Biomechanical assessment of RTSA functional outcomes towards optimising the prosthesis configuration
Reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (RTSA) alleviates pain and restores function to patients with cuff tear arthropathies or massive rotator cuff tears. The procedure uses a semi-constrained prosthesis to reverse the orientation of the glenohumeral joint, thereby altering the biomechanics of the del...
