What is it indicated for?

The BUECHEL-PAPPAS™ Modular Salvage Shoulder Replacement System is intended for the reconstruction of painful and/or severely disabled shoulder joints resulting from osteoarthritis, rheumatiod arthritis, traumatic arthritis, avascular necrosis, or previously failed prosthesis; for use in the absence of a functionally sufficient rotator cuff as well as where the proximal humerus is insufficient to support a standard angled humeral prosthesis. Biocoat® porous coated components are intended for cemented use.

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA 510(k) statement, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
