“.... a virtuoso of the knife,
who amputates three legs
and two arms in quick
succession, dismantles a
couple of shoulders,
trepans five crania, takes
out half a dozen wombs
and cuts off a few
testicles. He works like this
for about two hours. He is
dripping with blood and
sweat. His feet stand in
pools of blood.”
Léon Daudet

“In the future…the basic
design of the articular
surfaces should remain the
same as normal anatomy.
No biomechanical theory
can improve on anatomical
design.”
22. Biomechanics
• Large glenosphere with no neck
• Small humeral cup covering less than half of
the glenosphere
• Non-anatomomic inclination of 155 deg
• Medialise COR
• Minimises torque on glenoid component
• Recruits more deltoid fibres
• Lowers humerus tensioning deltoid
