Eur J Radiol 2024; 177:111588. [PMID: 38944907 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejrad.2024.111588] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/19/2024] [Revised: 05/28/2024] [Accepted: 06/24/2024] [Indexed: 07/02/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To develop and validate an open-source deep learning model for automatically quantifying scapular and glenoid morphology using CT images of normal subjects and patients with glenohumeral osteoarthritis. MATERIALS AND METHODS First, we used deep learning to segment the scapula from CT images and then to identify the location of 13 landmarks on the scapula, 9 of them to establish a coordinate system unaffected by osteoarthritis-related changes, and the remaining 4 landmarks on the glenoid cavity to determine the glenoid size and orientation in this scapular coordinate system. The glenoid version, glenoid inclination, critical shoulder angle, glenopolar angle, glenoid height, and glenoid width were subsequently measured in this coordinate system. A 5-fold cross-validation was performed to evaluate the performance of this approach on 60 normal/non-osteoarthritic and 56 pathological/osteoarthritic scapulae. RESULTS The Dice similarity coefficient between manual and automatic scapular segmentations exceeded 0.97 in both normal and pathological cases. The average error in automatic scapular and glenoid landmark positioning ranged between 1 and 2.5 mm and was comparable between the automatic method and human raters. The automatic method provided acceptable estimates of glenoid version (R2 = 0.95), glenoid inclination (R2 = 0.93), critical shoulder angle (R2 = 0.95), glenopolar angle (R2 = 0.90), glenoid height (R2 = 0.88) and width (R2 = 0.94). However, a significant difference was found for glenoid inclination between manual and automatic measurements (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS This open-source deep learning model enables the automatic quantification of scapular and glenoid morphology from CT scans of patients with glenohumeral osteoarthritis, with sufficient accuracy for clinical use.

Abstract
Objective To evaluate the interobserver agreement in the measurement of anatomical parameters of the shoulder using manual methods of two-dimensional (2D) computed tomography (CT) unformatted in the plane of the scapula and to compare them with the automated measurement obtained through the Blueprint (Wright Medical, Memphis, TN, United States) software, which uses reconstructed three-dimensional (3D) images. Methods The present is a cross-sectional study in which 2D CT images of 38 patients with different diagnoses were used. The anatomical parameters were measured by the manual methods described by Friedman et al., the glenoid vault method, the Maurer et al. method, and shoulder subluxation according to Walch et al., by five independent qualified surgeons and compared with the parameters obtained through the Blueprint automated software. Results Significant differences were found between the manual measurement version obtained through the Friedman et al. method and the automated version. The mean values found for inclination did not show statistically significant differences among the methods. The mean value found for subluxation showed significant differences between the average observed in the analyses performed by the automated method and those performed by the surgeons. Conclusion The manual measurements of glenoid version and inclination performed by experienced surgeons are effective, and the vault method is superior to the Friedman et al. method in the analysis of severe glenoid deformities.

Finite element analysis part 1 of 2: Influence of short stem implant polyethylene configuration on glenohumeral joint biomechanics. J Exp Orthop 2024; 11:e70000.

Abstract
Purpose Stress shielding in short-stem arthroplasty can cause critical metaphyseal bone loss. If the size and shape of the humeral shaft are important factors, it is unknown whether the shape of the polyethylene component in reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) affects bone stress around or within the stem. We explored the impact of polyethylene shape on humeral and scapular stress distribution using a finite element model. Methods We developed a shoulder-specific finite element model. A defined set of muscle forces was applied to simulate movements. An intact rotator cuff state and a superior deficient rotator cuff state were modelled. We used the FX V135 short stem in three conditions: total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA), and RSA with symmetrical and asymmetrical polyethylene (145°/135°). We measured biomechanical markers related to bone stress for different implant sizes. Joint kinematics and the mechanical behaviour of the implant were compared. Results Rupture of the supraspinatus muscle produced a functionally limited shoulder. The placement of an anatomic TSA with an intact rotator cuff restored function similar to that of a healthy shoulder. RSA in the rotator cuff-deficient shoulder restored function regardless of stem size and polyethylene shape. While stem size had an impact on the stress distribution in the bone and implant, it did not show significant potential for increasing or decreasing overall stress. For the same stem, stress distribution at the humerus is different between TSA and RSA. Polyethylene shape did not alter the transmission of stress to the bone in RSA. Asymmetric polyethylene produced a greater abduction range of motion. Conclusions In terms of bone stress distribution, smaller stems seemed more appropriate for TSA, while larger stems may be more appropriate for RSA. Polyethylene shape resulted in different ranges of motion but did not influence bone stress. Level of Evidence Diagnostic Tests or Criteria; Level IV.

