N2 - Prosthetic sizing of the glenohumeral articulation influences postoperative shoulder strength stability and range of motion through its influence on the lateral humeral offset. Prosthetic sizing along with proper prosthetic orientation, soft tissue balancing, capsular release, and rotator cuff repair when necessary, are inter-related factors that significantly influence the function of the prosthetic shoulder. Intraoperative assessment of prosthetic size is determined by the lateral humeral offset rotator cuff tissue tension, intraoperative range of motion, and stability of the shoulder.
