Reverse Shoulder Arthroplasty for a failed Hemi-mega prosthesis in a previously treated Osteosarcoma: A Case Report and Literature Review

Nepal Orthopedic Association Journal | 2025 | Gopal Prasad Gyanwali

Osteosarcoma of the proximal humerus presents a significant surgical challenge requiring wide excision and reconstruction. Megaprosthetic reconstruction is the preferred surgical treatment, though long-term complications, such as implant failure, may necessitate revision surgery. In this study, we present a case of a 27-year-old female who underwent a successful revision surger...

Indications to Paul Grammont Prosthesis

Progress in Orthopedic Science | 2020 | Saccomanni Bernardino

The outcome of an anatomical shoulder replacement depends on an intact rotator cuff. In 1981 Grammont designed a novel large-head reverse shoulder replacement for patients with cuff deficiency. Such has been the success of this replacement that it has led to a rapid expansion of the indications. We performed a systematic review of the literature to evaluate the functional outco...

Effects of changing strategies of fracture fixation on immunologic changes and systemic complications after multiple trauma: Damage control orthopedic surgery

Journal of Orthopaedic Research | 2008 | Hans‐Christoph Pape

AbstractIn the treatment of polytrauma patients, multiple studies have shown how the timing and the type of the initial surgery of long bone fractures influence the incidence of systemic complications. Database analyses documented that unduly long surgical procedures undertaken early after trauma increase the risk of acute respiratory distress syndrom (ARDS), especially when fe...