Abstract
Purpose Our purpose was to quantify stresses in the bone surrounding stemless implants in various configurations. Methods A detailed finite element model of the glenohumeral joint was used to simulate abduction kinematics before and after arthroplasty and to measure bone stresses around the implants. Two digital patients were simulated: one healthy and one with supraspinatus muscle impairment (deficiency). Two anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) configurations were placed in a 135° cutting plane. Two reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) configurations with cutting angles of 135° and 145° were simulated with asymmetrical and symmetrical polyethylene cups, respectively, to obtain humeral neck-shaft angles of 145°. Results Compared with preoperative models, TSA preserved and RSA restored abduction kinematics. The bone mechanical stresses were located mainly around the central stud of the TSA and were more peripheral to the RSA humeral components. The RSA configuration with the 145° cutting angle and symmetrical cup generated the lowest maximal bone stress and bone volume involvement. Stresses in the scapular cortical bone were highest in the supraspinatus fossa for TSA and the crest of the acromion for RSA. Conclusion Early stability and glenohumeral bone stress change with implant configuration and should not be extrapolated from anatomic clinical data to reverse configurations. Level of Evidence Diagnostic tests or criteria; Level IV.

A scapular statistical shape model can reliably predict premorbid glenoid morphology in conditions of severe glenoid bone loss. J Shoulder Elbow Surg 2024:S1058-2746(24)00359-8.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Knowledge of premorbid glenoid parameters at the time of shoulder arthroplasty, such as inclination, version, joint line position, height, and width, can assist with implant selection, implant positioning, metal augment sizing, and/or bone graft dimensions. The objective of this study was to validate a scapular statistical shape model (SSM) in predicting patient-specific glenoid morphology in scapulae with clinically relevant glenoid erosion patterns. METHODS Computed tomography scans of 30 healthy scapulae were obtained and used as the control group. Each scapula was then virtually eroded to create 7 erosion patterns (Walch A1, A2, B2, B3, D, Favard E2, and E3). This resulted in 210 uniquely eroded glenoid models, forming the eroded glenoid group. A scapular SSM, created from a different database of 85 healthy scapulae, was then applied to each eroded scapula to predict the premorbid glenoid morphology. The premorbid glenoid inclination, version, height, width, radius of best-fit sphere, and glenoid joint line position were automatically calculated for each of the 210 eroded glenoids. The mean values for all outcome variables were compared across all erosion types between the healthy, eroded, and SSM-predicted groups using a 2-way repeated measures analysis of variance. RESULTS The SSM was able to predict the mean premorbid glenoid parameters of the eroded glenoids with a mean absolute difference of 3° ± 2° for inclination, 3° ± 2° for version, 2 ± 1 mm for glenoid height, 2 ± 1 mm for glenoid width, 5 ± 4 mm for radius of best-fit sphere, and 1 ± 1 mm for glenoid joint line. The mean SSM-predicted values for inclination, version, height, width, and radius were not significantly different than the control group (P > .05). DISCUSSION An SSM has been developed that can reliably predict premorbid glenoid morphology and glenoid indices in patients with common glenoid erosion patterns. This technology can serve as a useful template to visually represent the premorbid healthy glenoid in patients with severe glenoid bony erosions. Knowledge of the premorbid glenoid preoperatively can assist with implant selection, positioning, and sizing.

Abstract
When developing educational simulators, meaningful haptic feedback is important. To our knowledge, no shoulder arthroplasty surgical simulator exists. This study focuses on simulating vibration haptics of glenoid reaming for shoulder arthroplasty using a novel glenoid reaming simulator. Methods We validated a novel custom simulator constructed using a vibration transducer transmitting simulated reaming vibrations to a powered nonwearing reamer tip through a 3D-printed glenoid. Validation and system fidelity were evaluated by 9 fellowship-trained shoulder surgeon experts performing a series of simulated reamings. We then completed the validation process through a questionnaire focused on experts' experience with the simulator. Results Experts correctly identified 52% ± 8% of surface profiles and 69% ± 21% of cartilage layers. Experts identified the vibration interface between simulated cartilage and subchondral bone (77% ± 23% of the time), indicating high fidelity for the system. An interclass correlation coefficient for experts' reaming to the subchondral plate was 0.682 (confidence interval 0.262-0.908). On a general questionnaire, the perceived utility of the simulator as a teaching tool was highly ranked (4/5), and experts scored "ease of instrument manipulation" (4.19/5) and "realism of the simulator" (4.11/5) the highest. The mean global evaluation score was 6.8/10 (range 5-10). Conclusions We examined a simulated glenoid reamer and feasibility of haptic vibrational feedback for training. Experts validated simulated vibration feedback for glenoid simulation reaming, and the results suggested that this may be a useful additional training adjuvant. Level of Evidence Level II, prospective study.

