    Stemless anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty (aTSA) is a promising option for the treatment of degenerative disease in patients. This novel technique avoids the stem-related complications associated with the traditional stemmed aTSA. Stemless aTSA offers additional benefits such as decreased operative time, preservation of bone stock, improved radiographic outcomes, and easier revision. Moreover, loading of the metaphyseal region rather than the diaphysial region with traditional stemmed implants can decrease stress shielding. When compared to stemmed-implants, stemless aTSA has demonstrated similar outcomes and complication rates. The purpose of this article is to analyze published outcomes and complications following the utilization of stemless aTSA. Additionally, key aspects of the surgical technique that may promote optimal results in stemless aTSA implantation are presented.
