Metal augmented, press-fit “short post” impaction in primary reverse shoulder arthroplasty presents sufficient stability without central screw in cases with substantial glenoid defects
Objectives and questions: Glenoid bone loss with strong medialization poses a technical challenge in reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) to achieve ideal central screw positioning. To avoid the use of a “post extension” but not missing out on the effects of lateralizing center of rotation, [for full text, please go to the a.m. URL]
