Abstract Introduction Stemmed humeral implants have represented the gold standard in total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) for decades. Like many other joints, the latest trends in TSA designs aim at bone preservation. Current studies have demonstrated that native proximal humeral bone stresses are most closely mimicked by stemless implants. Nevertheless, there are concerns about the long-term performance of stemless designs. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the long-term radiographic changes at the proximal humerus in anatomical stemless press-fit TSA. Materials and Methods Between 2008 and 2010, 48 sho…
