Optimizing Reverse Shoulder Arthroplasty: Subscapularis Over-the-top Repair and Teres Minor Re-tensioning Can Enhance Shoulder Function Without Excessive Lateralization

Key Points

• Enhancing shoulder function occurs through the repair of subscapularis and re-tensioning of teres minor, with reduced lateralization.
• Significant improvements in range of motion and strength were noted after specific surgical interventions.
• Assessment involved observational analysis of patients receiving reverse shoulder arthroplasty with targeted techniques and outcomes were measured postoperatively.
• Further studies may enable broader applications of these techniques, highlighting their potential in restoring function.
