1. A method of shoulder repair, the method comprising the steps of:
providing a humeral prosthetic comprising:
a humeral stem adapted to be introduced into a patient's humerus, the stem having an upper stem portion, a longitudinal axis, and a first plurality of eyelets within the upper stem portion and disposed about parallel to the longitudinal axis of the humeral stem;an elongated inclination component coupled to the upper stem portion of the humeral stem, said elongated inclination component provided with an opening to provide access to a screw to set and fix a position of the inclination component at an inclination angle in relation to the humeral stem, the inclination component further including a second plurality of eyelets provided within the inclination component and disposed about parallel to a longitudinal axis of the inclination component, the inclination component further having an elongate convex surface;a coupling adapter including means for setting a version the coupling adapter comprising a plate and an elongated concavity formed on a side of the plate, the elongate concavity complementing the elongate convex surface of the inclination component; anda spherical head including means for setting and fixing a radial offset, wherein the humeral stem interfaces with the coupling adapter via said elongated inclination component, and the coupling adapter interfaces with the spherical head; providing the humeral prosthetic within a patient's humerus; attaching soft tissue to the humeral prosthetic by employing the first and second plurality of eyelets; passing first sutures through the first plurality of eyelets; passing second sutures through the second plurality of eyelets; implanting the humeral prosthetic into the patient's humerus, so that the stem interfaces with the coupling adapter, and the coupling adapter interfaces with the spherical head; placing the second sutures through a medial aspect of the soft tissue in a direction from superior to inferior; and tying the first sutures with the second sutures to compress the soft tissue. |
