Background: This study aimed to determine the revision outcome between a centrally fixed stemless anatomic design and other total anatomic shoulder replacements using data from a large national arthroplasty registry.
Methods: The study period was from December 2011 to December 2022 and included three cohorts; primary Affinis stemless anatomic (AFS), all other primary total stemless anatomic (sTSA) and primary total stemmed anatomic shoulder arthroplasty (aTSA). The endpoint was all-cause revision using cumulative percent revision (CPR). Hazard ratio (HR) models were adjusted for age and gender.
Results: There were 2489 primary AFS, 1593 primary sTSA and 11,023 primary aTSA. There was no difference in revision rates between the AFS and the sTSA group. The aTSA group had a significantly higher rate of revision compared to both AFS (HR = 1.63, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.30-2.05, < 0.001) and sTSA (HR = 1.61, 95% CI 1.21-2.15, = 0.001). However, sub-analyses stratifying for highly crosslinked polyethylene (XLPE) showed no differences between the groups.
Discussion: The rates of revision between the AFS design and other stemless prostheses were similar. Stemless had lower revision rates to aTSA. When only considering XLPE cemented glenoids, there was no significant difference in revision rates.

Background: Painful degeneration of the sternoclavicular joint refractory to nonoperative treatment has historically been managed with resection of the degenerative segment of the medial clavicle. Although this has produced good results with improvement in symptoms, recurrent pain necessitating revision surgery is not an infrequently encountered outcome. To reduce the occurrence of recurrent postoperative pain, a novel technique to reconstruct the intra-articular disc at the time of medial clavicle resection was developed.

Aims: The aim of this study was to report long-term clinical outcomes of a modern convertible metal-backed glenoid (MBG) in total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA).
Methods: After a minimum of 15 years, a previously studied cohort of 35 patients who received a modern convertible MBG during the period 1996 to 2005 was contacted for clinical and radiological follow-up. At last follow-up, patients were evaluated radiologically and clinically according to the Constant Score, Simple Shoulder Test, and visual analogue scale for pain.

Rotator cuff tears in the shoulder joint are common musculoskeletal injuries that may present with or without symptoms. Rotator cuff tears are a common musculoskeletal condition that become increasingly prevalent with age. This mines various surgical interventions for rotator cuff tears, focusing on patient selection criteria and treatment outcomes across different subgroups.

We sought to investigate the effect of EAA supplementation in the perioperative period on patients undergoing orthopedic and spine surgery, specifically whether it is associated with (1) reductions in postoperative muscle atrophy and (2) improved postoperative function including range of motion, strength, and mobility. We conducted a systematic review of the literature.

Background: Anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty (aTSA) is often delayed due to concerns about a more rapid loss of postoperative improvements in younger, more active patients. This retrospective study investigated the effects of patient age on activity-specific functional outcomes at a minimum of 10 years following aTSA.
Methods: A retrospective review of a shoulder arthroplasty database was performed.
