In the past years several shoulder reconstruction systems with different types of prostheses and fixation methods have been developed to improve shoulder arthroplasty, trying to cover a wide range of pathologies and revision situations. The aim of the present study is to report radiological and clinical outcome with a stemless shoulder implant with hollow screw fixation.
