Case: A 78-year-old woman who underwent reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (RTSA) for proximal humerus fracture developed a Type-3 acromial stress fracture, resulting in increased pain and decreased function 9 months post-op. She was managed nonoperatively with adjunctive teriparatide (FORTEO), and after a 4-month course, she had regained excellent motion and achieved union. Conclusion: Teriparatide is a viable adjunct in treating patients nonoperatively with acromial stress fractures after RTSA. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
