    Abstract

    Rotator cuff deficiency with associated glenohumeral arthritis poses a formidable clinical challenge. Humeral head replacement with maintenance of the coracoacromial arch is the current treatment of choice. Properly performed arthroplasty can provide pain relief and modest gains in motion.