Software Update May Modify Glenoid Version, Glenoid Inclination and Humeral Head Subluxation Values. J Clin Med 2023; 12:jcm12072620. [PMID: 37048703 PMCID: PMC10094783 DOI: 10.3390/jcm12072620] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/13/2023] [Revised: 03/16/2023] [Accepted: 03/28/2023] [Indexed: 04/03/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the impact of software updating on measurements of the glenoid inclination and version, along with humeral head subluxation performed by an automated 3D planning program. The hypothesis was that the software update could significantly modify the values of the glenoid inclination and version, as well as of the humeral head subluxation. Methods: A comprehensive pool of 76 shoulder computed tomography (CT) scans of patients who underwent total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) or reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (RTSA) were analyzed with the automated program Blueprint in 2018 and again in 2020 after a software update. Results: A statistically significant difference of 8.1 ± 8.2 and 5.4 ± 7.8 (mean difference of −2.8 ± 5.0, p < 0.001) was indeed reached when comparing the mean glenoid inclination achieved with Blueprint 2018 and Blueprint 2020, respectively. The glenoid version, as well as the humeral head subluxation evaluations, were not significantly different between the two software versions, with mean values being −9.4 ± 8.9 and −9.0 ± 7.4 and 60.1 ± 12.6 and 61.8 ± 12.0, respectively (p = 0.708 and p = 0.115, respectively). In 22% of CT scans, the software update determined a variation of the glenoid inclination of more than 5° or 10°. Conclusion: The present study shows the software update of an automated preoperative planning program may significantly modify the values of glenoid inclination. Even though without a significant difference, variations were also found for the glenoid version and humeral head subluxation. Accordingly, these results should further advise surgeons to carefully and critically evaluate data acquired with automated software.

Abstract
Variations among methods to measure glenoid version have created uncertainty regarding which method provides the most consistent measurements of morphology. Greater deformity may also make accurate depiction of the native morphology more challenging. This study examined 4 current methods (Friedman, corrected Friedman, Ganapathi-Iannotti, and Matsumura) and an experimental scapular border-derived coordinate system method, to compare measurement inconsistencies between methods and reference systems and assess the impact of glenoid deformity on measured glenoid version. Methods Three-dimensional scapulae were created from computed tomography (CT) scans of 74 shoulders that had undergone arthroplasty (28 A2, 22 B2, 10 B3, and 14 C glenoids) and 34 shoulders that had not undergone arthroplasty. Glenoid version measurements were made in Mimics using the 4 methods. For the experimental method, scapulae were reconstructed, and 3 orthogonal global coordinate planes (GCPs) were derived from the medial and lateral borders. Version was measured as the angle between the sagittal reference plane and an anterior-posterior glenoid vector. The intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) was calculated for the Friedman and corrected Friedman methods. Inconsistencies were assessed for all methods using the interquartile range, mean and standard deviation, and repeated-measures analysis of variance. Concordance correlation coefficients (CCCs) were calculated to assess agreement among the methods. Results Scapular plane-based methods (experimental, Friedman, and corrected Friedman) yielded an average version between -10° and -12°, with average measurement differences among these methods of <2°. Vault methods (Ganapathi-Iannotti and Matsumura) overestimated or underestimated version by an average of 5° to 7° compared with scapular plane-based methods, and showed significant differences of >12° when compared with each other. Scapular plane-based methods maintained consistency with increasing deformity. Conclusions The other methods of version measurement using the scapular planes as the reference were highly comparable with the corrected Friedman method. However, when the reference plane was the glenoid vault, version measurements were inconsistent with scapular plane-based methods, which is attributed to differences in the reference systems. In surgical planning, the coordinate system utilized will impact version measurements, which can result in variations in the planned surgical solutions. Additionally, as glenoid deformity increases, this variation resulting from the utilization of different coordinate systems is magnified.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Excessive version and inclination of the glenoid component during total shoulder arthroplasty can lead to glenohumeral instability, early loosening, and even failure. The orientation and position of the central pin determine the version and inclination of the glenoid component. The purpose of this study was to compare the differences in centerline position and orientation obtained using "3D preoperative planning based on the best-fit method for glenoid elements" and the surgeon's manipulation. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twenty-nine CT images of glenohumeral osteoarthritis of the shoulder were reconstructed into a 3D model, and a 3D printer was used to create an in vitro model for the surgeon to drill the center pin. The 3D shoulder model was also used for 3D preoperative planning (3DPP) using the best-fit method for glenoid elements. The in vitro model was scanned and the version, inclination and center position were measured to compare with the 3DPP results. RESULTS The respective mean inclinations (versions) of the surgeon and 3DPP were -2.63° ± 6.60 (2.87° ± 5.97) and -1.96° ± 4.24 (-3.21° ± 4.00), respectively. There was no significant difference in the inclination and version of the surgeon and 3DPP. For surgeons, the probability of the inclination and version being greater than 10° was 13.8% (4/29) and 10.3% (3/29), respectively. Compared to the 3DPP results, the surgeon's center position was shifted down an average of 1.63 mm. There was a significant difference in the center position of the surgeon and 3DPP (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION The central pin drilled by surgeons using general instruments was significantly lower than those defined using 3D preoperative planning and standard central definitions. 3D preoperative planning prevents the version and inclination of the centerline from exceeding safe values (± 10°).

