Abstract
Bone loss of the proximal humerus presents a unique and difficult problem. The loss of rotator cuff attachment sites causes dysfunction that can be successfully treated with reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA). However, significant bone loss can be detrimental to implant stability and function. Surgical options for shoulder reconstruction become increasingly more complex with increasing severity of proximal humeral bone deficiency.
