Retrospective matched cohort analysis shows similar improvement in ROM and PROMs for RTSA in dislocation arthropathy and osteoarthritis patients.

Patients with dislocation arthropathy demonstrated comparable improvements in clinical outcomes to those with osteoarthritis.
Implant survival at final follow-up was 100% for dislocation arthropathy patients compared to 98% for those with osteoarthritis.
Both groups showed significant enhancements in range of motion and patient-reported outcomes, with no notable differences between them.
The complication rates were similar at 9% for the dislocation arthropathy group compared to 11% for the osteoarthritis group.

Goldfarb et al. (2025) studied this question.
