This article provides an anatomical and biomechanical framework for the
postoperative management and progression of treatment for shoulder arthroplasty.
The clinical relevance of normal shoulder anatomy, biomechanics, and
pathomechanics related to this surgery is emphasized to provide the reader with
an understanding of the rationale for treatment.
We review the rehabilitation
implications of surgical indications and technique for both traditional total
shoulder arthroplasty and reverse total shoulder arthroplasty procedures with an
emphasis on biomechanical considerations. Relevant factors that affect
rehabilitation outcomes are discussed along with supporting evidence from the
literature. Principles to guide and progress treatment are highlighted with a
discussion on return to sports with the ultimate objective of providing a
comprehensive approach for successful rehabilitation.
