Management of humeral head deficiencies and glenoid track.

ABSTRACT: When considering the management of shoulder anterior instability with glenoid bone loss ?25 % of the inferior glenoid diameter (inverted-pear glenoid), the consensus among recent authors is that glenoid bone grafting should be done. Although the engaging Hill-Sachs lesion has been recognized as a risk factor for recurrent anterior instability, there has been no generally accepted methodology for quantifying the Hill-Sachs lesion taking into account the geometric interplay of various sizes and various orientations of bipolar (humeral-sided plus glenoid-sided) bone loss. Keeping the glenoid track concept in mind, if a Hill-Sachs lesion engages the anterior glenoid rim, with or without concomitant anterior glenoid bone loss, it is possible to manage this pathology, reducing the risk of recurrent shoulder instability after surgery. If the Hill-Sachs engages, "Remplissage" or "Latarjet" surgical procedures are indicated depending of glenoid bone loss.

Project description:PurposeTo measure bony morphologic parameters and identify their association with arthroscopic Bankart repair failure.MethodsThis was a retrospective comparative study. The inclusion criteria were primary arthroscopic Bankart repair, no prior shoulder surgery, traumatic cause, and had a Bankart (soft tissue and bony) lesion evident on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The exclusion criteria were posterior labral pathology, multidirectional instability, connective tissue disorder, rotator cuff pathology, and those who underwent concomitant shoulder procedures. Patients who had a postoperative redislocation (unstable group) were compared with matched patients who did not (stable group). Data were obtained by chart review and from preoperative MRI. Comparisons were made using the Student t test, Fisher exact test, or χ2 test. Statistical significance was defined as P < .05. Inter-rater reliability was measured between reviewers.ResultsA total of 45 patients experienced a postoperative dislocation and were matched to 90 patients without a postoperative dislocation. There were no differences in demographic and radiographic variables. The radius of curvature (ROC) of the glenoid was larger (shallower) in the unstable group (23.6 mm vs 22.6 mm, P = .05). The humeral head volume (HHV) trended higher in the unstable group (68.9 mL vs 62.9 mL, P = .06). The glenoid volume was not significantly different. A greater percentage of patients with a glenoid ROC of 24.5 mm or greater (62.1% vs 26.4%, P = .0003) and an HHV of 80 mm3 or greater (60.8% vs 28.9%, P = .003) experienced a redislocation compared with patients without these factors. Patients with a glenoid ROC of 24.5 mm or more and an HHV of 80 mm3 or more had greater than 4 times the odds of redislocation (odds ratio, 4.56; 95% confidence interval, 1.44-14.43; P = .0098). Strong inter-rater reliability was found for the HHV, glenoid volume, glenoid ROC, and humeral head ROC measurements (r = 0.94, r = 0.88, r = 0.89, and r = 0.95, respectively).ConclusionsThis study shows that large ROC (shallow) glenoids in conjunction with large humeral heads may predispose patients to failure after arthroscopic Bankart repair.Level of evidenceLevel III, retrospective comparative trial.

Project description:BackgroundHumeral head inferior subluxation often occurs immediately after osteosynthesis for proximal humeral fracture; however, the underlying cause remains largely unknown. In addition, the prognosis of postoperative inferior subluxation has not been fully investigated. This study aimed to clarify the predictive factors that affected the onset of postoperative inferior subluxation using multivariate analysis and examine the postoperative course of inferior subluxation and its influence on postoperative outcomes.MethodsWe retrospectively reviewed 212 patients who underwent osteosynthesis for Neer 2- or 3-part proximal humeral fractures. In the multivariate analysis, the dependent variable was set as the inferior subluxation observed 1 week after the surgery. The explanatory variables included age, sex, affected side, body mass index, smoking, local osteoporosis, preoperative axillary nerve injury, time from injury to surgery, fracture dislocation, fracture pattern, preoperative inferior subluxation, surgical procedure, surgical approaches, blood loss, operative time, and postoperative drainage. Baseline variables, which were observed to be significant in the univariate analysis, were included in multivariate models. Furthermore, based on the presence of inferior subluxation at 1 week after the surgery, we divided the patients into two groups: with inferior subluxation (+IS group) and without inferior subluxation (-IS group). We compared the postoperative outcomes (incidence of postoperative complications and range of motion) between these two groups.ResultsOf 212 patients, 64 (30.7%) experienced inferior subluxation at 1 week after the surgery. On multivariate analyses, preoperative inferior subluxation (odds ratio = 4.69; 95% confidence interval = 2.45-9.76; P < .001) and longer operative time (odds ratio = 1.01; 95% confidence interval = 1.00-1.02; P = .049) were the risk factors for postoperative inferior subluxation. In the +IS group, inferior subluxation resolved at 1 year after the surgery in 89.5% of patients. There was no significant difference in the postoperative outcome between the +IS and -IS groups. However, four of six patients with persistent inferior subluxation, more than 6 months after the surgery, experienced complications, such as varus angulation of the humeral head or screw joint perforation.ConclusionsThis study provides new information on the risk factors for and prognosis of postosteosynthesis inferior subluxation in patients with proximal humeral fracture. Longer operative time and presence of preoperative inferior subluxation was associated with an increased risk of postoperative inferior subluxation, although it was temporary in most cases, and had no significant influence on the postoperative outcomes. However, in patients with persistent inferior subluxation of more than 6 months duration, inferior subluxation may be related to postoperative complications.
