Intended purpose
Glenosphere component of the MUTARS system used as part of an inverse humeral replacement in case of rotator cuff insufficiencies. Primary indication for the use of the MUTARS systems is after bone resection because of a tumour. Further indications for the use of the MUTARS systems are massive bone loss such as in Morbus Gorham or for the revision arthroplasty and for the prosthetic treatment in case of fractures, pseudarthrosis and arthrosis.
