Cow-hitch suture cerclage for fixation of the greater tuberosity in fracture reverse total shoulder arthroplasty in elderly patients with a minimum follow-up of 2 years: A case-control study

Objectives: Reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (RTSA) is a well-established treatment option for complex proximal humerus fractures in elderly patients. One important factor for good clinical outcomes is the healing of the greater tuberosity (GT). The purpose of this study was to compare the outcomes [for full text, please go to the a.m. URL]
