The Effect of Inhomogeneous Trabecular Stiffness Relationship Selection on Finite Element Outcomes for Shoulder Arthroplasty

In conclusion, the low varia tions attributable to the selection of a trabecular stiffness relationship based on anatomic-site suggest that FE models constructed for shoulder arthroplasty can utilize an inhomogeneous site-pooled trabecular relationship without inducing marked variability in the assessed outcome measures.
