Retrovertion Assesment and Study in Elderly Patients With Reverse Total Shoulder Arthroplasty

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Rotator Cuff Tear Arthropathy
Rotator Cuff Tears
Interventions
Procedure: humeral retroversion
Registration Number
NCT06316050
Lead Sponsor
Consorci Sanitari de Terrassa
Brief Summary

Determine the optimal degree of retroversion (0-30º) to obtain the best rotational mobility, both internal and external, of the shoulder after implanting a reversed sghoulder arthroplasty (Comprehensive system), and analyze the functional and radiologic results based on humeral retroversion.

Detailed Description

Methodology: Open randomized controlled clinical trial. It will be carried out with patients operated with reverse shoulder arthroplasty (at 0º and 30º of humeral retroversion) included consecutively in Terrassa Hospital from January 2019 to June 2021. The estimated sample will be 30 patients per group with diagnosis of massive rotator cuff rupture, rotator cuff arthropaty and primary osteoarthritis with cuff injury, with Walch's type B2 glena or in patients older than 80 years. A global study will be carried out preoperatively and postoperatively with radiographs, computerized tomography, magnetic resonance, and a biomechanical study.
