Total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA), including anatomic TSA (aTSA) and reverse TSA (rTSA), has increased in popularity due to reliably good patient outcomes. Postoperative physical therapy (PT) is considered essential to the success of this operation and has become standard practice. The authors present general rehabilitation principles as well as preferred postoperative PT protocols for aTSA and rTSA, which are based on evidence-based literature and the different early postoperative concerns for each of these procedures.

Background: Anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty are highly successful procedures for treatment of glenohumeral arthritis to reduce pain, improve range of motion, and overall quality of life. However, the long-term survivorship of the implant systems is less widely documented in the existing literature. The purpose of this study was to establish the long-term patient outcomes and identify factors influencing the postoperative implant survivorship of total anatomic shoulder arthroplasty devices/procedures utilizing the short-stemmed prosthesis and hybrid glenoid components of the Comprehensive Shoulder System (Zimmer Biomet, Warsaw, IN, USA) at an average of ten years.

Division of Shoulder Sports Medicine and Arthroplasty, Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Jeju National University Hospital, Jeju 63241, Republic of Korea.
To evaluate the clinical and radiologic outcomes of arthroscopic augmented partial repair (APR) with acellular dermal matrix versus arthroscopic superior capsular reconstruction (SCR) in massive rotator cuff tears. The study included a total of 49 patients with massive rotator cuff tears who underwent arthroscopic APR (26 patients) and SCR (23 patients) between March 2018 and June 2021. Clinical scores, visual analog scores, and range of motion were collected preoperatively and postoperatively until the last follow-up.

The mortality rate following proximal humerus fractures (PHFs) in elderly patients is increased, but currently, there are no medium-term studies comparing mortality following treatment with Reverse Total Shoulder Arthroplasty (RTSA) to non-surgical treatment. This retrospective study compares two groups of elderly patients (aged 75 to 95 at the time of injury) who were diagnosed with PHFs. A total of 79 patients (mean age: 83.

Corticosteroid injections (CSIs) are commonly administered for temporary pain relief in the setting of various conditions. Therefore, the current systematic review aims to evaluate whether CSIs administered prior to total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) are a risk factor for PJI and revision surgery.

Background: In USA, total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) ranks amongst the top five surgeries that require hospitalization. As a result, the healthcare system in USA could face a considerable financial strain due to the emergence of subsequent pulmonary problems. This study aimed to conduct a thorough examination of the prevalence, influential factors and medical importance of pulmonary complications, with emphasis on pneumonia, respiratory failure and pulmonary embolism (PE) following total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) procedures in USA.
