    Description of Event or Problem · 1

    INFORMATION WAS RECEIVED BASED ON A REVIEW OF THE JOURNAL ARTICLE, "ASSOCIATION OF LATERAL HUMERAL OFFSET WITH FUNCTIONAL OUTCOME AND GEOMETRIC RESTORATION IN STEMLESS TOTAL SHOULDER ARTHROPLASTY." THE AIMS OF THIS STUDY WERE TO DETERMINE THE ASSOCIATION OF POSTOPERATIVE LHO CHANGES WITH SHOULDER FUNCTION AND QUALITY OF LIFE AND TO INVESTIGATE THE ABILITY OF STEMLESS ANATOMIC TSA TO RESTORE LHO, HH, COR, AND NSA. THE HYPOTHESIS WAS THAT POSTOPERATIVE LHO CHANGES WOULD INFLUENCE SHOULDER FUNCTION AND QUALITY OF LIFE AND THE STEMLESS ANATOMIC TSA WOULD RESTORE THE TESTED GEOMETRIC PARAMETERS TO ACCEPTABLE LIMITS. TWO PATIENTS IDENTIFIED IN THE ARTICLE WERE REPORTED TO HAVE EXPERIENCED POST-TRAUMATIC OSTEOARTHRITIS FOLLOWING IMPLANTATION OF THE DEVICE.
