RTSA

reverse total shoulder arthroplasty(English)

  • although the most common indication is rotator cuff tear arthroplasty, this has been expanded to include several conditions and situations that were difficult to treat with anatomical shoulder arthroplasty, such as acute proximal humerus fracture, chronic locked dislocation, chronic pseudoparalysis caused by irreparable rotator cuff without arthritis, glenohumeral arthritis with severe glenoid bone loss, immunological arthritis with or without associated rotator cuff tears, malunited/nonunited proximal humerus fracture, failed shoulder arthroplasty and tumors. Many of these conditions involve dysfunction of the rotator cuff. Also as rTSA
