Polyethylene liner dissociation from humeral tray: impediment to closed reduction of dislocated reverse total shoulder replacement

Dissociation of polyethylene liner from the humeral tray can be associated with an RTSA dislocation and is a contraindication for CR. A radiographic finding of the metallic humeral tray articulating directly with the glenosphere is an indication that the polyethylene liner is dissociated from the humeral tray.
