Background: Uncemented femoral stems in hip arthroplasty have shown excellent long-term results, and several systematic studies indicate satisfactory performance of short stems. However, biomechanical and finite element analysis studies have suggested that shorter stems allow greater micromotion, producing greater strain at the implant-bone interface, which potentially increases the risk for periprosthetic fracture (PPF). We sought to assess this risk within our unit.

Background: Reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) is frequently performed in the revision setting as a salvage procedure. The purpose of this study was to report the clinical outcomes and complication, reoperation, and revision rates after revision RSA (RRSA) stratified according to the primary shoulder procedure undergoing revision.

Methods: Four databases (Embase, MEDLINE, SPORTDiscus, and Cochrane Controlled Trials Register) were searched for eligible studies published between January 1985 and September 2017.
