Pre-operative metaphyseal cancellous bone density is associated with intra-operative conversion to stemmed total shoulder arthroplasty

HIGHLIGHTS

• who: James M. Gregory and MD from the Department of Orthopedic Surgery, University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston, McGovern Medical School, Houston, TX, USA have published the research: Pre-operative Metaphyseal Cancellous Bone Density is Associated with Intra-operative Conversion to Stemmed Total Shoulder Arthroplasty, in the Journal: (JOURNAL)
• what: The authors sought to quantitatively evaluate proximal humeral bone quality in patients undergoing anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty, and determine whether it is predictive of intra-operative conversion to a stemmed humeral component. The results of this study show that metaphyseal cancellous bone density . . .
