Design and Development Towards a Novel Prosthesis for Total Shoulder Arthroplasty to Reduce Aseptic Glenoid Loosening
… with 2.5% increase in revision rate. Aseptic glenoid loosening accounts for 37% of postsurgical failures in TSA. Eccentric loading of the prosthetic glenoid cup, leading to the “rocking horse” effect, is one of the prevalent causes of aseptic glenoid loosening. Current anatomical total …

ASTM assessment of a novel shoulder prosthetic design: measurement of glenoid edge motion in three degrees of freedom
… of An anatomical shoulder joint prosthesis is loosening of the glenoid component, widely attributed to ‘rocking' of the component under eccentric edge loading. The American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) set out a standardised test to evaluate glenoid loosening, in which the glenoid …

Development of a two-axis cyclic loading device for mechanical testing of glenoid component fixation
The fundamental mechanism of aseptic glenoid component loosening, the rocking horse phenomenon, is a reaction to glenohumeral articular forces that are not centered on the component. While glenoid component loosening remains a problem, the underlying mechanisms that lead to fixation failure at the …