Abstract
The success of total shoulder arthroplasty is dependent on both proper patient selection and restoration of the native anatomy. After proper patient selection, preoperative planning is essential to select implants that will allow the surgeon to properly restore soft-tissue tension and correct for deformity. Although it is possible to template implants with plain radiographs, these do not allow accurate measurements of the complex three-dimensional anatomy of the glenohumeral joint. CT can be used to further examine version of the glenoid and humerus, as well as humeral head subluxation. Three-dimensional reconstructions also allow for virtual implantation, resulting in a more reliable prediction of implant appearance. Commercial software is available that calculates parameters such as version; however, these have been shown to have variability when compared with measurements obtained by surgeons. Patient-specific instrumentation can also be obtained based on preoperative measurements; however, although it allowed for improved measurements when compared with two-dimensional imaging, there has been no difference in version error, inclination error, or positional offset of the glenoid implant when comparing patient-specific instrumentation with standard instrumentation. Intraoperative navigation can also be used to give real-time feedback on implant positioning; however, additional studies are needed to fully evaluate its benefit.

Abstract
Background The aim of our study was to evaluate the accuracy of manual determination of the three key points defining the anatomical plane of the scapula, which conditions the reliability of planning software programs based on manual method. Method We included 82 scapula computed tomography scans (56 pathologic and 26 normal glenoid), excluding truncation and major three-dimensional artifact. Four observers independently picked the three key points for each case. Inter- and intra-observer agreement was calculated for each point, using the intraclass correlation method. The mean error (mm) between the observers was calculated as the diameter of the smallest sphere including the four chosen positions. Results Lower inter-observer agreement was found for the trigonum superoinferior position and for the glenoid center anteroposterior position. The mean positioning error between the four observers was 6.9 mm for the trigonum point, and error greater than 10 mm was recorded in 25% of the cases. The mean positioning error was 3.5 mm for the glenoid center in altered glenoid, compared to 1.8 mm for normal glenoid. Discussion Manual determination of an anatomical plane of the scapula suffers from inaccuracy especially due to the variability in trigonum picking, and in a lesser extent, to the variability of glenoid center picking in altered glenoid.

The Effect of Glenoid Version on Glenohumeral Instability. J Am Acad Orthop Surg 2022; 30:e1165-e1178. [PMID: 36166388 DOI: 10.5435/jaaos-d-22-00148] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/09/2022] [Accepted: 06/01/2022] [Indexed: 02/01/2023] Open
Abstract
In recent years, an appreciation for the dynamic relationship between glenoid and humeral-sided bone loss and its importance to the pathomechanics of glenohumeral instability has substantially affected modern treatment algorithms. However, comparatively less attention has been paid to the influence of glenoid version on glenohumeral instability. Limited biomechanical data suggest that alterations in glenoid version may affect the forces necessary to destabilize the glenohumeral joint. However, this phenomenon has not been consistently corroborated by the results of clinical studies. Although increased glenoid retroversion may represent an independent risk factor for posterior glenohumeral instability, this relationship has not been reliably observed in the setting of anterior glenohumeral instability. Similarly, the effect of glenoid version on the failure rates of surgical stabilization procedures remains poorly understood.

