Structural glenoid grafting during primary reverse total shoulder arthroplasty using humeral head autograft

RTSA incorporating structural grafting of the glenoid with humeral head autograft results in significant improvements in active forward elevation, pain, and function, with a low complication rate. This technique can reliably be used to achieve correction of large (up to 35°) glenoid defects with a 93% chance of baseplate survival and a 100% chance of graft incorporation in the short-term.
