Modular reverse shoulder orthopaedic implant and method of implanting the same

A method of surgically repairing a proximal fracture of a patient's humerus, the method comprising:

• rotating a locking screw to secure an elongated humeral stem component to a fracture epiphysis component, the fracture epiphysis component including a body having an annular rim at a superior end of the body, an annular suture collar extending outwardly from the annular rim, and a plurality of suture holes extending through a superior surface of the annular suture collar and an inferior surface of the annular suture collar,
• implanting the humeral stem component into an intramedullary canal of the patient's humerus,
• advancing a first suture through a humeral shaft of the patient's humerus, through a first suture hole of the plurality of suture holes extending through the annular suture collar of the fracture epiphysis component, and through a patient's rotator cuff proximate a greater tuberosity of the patient's humerus,
• advancing a second suture through the humeral shaft of the patient's humerus, through a second suture hole of the plurality of suture holes extending through the annular suture collar of the fracture epiphysis component, and through the patient's rotator cuff proximate a lessor tuberosity of the patient's humerus, and
• advancing a third suture through a third suture hole located in a suture pocket on an outer inferior surface of the fracture epiphysis component, through the greater tuberosity of the patient's humerus, and through the lessor tuberosity of the patient's humerus.
