Compared to patients without Parkinson's disease undergoing shoulder arthroplasty, patients with Parkinson's disease achieved similar reductions in pain but inferior clinical function. The range of movement was less predictable, and complication rates were significantly higher in Parkinson's disease patients. This study will aid the surgeon and patient regarding surgical intervention, informed consent, and allow the surgeon to anticipate potential complications of shoulder arthroplasty in this patient cohort.
