Stemless shoulder prosthesis
Brief summary
In the past years several shoulder reconstruction systems with different types of prostheses and fixation methods have been developed to improve shoulder arthroplasty, trying to cover a wide range of pathologies and revision situations. The aim of the present study is to report radiological and clinical outcome with a stemless shoulder implant with hollow screw fixation.
