(English) Epiosde 31-Glenohumeral Osteoarthritis - Unpacking Shoulder Pain Beyond - Wear and Tear and Imaging Scans

Osteoarthritis (OA) is the world’s most common joint disease and there is currently no cure. Glenohumeral osteoarthritis (GHOA) accounts for an estimated 5%–17% of patients with shoulder complaints. The etiology of GHOA is multifactorial, and we review the various non-specific and specific risk factors and further sub-classify them into local and systemic factors.(Ibounig T, Simons T, Launonen A, Paavola M.
