Clinical and radiological results of a cementless short stem shoulder prosthesis at minimum follow-up of two years

Purpose Uncemented short stem shoulder arthroplasty combines the advantages of a bone-saving implantation with a straightforward revision option. Uncemented humeral long stems can be associated with stress shielding and loosening. Therefore, we analysed the clinical and radiological outcome of a short stem shoulder prosthesis with metaphyseal fixation.
