Episode notes
Ideal Targets in Reverse Shoulder Arthroplasty
- Ideal targets for reverse shoulder arthroplasty are version matching native anatomy and neutral inclination.
- Other goals include 5mm lateral center of rotation and inferior overhang for optimal biomechanics.
Methods for Glenoid Correction
- There are multiple methods to achieve implant positioning like corrective rimming or bone graft augmentation.
- Each method has trade-offs including bone removal, graft healing potential, and correction accuracy.
Use Patient-Matched Baseplates
- Use patient-matched baseplates in primary reverse shoulder arthroplasty for precise implant positioning.
- Plan using CT-based software and avoid reaming the glenoid to ensure guide and implant fit.
