Principles and Evidence for Reverse Shoulder Replacement…by George Athwal

Dear Colleagues:

For your interest, I’d recommend you watch this 10-minute video about Reverse replacement by my good friend George Athwal. It reviews planning and consideration of evidence for positioning of the glenoid component. As over 73% of all shoulder replacements are reverse it is good to dive deep into all options. Christian Gerber, the greatest shoulder surgeon innovator of his generation said, “A Mind which understands the principles will design its own methods.” Dr. Athwal describes the principles as well as the evidence and lack thereof, which allow us to execute good surgery when performing Reverse Replacement, no matter which system and company products we chose to use.
