Abstract

Introduction

We report our experience of revision of failed stemmed shoulder hemi-arthroplasty for causes other than infection.

Material/method

Seventeen revisions were followed for a minimum of 2 years. Fifteen cases were revised for symptomatic glenoid erosion. Sixteen were revised to a total shoulder arthroplasty and one to a cuff tear arthropathy head.

Result

The mean visual analogue pain score following revision surgery was reduced from 6.7 to 3.2 (P = 0.008). However the Constant–Murley and the Association of Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons scores failed to improve significantly.

Conclusion

We conclude that revision surgery for failed stemmed shoulder hemi-arthroplasty improves pain but not function.
