Abstract
Glenoid deformity has an important effect on outcomes and complication rates after shoulder arthroplasty for primary glenohumeral arthritis. The B2/B3 glenoid has particularly been associated with a poorer outcome with shoulder arthroplasty compared with other glenoid types. One of the primary challenges is striking a balance between deformity correction and joint line preservation. Recently, there has been a proliferation of both anatomic and reverse implants that may be used to address glenoid deformity. The purpose of this review was to provide an evidence-based approach for addressing glenoid deformity associated with primary glenohumeral arthritis.
