A shoulder replacement is indicated in patients affected by glenohumeral arthropathy with severely reduced range of motion, persistent pain, especially at night, and loss of strength. There is much discussion in the scientific community about the prosthetic options for these cases: hemiarthroplasty, anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty, and reverse total shoulder arthroplasty. We analyzed the indications for, results of, and complications associated with this kind of surgery, focusing on anatomic arthroplasty and on the concept of modularity.

: Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) after shoulder arthroplasty is often treated with a two-stage approach, but the data on the mid- to long-term outcomes remain scarce. This study aimed to evaluate the clinical outcomes of two-stage revision arthroplasty for shoulder PJI with a minimum follow-up of five years. : This retrospective study identified 59 shoulders in 58 patients who underwent the first stage of a two-stage revision arthroplasty for shoulder PJI at our institution between 2007 and 2018.

: Classical reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) with a high neck-shaft angle (NSA) of 155° has shown satisfactory outcomes. However, newer RSA designs aim to improve results by modifying the stem design. This study evaluates the 5-year outcomes of a stem design featuring a rectangular metadiaphyseal fixation and a 135° NSA.

The importance of the subscapularis tendon in reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) has been increasingly emphasized lately. Recent studies have indicated that a repaired subscapularis tendon has better functional outcomes. This study is aimed at comparing the healing rate of repaired subscapularis tendons between onlay and inlay Bony Increased Offset-Reversed Shoulder Arthroplasty (BIO-RSA).

Purpose: This systematic review aimed to assess the impact of prior or concurrent cervical spine pathology on clinical outcomes following shoulder surgery.

Methods: A systematic literature search was performed of the MEDLINE, Embase, and Cochrane databases. The inclusion criteria were English-language studies with Level IV evidence or greater in which shoulder outcomes data were stratified according to whether patients previously had a documented cervical spine procedure or pathology.

Aim: To assess the long-term (>10 years) outcomes in anatomical total shoulder arthroplasty (aTSA) and implant survival in patient under 60 years and identify risk factors for complications and revision.

Methods: This was a retrospective, multicenter study conducted from 1993 to 2008. Over 104 aTSA, 87 in 82 patients (55 years, 36 to 60yo) were included at a mean follow-up of 14±4 years (10 to 25y).
