Dynamic Anterior Stabilization Using the Long Head of the Biceps for Anteroinferior Glenohumeral Instability.

ABSTRACT: Anteroinferior glenohumeral instability can be treated by variants of the Bankart repair, remplissage, and the Latarjet procedure, although all options remain associated with complications, including recurrence, stiffness, persistent pain, apprehension, and dislocation arthropathy. The authors therefore thought of a concept of dynamic anterior stabilization to treat anteroinferior glenohumeral instability by transferring the long head of the biceps within a subscapularis split to the anterior glenoid margin, thereby creating a "sling effect" by using a conservative technique. A standard Bankart repair is then to re-establish the labral damper effect. The main benefit of the dynamic anterior stabilization procedure is that it grants the "sling effect," but is easier and safer than arthroscopic Latarjet. It does not require screws nor traction of the coracoid process, and should therefore reduce the risks of neurologic damage. Furthermore, the procedure can be performed with only 3 small incisions, because it does not require coracoid transfer, which eliminates risks of nerve dissection, graft overhang, and cortical resorption, hence reducing the probability for dislocation arthroplasty. Lastly, the pectoralis minor remains intact, which would avoid scapular dyskinesis.

Project description:PurposeTo report the results of the onlay dynamic anterior stabilization (DAS) using the long head of biceps (LHB) and the double double-pulley technique for the treatment of anterior glenohumeral instability (AGI) with ≤20% glenoid bone loss (GBL).MethodsFrom September 2018 to December 2021, patients with AGI and ≤20% GBL were enrolled in a prospective study on DAS and followed for a minimum of 1 year. The primary outcomes were Western Ontario Shoulder Instability Index, Rowe score, range of motion, and strength. The secondary outcomes were ability to return to play (RTP), RTP at same level, lack of recurrence of instability, successful LHB healing, and lack of complications. Magnetic resonance imaging was used to measure GBL, Hill-Sachs interval, glenoid track, and assess LHB integrity.ResultsEighteen consecutive patients underwent DAS. Fifteen patients had a minimum follow-up of 12 months (mean, 23.93 ± 13.67 months). In total, 12 were male and 3 female patients; 73.3% practiced recreational sports; mean age at surgery was 23.40 ± 6.53 years; mean number of dislocation episodes were 10.13 ± 8.42; mean GBL was 8.21 ± 7.39% (range, 0-20.24%); mean Hill-Sachs interval was 15.00 ± 2.96 mm; and mean glenoid track was 18.87 ± 2.57mm. The mean improvement in the Western Ontario Shoulder Instability Index and Rowe score (959.27 ± 386.70 and 74.00 ± 22.22 points) was significant (P < .001 and P < .001) and more than 6 times greater than the minimum clinically important difference. The mean improvement in active elevation, abduction, and external and internal rotation (23.00 ± 27.76°, 33.33 ± 43.78°, 8.33 ± 13.58°, and 0.73 ± 1.28 points) was significant (P = .006, P = .011, P = .032, and P = .044). RTP rate was 93.33%. RTP at same level was 60.00%. One patient with hyperlaxity had a redislocation (6.7% recurrence). No complications were reported. Each magnetic resonance imaging scan showed successful LHB healing to the anterior glenoid.ConclusionsAt a minimum of 1-year follow-up, DAS produces significant and clinically important improvements in shoulder function, successful LHB healing, and is safe for the treatment of AGI with ≤20% GBL without severe hyperlaxity.Level of evidenceIV, therapeutic case series.

Project description:PurposeTo assess independent predictors of surgery after an emergency department visit for shoulder instability, including patient-related and socioeconomic factors.MethodsPatients presenting to the emergency department were identified in the New York Statewide Planning and Research Cooperative System database from 2015 to 2018 by International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification diagnosis codes for anterior shoulder dislocation or subluxation. All shoulder stabilization procedures in the outpatient setting were identified using Current Procedural Terminology codes (23455, 23460, 23462, 23466, and 29806). A multivariable logistic regression was performed to assess the impact of patient factors on the likelihood of receiving surgery. The variables included in the analysis were age, sex, race, social deprivation, Charlson Comorbidity Index, recurrent dislocation, and primary insurance type.ResultsIn total, 16,721 patients with a shoulder instability diagnosis were included in the analysis and 1,028 (6.1%) went on to have surgery. Patients <18 years old (odds ratio [OR] 8.607, P < .0001), those with recurrent dislocations (OR 2.606, P < .0001), or worker's compensation relative to private insurance (OR 1.318, P = .0492) had increased odds of receiving surgery. Hispanic (OR 0.711, P = .003) and African American (OR 0.63, P < .0001) patients had decreased odds of surgery compared with White patients. Patients with Medicaid (OR 0.582, P < .0001) or self-pay (OR 0.352, P < .0001) insurance had decreased odds of undergoing surgery relative to privately insured patients. Patients with greater levels of social deprivation (OR 0.993, P < .0001) also were associated with decreased odds of surgery.ConclusionsAnterior glenohumeral instability and subsequent stabilization surgery is associated with disparities among patient race, primary insurance, and social deprivation.Clinical relevanceConsidering the relationship between differential care and health disparities, it is critical to define and increase physician awareness of these disparities to help ensure equitable care.

Project description:BackgroundFew studies have described the characteristics of a concealed intratendinous subscapularis tear (CIST), and there is a lack of research on the preoperative predictability of such lesions.PurposeTo describe the characteristics of a CIST as seen on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and intraoperatively and to develop a scoring system for predicting such lesions.Study designCase series; Level of evidence, 4.MethodsRetrospectively, we identified 43 patients with CISTs among 442 consecutive patients who had undergone rotator cuff repair from July 2014 to June 2016. Range of motion, visual analog scale results for pain and function, and patient-reported outcome scores were evaluated preoperatively and at 1 and 2 years postoperatively. CISTs were classified arthroscopically as small (<5 mm), medium (5-10 mm), and large (>10 mm). We performed repair (≥50%) or debridement (<50%) depending on the total subscapularis tendon tear size including the CIST. Preoperative MRI findings were analyzed by 2 observers and were correlated with the arthroscopic findings. A 10-point scoring system was developed based on characteristics during the physical examination (anterior tenderness, bear hug sign), MRI (biceps tendon displacement and subluxation, subscapularis signal change just lateral to the lesser tuberosity), and arthroscopic surgery (medial biceps tendon lesion, combined subscapularis tendon tear), with a cutoff value of ≥7 predicting a CIST. After the retrospective study, we prospectively enrolled 95 patients to validate the 10-point CIST scoring system.ResultsAll 43 patients diagnosed with a CIST during the retrospective study improved both range of motion and functional scores at 1 year postoperatively. The interrater agreement of the 2 observers was substantial for the evaluation of all parameters except for subscapularis tear classification, which was moderate. On arthroscopic surgery, 11 small, 19 medium, and 13 large CISTs were detected. The preliminary prospective study showed a sensitivity of 61.9%, specificity of 94.3%, positive predictive value of 89.0%, negative predictive value of 75.7%, and accuracy of 80.0% when the cutoff value was set at ≥7 on the CIST scoring system.ConclusionA CIST can be suspected using a combination of preoperative MRI and intra-articular diagnostic arthroscopic findings, but a definitive diagnosis requires an arthroscopic view. On the 10-point CIST scoring system, a score of ≥5 can be suggestive of a CIST, and a score of ≥7 is most likely to predict a CIST.
