Abstract:
Emerging technologies in shoulder arthroplasty, such as 3-dimensional planning software and real-time intraoperative navigation, are now available for surgeons to perform more accurate placement of the glenoid component without malposition or perforation. Using these tools, the surgeon can visualize the version, inclination, and containment of the implant and determine whether augmented components would be necessary. This review provides an updated investigation of the present literature to elucidate the role of computer navigation in modern shoulder arthroplasty.