Three-dimensional measures of posterior bone loss and retroversion in Walch B2 glenoids predict the need for an augmented anatomic glenoid component. J Shoulder Elbow Surg 2021; 30:2386-2392. [PMID: 33753274 DOI: 10.1016/j.jse.2021.02.023] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/10/2020] [Revised: 02/14/2021] [Accepted: 02/21/2021] [Indexed: 02/01/2023]
Abstract
HYPOTHESIS The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether the amount of measured posterior bone loss on 2- and 3-dimensional (2D and 3D) imaging of Walch B2 glenoids can reliably predict the plan for an augmented anatomic glenoid component. METHODS Patients with Walch B2 glenoids and preoperative computed tomography (CT) scans were retrospectively identified. 2D axial CT scans were reviewed and posterior bone loss was measured by 3 independent reviewers. Images were then formatted into BluePrint (Wright Medical) preoperative planning software. The same 3 reviewers again measured posterior bone loss on 3D imaging. Additionally, all cases were planned with BluePrint software. An augment was used when the following criteria were unable to be satisfied with standard implants: <10° retroversion, <10° superior inclination, ≥90% backside contact, <2 mm medial reaming, and ≤1 peg perforation. RESULTS Forty-two patients were included in the final analysis with a mean age of 63.1 ± 6.3 years. As measured by BluePrint, the mean retroversion was 23° ± 7° (range = 9°-40°), the mean superior inclination was 5° ± 6° (range = -9° to 22°), and the mean posterior subluxation was 80% ± 17% (range = 41%-95%). The mean 2D bone loss measurements (3.5 ± 1.6 mm) were significantly lower than the mean 3D bone loss (4.0 ± 1.8 mm) measurements (P = .03). There was substantial agreement between reviewers on both 2D and 3D measurements with an interclass correlation of 0.815 (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.714-0.889, P < .001) and an interclass correlation of 0.802 (95% CI 0.683-0.884, P < .001), respectively. Augments were used in 73.8%, 63.4%, and 63.4% of cases by reviewers 1, 2, and 3, respectively, with moderate agreement with a Fleiss kappa of 0.592 (95% CI 0.416-0.769, P < .001). Augment size was moderately, positively correlated with the amount of bone loss on 3D imaging but not with 2D imaging. After multivariate logistic regression, both 3D bone loss and retroversion were found to be predictive for a plan to use an augment. CONCLUSION Planning for a posterior augment in Walch B2 glenoids is better predicted with 3D imaging than with 2D imaging, as 2D imaging may underestimate posterior bone loss. Additionally, use of a larger augment size is moderately correlated with posterior bone loss on 3D imaging but not 2D imaging. Standard 2D imaging may be limited in cases of posterior bone loss, and 3D imaging may be beneficial for preoperative planning in Walch B2 glenoids.

Abstract
BACKGROUND An assessment of the pathoanatomic parameters of the arthritic glenohumeral joint (GHJ) has the potential to identify discriminating metrics to differentiate glenoid types in shoulders with primary glenohumeral osteoarthritis (PGHOA). The aim was to identify the morphometric differences and threshold values between glenoid types including normal and arthritic glenoids with the various types in the Walch classification. We hypothesized that there would be clear morphometric discriminators between the various glenoid types and that specific numeric threshold values would allow identification of each glenoid type. METHODS The computed tomography scans of 707 shoulders were analyzed: 585 obtained from shoulders with PGHOA and 122 from shoulders without glenohumeral pathology. Glenoid morphology was classified according to the Walch classification. All computed tomography scans were imported in a dedicated automatic 3D-software program that referenced measurements to the scapular body plane. Glenoid and humeral modeling was performed using the best-fit sphere method, and the root-mean-square error was calculated. The direction and orientation of the glenoid and humerus described glenohumeral relationships. RESULTS Among shoulders with PGHOA, 90% of the glenoids and 85% of the humeral heads were directed posteriorly in reference to the scapular body plane. Several discriminatory pathoanatomic parameters were identified: GHJ narrowing < 3 mm was a discriminatory metric for type A glenoids. Posterior humeral subluxation > 70% discriminated type B1 from normal GHJs. The root-mean-square error was a discriminatory metric to distinguish type B2 from type A, type B3, and normal GHJs. Type B3 glenoids differed from type A2 by greater retroversion (>13°) and subluxation (>71%). The type C glenoid retroversion inferior limit was 21°, whereas normal glenoids never presented with retroversion > 16°. CONCLUSION Pathoanatomic metrics with the identified threshold values can be used to discriminate glenoid types in shoulders with PGHOA.

An improved quantitative ultrasonographic technique could assess anterior translation of the glenohumeral joint accurately and reliably. Knee Surg Sports Traumatol Arthrosc 2021; 29:2595-2605.

