Implication

Observational analysis evaluated functional outcomes after reverse total shoulder arthroplasty, suggesting improvement in elderly patients with locked shoulder dislocation.

Key Points

Reverse total shoulder arthroplasty significantly improves functional outcomes in elderly patients with locked shoulder dislocation, with decreased pain and enhanced satisfaction.
Patients showed marked improvement in Constant, UCLA, and DASH scores over an average postoperative follow-up of 48 months.
The analysis was conducted on a cohort of 10 patients aged around 68, revealing no complications post-surgery across various chronic dislocations.
Findings support rTSA as a safe and effective treatment, highlighting the need for personalized evaluations in surgical approaches to shoulder injuries.
