Abstract

Shoulder arthroplasty is still an important issue in modern traumatology and orthopaedics. This type of surgical treatment is associated with a relatively high number of complications and unsatisfactory results, which are often extremely difficult to correct. Glenoid deformity is a common obstacle faced by surgeons performing reverse total shoulder arthroplasty.
