Study population: Each investigator will screen from his/her patients who suffer from Osteoarthritis, Rheumatoid arthritis, Post-traumatic arthritis, Ununited humeral head fracture, Irreducible 3- and 4-part proximal humeral fractures, Avascular necrosis who meet the inclusion/exclusion criteria stated in the protocol.

Brief summary: The objectives of this study are to obtain survival and outcome data on the Trabecular Metal Humeral Stem when used in primary, total or hemi shoulder arthroplasty.

Detailed description: The objectives of this study are to obtain survival and outcome data on the Trabecular Metal Humeral Stem when used in primary, total or hemi shoulder arthroplasty. This will be done by analysis of standard scoring systems, radiographs and adverse event records. Data will be collected and analyzed to monitor pain, function, and survivorship and to confirm the performance of the Trabecular Metal Humeral Stem.

Performance will be evaluated by monitoring the frequency and incidence of adverse events as well as by assessment of the overall pain and functional performances, survivorship, health status and radiographic parameters of all enrolled study subjects who receive the Trabecular Metal Humeral Stem.

Pain and functional performance will be measured using the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) Shoulder Assessment and the Single Assessment Numeric Evaluation (SANE), survivorship will be based on removal or intended removal of the device, health status will be determined by evaluation of the SF-12 as well as AEs and radiographic parameters by analysis of x-rays.
