Inclination of the inferior portion of the native glenoid may be reliably measured with the reverse shoulder arthroplasty angle in patients with rotator cuff tear arthropathy, according to published results.
Researchers compared the reverse shoulder arthroplasty angle with the global glenoid inclination (total shoulder arthroplasty angle) among 47 shoulders with rotator cuff tear arthropathy. Researchers defined the reverse shoulder arthroplasty angle as the angle between the inferior part of the glenoid fossa and the perpendicular to the floor of the supraspinatus. Three independent observers made measurements on plain anteroposterior radiographs and reformatted 2-D CT scans and compared these measurements with 3-D software measurements.
