Centre of Rotation (COR) is from the centre of the humeral head. It gets medial and inferior (COŔ) after reverse total shoulder arthroplasty. Thereby the lateral lever arm gets effective by the pull of the deltoid. (agt&agt́ are the distance between acromion process and the greater tuberosity where agt́ >agt), (d & d́ are the distance of deltoid tuberosity from acromion process where d́ > d), (h and h́ are width of the diaphysis of the humerus at the level of deltoid insertion).
