Influence of uncemented humeral stem proximal geometry on stress distributions and torsional stability following total shoulder arthroplasty

BACKGROUND: While surgeons tend to implant larger stems to improve torsional stability, numerous studies demonstrated that increasing humeral stem diameter could exacerbate stress-shielding and lead to bone resorption. We aimed to determine the influence of humeral stem proximal geometry on stress d...
