Conjoint Tendon Resection During Reverse Total Shoulder Arthroplasty

For conjoint tendon resection in the experimental group, the conjoint tendon will be released completely via a transverse incision made at a level 2 cm distal to the coracoid process for the patients assigned the conjoint resection group. Electrocautery will be used for the resection, and the underlying muscular portion of the conjoint tendon will be preserved.
