Computed Tomographic and Functional Follow-up of Glenoid Anchor Peg Component Fixation Utilizing Autologous Bone Graft in Total Shoulder Arthroplasty

To investigate if the use of autologous bone graft around the anchor-peg glenoid prosthesis
correlates with bony apposition on computed tomography scans, decreased radiolucent lines
and component loosening, and functional outcomes. We hypothesize that by utilizing
autologous bone graft from the resected humeral head, placed around the anchor peg glenoid
prosthesis at implantation, there is a low incidence of glenoid loosening. We suggest that
the absence of radiolucent lines correlated with excellent shoulder function.

This is a case study to evaluate the adequacy of fixation and functional outcome of the
glenoid anchor peg following autologous bone grafting around the prosthesis at the time of
implant.

Inclusion Criteria:

- Patients who received a total shoulder replacement with an anchor peg glenoid and
autologous bone grafting from the investigator of this study will be recruited for
this study.

Exclusion Criteria:

- Patients will be excluded if they are unable to comprehend the consent information.

- Pregnant women will be excluded from this study.
