Reverse shoulder total joint prosthesis

Record ID 32014001194
English
Authors' objectives: The reverse shoulder prosthesis is a semi-constrained glenohumeral joint prosthesis with a reverse ball and socket configuration. The design moves the center of rotation distal and medial compared with the anatomic center of rotation, and this positioning improves control of the 3 parts of the deltoid muscle over humeral motion. The goal of reverse shoulder arthroplasty is to stabilize the joint, restore joint mobility, and to reduce shoulder pain.
