Types of complications of total shoulder arthroplast

Background: The study of the longterm results after shoulder arthroplasty allows to identify shortcomings and typical complications. At the modern stage of development of shoulder surgery, it is important to study the main types of complications of shoulder arthroplasty and formulate an algorithm for the prevention of complications of shoulder arthroplasty.Methods: Studied medical history of patients who underwent primary and revision shoulder arthroplasty on the basis of Central research institute of traumatology and orthopaedics of N.N. Priorov. we use world-class registers in different countries to study the main types of complications of shoulder arthroplasty. The results of the registers of countries such as the USA, england, Italy, New Zealand and Australia.Results: The most common complications after anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) were component loosening, rotator cuff tear, periprosthetic fracture, neural injury and infection.In reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA), the most common complications in order of decreasing frequency were: instability of the components, dislocation of the endoprosthesis, infection, impingement of the capsule in the cervical zone of the scapula, and rotator cuff tear.Conclusions: The analysis of the results of world registers on total shoulder arthroplasty allows to clarify the most common complications and to develop an algorithm for their prevention.