Abstract
PURPOSE Since poor repeatability of the load and shift test using a grading scale has been reported, an objective and quantitative method to assess anterior translation should be established to assess glenohumeral joint function. The purpose of this study was to assess the accuracy and repeatability of the ultrasonographic techniques to quantify anterior translation of the glenohumeral joint. METHODS Eight fresh-frozen cadaveric shoulders were used. For the standard technique, the ultrasound transducer was positioned on the anterolateral aspect of the shoulder viewing the coracoid process, glenoid, and humeral head. For the revised technique, the transducer was positioned on the anterior aspect of the shoulder, perpendicular to the scapular plane, viewing the conjoint tendon, glenoid, and humeral head. During the load and shift test, the distance between anterior edges of the glenoid and the humeral head was measured. The difference between distances before and after applying an anterior load was calculated as an anterior translation and compared with the anterior translation assessed using a motion tracking system. The repeatability and accuracy of both techniques were analyzed statistically. RESULTS Intra- and inter-observer repeatability was good-excellent for both ultrasonographic techniques (ICC, 0.889-0.998). The revised technique achieved a stronger correlation to the anterior translations obtained using the motion tracking system (R = 0.810-0.913, p < 0.001) than the standard technique (R = 0.619-0.806, p < 0.001). CONCLUSION Better accuracy and repeatability was found in the revised technique than the standard technique. The revised technique will be useful to determine the individual laxity and modify the treatment plan and return-to-sports protocol. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE III.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Two techniques exist from which all 3D preoperative planning software for total shoulder arthroplasty are based. One technique is based on measurements constructed on the mid-glenoid and scapular landmarks (Landmark). The second is an automated system using a best-fit sphere technique (Automated). The purpose was to compare glenoid measurements from the two techniques against a control computed tomography-derived 3D printed scapula. METHODS Computed tomography scans of osteoarthritic shoulders of 20 patients undergoing primary total shoulder arthroplasty were analyzed with both 3D planning software techniques. Measurements from a 3D printed scapula (Scapula) from the true 3D computed tomography scan served as controls. Glenoid version and inclination measurements from each group were blinded and reviewed. RESULTS In 65% (Automated) and 45% (Landmark) of cases, either inclination or version varied by 5° or more versus 3D printed scapula. Significant variability in version differences compared to the scapula group existed (p = 0.007). Glenoid version from the Scapula = 13.0° ± 10.6°, Automated = 15.0° ± 13.9°, and Landmark = 12.2° ± 7.8°. Inclination from Scapula = 5.4° ± 7.9°, Automated = 6.1° ± 12.6°, and Landmark = 6.2° ± 9.1°. DISCUSSION A high percentage of cases showed discrepancies in glenoid inclination and version values from both techniques. Surgeons should be aware that regardless of software technique, there is variability compared to measurements from a control 3D computed tomography printed scapula.

Abstract
Shoulder arthroplasty is performed with increasing frequency, and osteoarthritis is the most common indication for this procedure. However, the glenoid side of the joint is widely recognized as a limiting factor in the long-term durability of shoulder replacement, and osteoarthritis leads to characteristic bony changes at the glenoid which can exacerbate this challenge by reducing the already limited glenoid bone stock, by altering biomechanics, and by interfering with operative exposure. This article reviews the Walch classification system for glenoid morphology. Several typical findings of osteoarthritis at the glenoid are discussed including central bone loss, posterior bone loss, retroversion, biconcavity, inclination, osteophyte formation, subchondral bone quality, and bone density. The three primary types of shoulder arthroplasty are reviewed, along with several techniques for addressing glenoid deformity, including eccentric reaming, bone grafting, and the use of augmented glenoid components. Ultimately, a primary objective at shoulder arthroplasty is to correct glenoid deformity while preserving bone stock, which depends critically on characterizing the glenoid at pre-operative imaging. Understanding the surgical techniques and the implications of glenoid morphology on surgical decision-making enables the radiologist to provide the morphologic information needed by the surgeon.

Abstract
» Longitudinal clinical and radiographic success of total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) is critically dependent on optimal glenoid component position. » Historically, preoperative templating utilized radiographs with commercially produced overlay implant templates and a basic understanding of glenoid morphology. » The advent of 3-dimensional imaging and templating has achieved more accurate and precise pathologic glenoid interrogation and glenoid implant positioning than historical 2-dimensional imaging. » Advanced templating allows for the understanding of unique patient morphology, the recognition and anticipation of potential operative challenges, and the prediction of implant limitations, and it provides a method for preoperatively addressing abnormal glenoid morphology. » Synergistic software, implants, and instrumentation have emerged with the aim of improving the accuracy of glenoid component implantation. Additional studies are warranted to determine the ultimate efficacy and cost-effectiveness of these technologies, as well as the potential for improvements in TSA outcomes.

