Comparative clinical outcomes of reverse total shoulder arthroplasty for primary cuff tear arthropathy vs severe glenohumeral osteoarthritis with intact rotator cuff: A matched-cohort analysis

Journal of the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons Dec 04, 2020

Waterman BR, Dean RS, Naylor A, et al. - This study was intended to match the short- to mid-term results of individuals who had undergone reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (RTSA) for severe glenohumeral osteoarthritis (GHOA) with an intact rotator cuff (RC) to a matched rotator cuff arthropathy (RCA) cohort. Researchers distinguished all all individuals who had undergone RTSA for severe GHOA with a minimum 2-year follow-up between 2004 and 2014. The analysis included a total of 136 individuals with mean follow-up 32.3 ± 12.3 months. Individuals who had undergone RTSA for severe GHOA with intact RC indicate similar consistent improvement in outcomes to demographically similar individuals with RCA. At the 2-year follow-up, the severity of GHOA characterized by the Walch classification did not impact the outcomes.
