Overview

Clinical outcomes improved after glenohumeral version correction in patients undergoing shoulder arthroplasty, suggesting its importance.

Key Points

  • This research aims to evaluate the reliability of 3D CT planning in correcting glenoid version and its impact on short-term clinical outcomes after shoulder arthroplasty.
  • Enrolled fifty consecutive patients undergoing anatomic shoulder arthroplasty.
  • Utilized preoperative 3D CT scans to plan and restore a normal range of glenoid version.
  • Performed postoperative CT scans to assess component alignment and version correction.
  • Measured outcomes using ASES shoulder score and PROMIS Global Health survey.
  • Followed up with assessments at baseline, 14 weeks, one year, and two years.
  • 76% of patients achieved corrected glenoid version within the normal range postoperatively.
  • Significant improvements in pain, pain medication use, and range of motion observed at two-year follow-up.
  • No statistically significant differences in outcomes for glenoid version corrected within or outside the normal range.
