No correlation between radiolucency and biomechanical stability of keeled and pegged glenoid components

Abstract Background The purpose of this study was to examine biomechanical properties and the degree of radiolucency of two cemented basic glenoid designs for total shoulder arthroplasty. Our hypothesis was that a component with increased micro-motion in the laboratory at time zero would also exhibi...
