To Evaluate the Safety and Clinical Radiological Outcomes in 2 Years of Embrance Model Reverse Shoulder Arthroplasty

The use of inverted prostheses to replace shoulder joints damaged by degenerative or traumatic processes has become widespread over the past three decades. Current designs, used correctly, can restore function and improve pain in the majority of patients in whom they are implanted.

However, there are complications associated with shoulder arthroplasty surgery, such as wear of the prosthetic components, infection, allergy to the prosthetic components, or failure to restore full shoulder function. The occurrence of these complications is affected by multiple factors dependent on the subject, the surgeon and/or the implant used.
