The literature article entitled ¿a prospective functional outcome study of shoulder arthroplasty for arthritis with an intact rotator cuff¿, written by robert m.Orfaly, md, frcs, et al.; published in the journal of shoulder and elbow surgery, may/june 2013; was reviewed.The purpose of the article was to report on prospective pain relief and functional outcome data on 65 shoulder arthroplasties in 55 patients.37 total shoulder arthroplasties and 28 hemiarthroplasties were followed up for a mean of 4.3 years (2-8 years).Two main issues are addressed; assessing the benefits of shoulder arthroplasty quantitatively; and to explore the role of glenoid replacement.The implant used was the global total shoulder arthroplasty system (depuy).Keeled glenoids were used in 31 shoulders and pegged glenoids were used in 31 shoulders based on surgeon preference.All patients had improvement scores after surgery.There were no cases of definite component loosening based on serial radiographs and no cases of heterotopic bone formation were noted.Three complications were noted in the series: one patient developed a hematoma and a detachment of the subscapularis tendon in the early postoperative period.Evacuation of the hematoma and repair of the subscapularis were performed.There were no further sequelae.Another patient developed a separation of the anterior deltoid origin after a traumatic event one year after surgery.An open repair was performed, and the patient was functioning well with a strong deltoid at final follow-up.There was one case of symptomatic glenoid loosening 7 years after the index procedure.The patient was treated with allograft placed in the glenoid defect.The patient has done well, with one year of follow-up from the revision.
