A novel option for glenoid reconstruction may be the distal radius allograft



WASHINGTON — Results presented here showed distal radius allografts had greater mean graft length and more acute radius of curvature than distal tibia allografts and may be a novel glenoid reconstruction option.
Adam Khan MD, and his colleagues evaluated the distal radius as an alternative to the distal tibia for glenoid repair. They also measured the radius curvature, in both superior and inferior planes of the glenoid, graft size in the superior-inferior plane, graft fitting post-fixation (including the bony radius curvature), and bone mineral density.
