{Abstract}: Reverse Total Shoulder Arthroplasty is being increasingly performed, with indications in both elective and trauma settings. Accordingly, there are an increasing number of revision cases where glenoid bone loss is a concern. There are well recognised surgical techniques for dealing with mild to moderate glenoid wear, including eccentric reaming and impaction grafting. In cases of severe wear or uncontained glenoid defects these may not be suitable, and the surgeon may look to a customised implant to deal with such bone loss. There are several implant manufacturers who currently market and produce patient specific instrumentation and customised glenoid baseplates to achieve the best possible fixation in cases of severe bone loss. This article outlines some examples of custom implants currently available to surgeons, and the process by which they may be procured and used. Implant and surgical considerations, and key aspects of surgical technique are also covered. Literature on outcomes and complications following custom shoulder arthroplasty shows promising results, but at present is limited to relatively small case series with no long-term outcome data.
