A journal article has just been published in EFORT Open Reviews that delves into the intricacies of treatment strategies for major glenoid defects during primary reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA).
Title: "A narrative review of treatment strategies for major glenoid defects during primary reverse shoulder arthroplasty, with a focus on the use of structural bone graft."
Authors: Pududu Archie Rachuene, Roopam Dey, Sudesh Sivarasu. Jean Pierre Du Plessis, Stephen Roche and Basil Vrettos
Abstract Highlights:
- Structural glenoid defects are frequently encountered during primary RSA and can result in sub-optimal outcomes.
- There's a notable lack of pre-op imaging protocols to determine the exact nature of glenoid wear.
- While bone grafting has shown promise in addressing glenoid wear during RSA, clarity is needed on its application and graft preparation.
- This review seeks to evaluate the current evidence on managing glenoid defects, spotlighting the role of bone grafts in primary RSA patients.
With advancements like these, we continue to push the frontiers of orthopaedic science and improve patient outcomes. A must-read for professionals in the field!

Attending the 29th International Society of Biomechanics was an enriching experience.
Taking back valuable biomechanical learnings. Enjoyed being in Japan so far and experiencing its rich culture. It was great to catch up with old friends and make new ones.
