Latissimus dorsi tendon transfer in reverse shoulder arthroplasty: transfer location affects strength

Latissimus dorsi tendon transfer in reverse shoulder arthroplasty: transfer location affects strength

Background: The optimal insertion location of a latissimus dorsi tendon transfer to restore external rotation after reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) is not well established. The aim of this biomechanical study was to determine the effect of tendon transfer location on external rotation torque, in...
