Latarjet operation carries three times the risk of failure in seizure versus non-seizure recurrent anterior dislocation of the shoulder joint: outcome of a systematic review with meta-analysis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation (RASD) in cases of seizure disorders (SDs) total 50%-80% of all SD-associated shoulder instabilities. Based on the extent of bone loss, treatment options include bony and soft-tissue reconstructions, arthroplasty, and arthrodesis. The primary objective of this paper was to review the treatment options for RASD in SDs. METHODS Several bibliographic databases were searched for RASD treatment options in SD patients. The demographic outcome measures, the failure rate (defined as the relative risk of recurrence of dislocation postoperation), and the postoperative seizure recurrence rate were recorded. RESULTS We pooled 171 cases (187 shoulders) from 11 studies. Of these, one, five, two, two, and one reports studied Bankart's operation with remplissage (27 cases/29 shoulders), the Latarjet procedure (106/118), bone block operation (21/23), arthroplasty (11/11), and arthrodesis (6/6), respectively, in treating SD-associated RASD. The relative risk of failure between SD and non-SD patients was 3.76 (1.3610.38) after the Latarjet operation. The failure rates were 17% and 13% for Bankart's operation with remplissage and the Latarjet procedure in SD patients, respectively, but 0% each for bone block operation, arthroplasty, and arthrodesis. The total rate of seizure recurrence after operation was 33% of the pooled cases. CONCLUSIONS SD recurrence in the postoperative period, the size of the bone block, and the muscular attachments to a small coracoid autograft are the determinants of failure among various reconstructive operations in SD-associated RASD. Level of evidence: III.

Epidemiology and specific features of shoulder injuries in patients affected by epileptic seizures. Arch Orthop Trauma Surg 2023; 143:1999-2009. [PMID: 35347411 PMCID: PMC10030428 DOI: 10.1007/s00402-022-04420-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/10/2021] [Accepted: 03/09/2022] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE Epileptic seizures can cause multiple shoulder injuries, the most common of which are dislocations, recurrent instability, fractures, and isolated lesions of the rotator cuff. Currently, only limited literature exists which describes the frequency and types of lesions in cohorts of epileptic patients and the corresponding treatment outcome. This study aims to document the occurrence of shoulder lesions in patients affected by seizures and to provide detailed information on trauma dynamics, specific lesion characteristics and treatment complications. METHODS All patients referring to a tertiary epilepsy center were screened for shoulder injuries and the clinical records of those sustaining them during a seizure were reviewed. Demographic information, lesions' characteristics and trauma dynamics were analysed, as wells as-when carried out-the type of surgical intervention and any postoperative complications. RESULTS The average age at the time of injury of 106 included patients was 39.7 ± 17.5 years and a male predominance was recorded (65%). Bilateral injuries occurred in 29 patients, simultaneously in 17 cases. A younger age, bilateral shoulder injuries and shoulder dislocations were significantly associated with the occurrence of a shoulder injury solely by muscular activation (p = 0.0054, p = 0.011, p < 0.0001). The complication rate in 57 surgically treated patients with follow-up data was 38.7%, with recurring instability being the most frequently reported complication (62.5%). CONCLUSIONS Uncontrolled muscle activation during a seizure is a distinctive but not exclusive dynamic of injury in epileptic patients, accounting for more than the half of all shoulder lesions, especially in the younger. This can lead both to anterior and posterior dislocations or fracture-dislocations and is frequently cause of bilateral lesions and of instability recurrence after surgery. The high complication rates after surgical treatment in this selected subgroup of patients require that appropriate preventative measures are taken to increase the probability of treatment success. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Cohort study, level III.