Impact of preoperative 3-dimensional planning and intraoperative navigation of shoulder arthroplasty on implant selection and operative time: a single surgeon's experience. J Shoulder Elbow Surg 2020; 29:2564-2570.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Preoperative 3D planning and intraoperative navigation for shoulder arthroplasty has recently gained interest because of the potential to enhance the surgeon's understanding of glenoid anatomy and improve the accuracy of glenoid component positioning. The purpose of our study was to assess the impact of preoperative 3D planning on the surgeon's selection of the glenoid component (standard vs. augmented) and compare duration of surgery with and without intraoperative navigation. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed 200 consecutive patients who underwent shoulder arthroplasty. The first group of 100 patients underwent shoulder arthroplasty using standard 2D preoperative planning based on standard radiographs and computed tomographic scans. The second group of 100 patients underwent shoulder arthroplasty using 3D preoperative planning and intraoperative navigation. Type of glenoid component and operative time were recorded in each case. RESULTS For the group of patients with standard preoperative planning, only 15 augmented glenoid components were used, whereas in the group of patients with 3D preoperative planning and navigation, 54 augments were used (P < .001). The operative time was 11 minutes longer for the procedures that used intraoperative navigation, compared with those that did not (P < .001). This difference diminished as the surgeon became more proficient with the navigation technique. CONCLUSION Use of preoperative 3D planning changes the surgeon's understanding of the patient's glenoid anatomy. In our study, using 3D planning increased the likelihood that the surgeon selected an augmented glenoid component compared with 2D planning. Intraoperative navigation slightly lengthened the duration of surgery, but this became insignificant as part of a learning curve within 6 months.

Abstract
Dwyer (lateral calcaneal closing wedge) osteotomy is commonly used in surgical correction of heel varus deformity. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of wedge size and angle of osteotomy on deformity correction using preoperative imaging analysis with three-dimensional (3D) printed modeling. Seven patients diagnosed with pes cavovarus deformity who underwent Dwyer calcaneal osteotomy were identified retrospectively. Preoperative computed tomogrphy scans were used to create 3D printed models of the foot. After18 variations of osteotomy and fixation performed for each foot, Harris heel and Saltzman images were obtained. The angle between the tibia-talus axis and calcaneal-tuber axis was measured and compared to pre-osteotomy state. Change in the calcaneal lengths was also analyzed. The average degree correction of deformity per mm of bone resected was 3.8 ± 0.2 degrees in the Harris Heel view and 2.7 ± 0.8 degrees in the Saltzman view. A significant increase in correction was obtained with 10 mm compared with 5 mm wide wedges (P < .001). The difference in correction was not statistically significant between 30 and 45 degree cuts or osteotomy distance from the posterior calcaneal tuberosity, but a 45 degree sagittal angle resulted in less calcaneal shortening compared to 30 degrees (P = .02). A clinically driven method using patient-specific 3D models for determining effects of calcaneal osteotomy variables in correcting hindfoot alignment was developed. In summary, the amount of wedge resected impacts hindfoot alignment more than location and sagittal angle of the cut. Calcaneal shortening depends on sagittal angle of the cut.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Three-dimensional (3D) geometry of the normal glenohumeral bone anatomy and relations is poorly documented. Our aims were (1) to determine the 3D geometry of the normal glenohumeral joint (GHJ) with reference to the scapular body plane and (2) to identify spatial correlations between the orientation and direction of the humeral head and the glenoid. METHODS Computed tomographies (CTs) of the normal, noninjured GHJ were collected from patients who had undergone CTs in the setting of (1) polytrauma, (2) traumatic head injury, (3) chronic acromioclavicular joint dislocations, and (4) unilateral trauma with a contralateral normal shoulder. We performed 3D segmentation and measurements with a fully automatic software (Glenosys; Imascap). Measurements were made in reference to the scapular body plane and its transverse axis. Geometric measurements included version, inclination, direction, orientation, best-fit sphere radius (BFSR), humeral subluxation, critical shoulder angle, reverse shoulder angle, glenoid area, and glenohumeral distance. Statistical correlations were sought between glenoid and humeral 3D measurements (Pearson correlation). RESULTS A total of 122 normal GHJs (64 men, 58 women, age: 52 ± 17 years) were studied. The glenoid BFSR was always larger than the humerus BFSR (constant factor of 1.5, standard deviation = 0.2). The mean glenoid version and inclination were -6° ± 4° and 7° ± 5°, respectively. Men and women were found to have significantly different values for inclination (6° vs. 9°, P = .02), but not for version. Humeral subluxation was 59% ± 7%, with a linear correlation with glenoid retroversion (r = -0.70, P < .001) regardless of age. There was a significant and linear correlation between glenoid and humeral orientation and direction (r = 0.72 and r = 0.70, P < .001). CONCLUSION The 3D geometry of the glenoid and humeral head present distinct limits in normal shoulders that can be set as references in daily practice: version and inclination are -6° and 7°, respectively, and humeral posterior subluxation is 59%; interindividual variations, regardless of the size, are relative to the scapular plane. There exists a strong correlation between the position of the humeral head and the glenoid orientation and direction.

