Long-term Outcomes of Anatomical Total Shoulder Replacement at 10 Years: Analysis of the Australian Joint Replacement Registry

Anatomic total shoulder replacement (TSR) is a reliable operation for end-stage glenohumeral arthritis. Several factors contribute to the survivorship of TSR, which include both patient and implant characteristics. Age, sex, body mass index, and preoperative glenoid morphology are among the patient characteristics that may affect the outcomes after TSR. The different glenoid and humeral component designs significantly affect survivorship of TSR as well. Significant evolution has occurred over the years in the design of the glenoid component. This article aims to look at the outcomes of TSR affected by the various patient and implant characteristics, their ramifications, and effect on implant survivorship based on the 2021 Annual Report of the Australian Orthopaedic Association National Joint Replacement Registry.
