies, we found a reduced total complication rate. As for this study, Werner et al [6] reported a complication rate of 51 % (re-operation rate 39 %) and Boileau and colleagues [3] described a complication rate of 29 % (revision rate 22 %) for a heterogeneous group of patients after RTSA. As a limitation for this comparison, it must be mentioned that the mean follow-up of these two studies exceeded the presented study by 14 and 16 months, respectively.…”

“…Several studies have shown that RSTA reliably provides pain relief, restores overhead elevation, and provides satisfying subjective clinical outcomes in most of these patients [1][2][3][4][5][6].…”

The use of the Lima reverse shoulder arthroplasty for the treatment of fracture sequelae of the proximal humerus

“…Reverse total shoulder arthroplasty has been used to treat cuff tear arthritis [9][10][11][12][13], fracture sequelae [11,12], acute proximal humeral fractures [14,15] and failed hemiarthroplasty [16,17]. However, experience with treating proximal humerus fracture sequelae with reverse total shoulder arthroplasty is limited [11,12] and its benefit has not yet been clearly established.…”

Frakturen des Humeruskopfes

“…B. das inferiore Notching, durch moderne Prothesendesigns gemindert. Aufgrund der noch nach wie vor erhöhten Komplikationsrate in Form von Infektion, sekundärer Prothesenlockerung und Prothesenluxation ist die Indikation zur inversen Frakturprothese jedoch weiterhin kritisch zu stellen [38,39,40]. Unterstrichen wird die- …”
