Article Synopsis
- The study examines the outcomes of revising failed anatomic shoulder arthroplasty to reverse total shoulder arthroplasty, noting promising results but significant complication rates.
- Over a 7-year period, 110 patients were analyzed, with follow-up data showing 92% implant survival at 2 years and 74% at 5 years, while patient satisfaction remained moderate.
- Complications occurred in 20% of patients, and reoperations were needed in 11%, indicating the need for more research to improve success factors in these procedures.
