Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Medical practices are increasingly influenced by technological advancements and more personalized approaches to the care of each patient. In shoulder arthroplasty surgery, the constant evolution of the implant design and combinations aims to achieve improved clinical outcomes in the shortest possible time. Also, precise indications and specific surgical techniques are used to select the right treatment for the patient, while more studies are needed to define patient satisfaction, cost-effectiveness, safety, and optimal ways of increasing functional recovery and minimizing complications. For reverse shoulder arthroplasty, the most-discussed themes are the benefits of artificial intelligence, the role of preoperative 3D planning software, lateralization, and optimal humeral size and inclination. For anatomic arthroplasty, more precise indications and implant configurations are needed to reduce revsion rates. This Special Issue will improve knowledge of clinical, technical, and epidemiological advances that could lead to improvements in the diagnosis and treatment of shoulder arthroplasty.
