Reverse total shoulder arthroplasty outcomes in elderly patients
Patients aged 85 years and older can expect significant improvement in shoulder function and significant reduction of pain after rTSA. Overall clinical outcome is comparable to a younger population. Complication and revision rates are low. Age should not be a limiting factor when considering rTSA.
