Does a pegged anchorage system improve cement survival compared to a keeled system in glenoid replacement prostheses?
A pegged anchorage system is biomechanically superior for normal bone, whereas a keeled anchorage system is superior for rheumatoid arthritis bone in glenoid replacement.
Lacroix et al. (2000) studied this question.
