The purpose of this study is to investigate if the use of autologous bone graft around the anchor-peg glenoid prosthesis correlates with (1.) bony apposition on computed tomography scans, (2.) decreased radiolucent lines, (3.) a decrease in component loosening, and (4.) better functional outcomes. Investigators hypothesize that a glenoid anchor peg component fixation utilizing autologous bone graft in Total Shoulder Arthroplasty (TSA) will have a lower incidence of glenoid loosening and that the absence of radiolucent lines will correlate with excellent shoulder function. Glenoid component loosening remains a major concern following total shoulder arthroplasty and is the man reason for failure. Despite positive findings in the investigators previous study (same population at a minimum of 2 year post operative follow up), it is reasonable that loosening rates could increase with longer follow-up. This study will be a minimum of 7 year post operative follow up.
