ABSTRACT: Background
Purpose of this study was to evaluate the long - term survivorship and clinical and radiological results of a primary reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (RTSA) performed with uncemented stems.Methods
From 2001 until 2006 61 primary uncemented RTSAs were implanted, which were included in a Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. Range of motion, functional scores and radiological follow - up was obtained. 27 patients were available for follow - up. Mean follow-up was 9.2 years (SD 2.4).Results
Mean cumulative survival was 82.4% (95% CI: 50.7-94.6%) of the total construct and 98.3% (CI: 88.8-98.8%) of the uncemented humeral stem after 12.5 years. Five revisions occurred (8.2%). Mean anteflexion improved from 69.3 to 111.9° (p?ConclusionsThe present study shows that the long-term clinical results of the primary Delta III RTSA seem very encouraging and survivorship of, in particular, its uncemented humeral stem is good.
