Stemless reverse shoulder arthroplasty neck shaft angle influences humeral component time-zero fixation and survivorship: a cadaveric biomechanical assessment.

NSA is a modifiable parameter that influences time-zero implant stability, as well as the early survivorship of the stemless RSA humeral components tested in this study. NSA resections of 145° appear to promote better stability than those utilizing 135° NSAs during early postoperative eccentric loads. Further studies are required to assess if other stemless reversed humeral implant designs have improved time-zero fixation at higher NSAs.
