Abstract

[Indexed for MEDLINE] 17. Instr Course Lect. 2021;70:37-54. The Basic Shoulder Arthroplasty: Simple Shoulder Replacement for the Generalist. Groh GI, Kirsch JM, Williams GR Jr, Colley R, Levy JC, Serrano R, Frankle MA. Shoulder arthroplasty was first introduced through the developments of Dr. Charles Neer and over the past decade has seen several advancements. Improved recognition and training have heightened the awareness of arthroplasty as a treatment alternative both for surgeons and patients. The addition of reverse shoulder arthroplasty has been the driving force behind the explosive growth of arthroplasty and is now performed more often than anatomic shoulder arthroplasty. Although revision shoulder arthroplasty is primarily of interest to the subspecialist, it is a skill sought by the general orthopaedic surgeon. It is important for the orthopaedic surgeon to be knowledgeable about the planning, necessary skills, and management of basic shoulder arthroplasty.
