Description
Summary:This study aimed to investigate impingement-free range of motion (ROM) of the glenohumeral joint following reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (RTSA) with three types of implant models using computational motion analysis. Three-dimensional (3D) scapulohumeral models were created from preoperative computed tomography (CT) images of seven patients by using visualization and computer-aided design software. Three types of implant designs, namely, typical medialization, in between, and lateralization implants, were used for the reconstruction of 3D model; each design was designated as group I, II, and III, respectively. All possible combinations of virtual surgeries were evaluated for impingement-free ROM in all three groups. Maximal ROMs were compared. The effect of implant positions on ROM of the shoulder joints were investigated in each group. The all lateralization group (group III) showed significantly greatest maximal adduction, abduction and external rotation (ER). Adduction and abduction were significantly increased by the glenoid component inferior translation in all three groups. (In group I, p
