Background: The purpose of this randomized controlled trial was to compare humeral inclinations of 135 degrees and 155 degrees in patients undergoing primary reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA). Our hypothesis was that forward flexion would be higher in the 155 degrees group but be associated with a higher rate of scapular notching.Methods: A randomized controlled trial was conducted on 100 primary RSAs performed with a humeral inclination of either 135 degrees or 155 degrees. The prostheses were otherwise identical and a neutral glenosphere was used in all cases. Functional outcome, forward flexion, external rotation, and scapular notching were assessed at a minimum of 2 years postoperatively.Results: There was no difference in range of motion or functional outcome scores between the 2 groups. In the 155 degrees group, forward flexion improved from 76 degrees to 135 degrees (P < .001) and external rotation remained unchanged (29 degrees vs. 30 degrees; P = .835). In the 135 degrees group, postoperative forward flexion improved from 78 degrees to 132 degrees (P < .001) and external rotation was unchanged (28 degrees vs. 29 degrees; P = .814). Scapular notching was observed in 58% of cases with a 155 degrees inclination compared with 21% with a 135 degrees inclination (P = .009).Conclusion: With a neutral glenosphere there was no difference in postoperative forward flexion or external rotation after an RSA with a humeral inclination of 135 degrees compared with 155 degrees. Scapular notching was reduced with the use of 135 degrees design compared with a 155 degrees design but persists at a rate of 21% at 2-year follow-up in the absence of a lateralized glenosphere.
