A case of a patient with glenohumeral joint arthritis is presented which demonstrated the three‐dimensional shoulder motion before and after total shoulder arthroplasty. Pre‐operative shoulder motion differed compared to normal controls, while post‐operatively her glenohumeral‐to‐scapulothoracic motion ratios were restored to near normal ratios.
