Abstract
Purpose: Mechanisms underlying development and progression of primary glenohumeral osteoarthritis (GHOA) have not been proven conclusively yet. Regarding anatomical factors, critical shoulder angle (CSA) has been received much attention recently and CSA < 30 degree is recognized as a significant risk factor for developing GHOA. Meanwhile, GHOA is possibly a part of generalized OA affected in multiple joints. The aim of this study was to investigate anatomical and systemic manifestations of the patients with end-stage GHOA compared with cuff tear arthropathy (CTA) patients.
