Abstract
Glenoid revision surgery in the absence of infection provides satisfactory results, especially when instability is not coexisting. When glenoid bone stock permits, reimplantation of a new glenoid component in an active patient with an intact rotator cuff and no instability is reasonable. When the remaining glenoid bone will not support a new component, conversion to a hemiarthroplasty is also reasonable.
