Mid-term results of a stemless ceramic on polyethylene shoulder prosthesis - A prospective multicentre study.


ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Early reports of stemless shoulder arthroplasty have shown promising clinical and radiological outcomes. The purpose of this study was to report on the mid-term results of an implant that utilises a ceramic humeral head.

Methods

A prospective, consecutive, multicentre study of stemless shoulder prosthesis with a minimum of four years of follow-up was conducted between August 2009 and May 2012. The adjusted Constant-Murley Score (CMS), revision rate and presence of radiolucent lines were recorded at intervals.

Results

A total of 207 patients were eligible for study inclusion; 62.8% were female and mean age was 64.8 years (range 30-86). Mean follow-up was 70.7 months (range 48-100), 73% underwent TSA and 27% hemiarthroplasty. The mean CMS improvement was 42.6 (p < 0.0001) at 48 months. Radiolucencies were present in 2.7% of humeral zones and 14% of glenoid zones at 48-month follow-up. The revision rate was 6.3% with rotator cuff failure (2.9%) the most common indication.

Conclusions

Mid-term results demonstrate that the studied stemless implant with a ceramic humeral head had clinical and radiological outcomes that are comparable to other reported studies.