Abstract
The key management of glenohumeral osteoarthritis is shoulder arthroplasty which aims to reduce pain and restore full shoulder function: it has increased in recent years. A detailed understanding of the anatomy of the glenoid and humeral head, as well as morphological changes of the glenoid in osteoarthritis, are important factors to consider when deciding on replacement components. This review begins with a brief introduction of the glenohumeral joint itself, and then considers the detailed anatomy of the glenoid fossa and humeral head, both of which are reported to have variable morphology. Several studies have been undertaken to assess various parameters, especially of the glenoid fossa including its shape, height, width, and articular surface area, version and inclination, in an attempt to define a standard classification that can be applied to surgical intervention. Nevertheless, no definitive consensus concerning the classification of these morphologies has been forthcoming, hence the need for this review. Following a consideration of these morphologies, the current state of knowledge regarding glenoid deformity in osteoarthritis, as well as its surgical management, is considered.

BMC Musculoskelet Disord 2020; 21:668. [PMID: 33036604 PMCID: PMC7545572 DOI: 10.1186/s12891-020-03690-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/25/2020] [Accepted: 09/30/2020] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The success of shoulder arthroplasty, both reverse and anatomical, depends on correcting the underlying glenoid deformity especially in patients with an osteoarthritis. We hypothesized that the distribution of glenoid version and especially inclination are underestimated in the shoulder arthritis population, and also that superior glenoid inclination can be detected through 3-dimensional (3D) software program of computed tomography (CT) to a greater proportion in patients with rotator cuff insufficiency, but also in patients with osteoarthritis with an intact rotator cuff. Because of the influence of rotator cuff imbalance on secondary glenoid wear the values of the critical shoulder angle (CSA) and the fatty infiltration of the rotator cuff are further analyzed. The aim of our study is to determine; 1) the distribution of glenoid inclination and version; 2) the relationship between glenoid inclination, version, the critical shoulder angle (CSA) to the status of the rotator cuff; 3) the proportion of patients with both an intact rotator cuff and a superior inclination greater than 10°. METHODS A total of 231 shoulders were evaluated with X-ray images, 3-dimentional (3D) software program of computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging. The cohort was divided into 3 groups according to their inclination angles and also grouped as intact-rotator cuff and torn-cuff group. RESULTS The median (min/max) values for the 231 shoulders were 8° (- 23°/56°) for the inclination angle, - 11°(- 55°/23°) for the version angle, and 31.5°(17.6°/61.6°) for the CSA. The majority of the glenoids were found to show posterior-superior erosion. Glenoid inclination angle and CSA were significantly higher in torn-cuff group when compared with intact-cuff group (P < 0.001, both). The rotator cuff tears were statistically significant in high inclination group than low inclination group and no inclination group (p < 0.001). In the high inclination group, 41 of 105 (39%) shoulders had an intact rotator cuff, in about 18% of all shoulders. CONCLUSION Our findings show that 3D evaluation of glenoid inclination is mandatory for preoperative planning of shoulder replacement in order to properly assess superior inclination and that reverse shoulder arthroplasty may be considered more frequently than as previously expected, even when the rotator cuff is intact.

Abstract
Background This study was performed to compare glenoid version and inclination measured using two-dimensional (2D) images from computed tomography (CT) scans or three-dimensional (3D) reconstructed bone models. Methods Thirty patients who had undergone conventional CT scans were included. Two orthopedic surgeons measured glenoid version and inclination three times on 2D images from CT scans (2D measurement), and two other orthopedic surgeons performed the same measurements using 3D reconstructed bone models (3D measurement). The 3D-reconstructed bone models were acquired and measured with Mimics and 3-Matics (Materialise). Results Mean glenoid version and inclination in 2D measurements were -1.705º and 9.08º, respectively, while those in 3D measurements were 2.635º and 7.23º. The intra-observer reliability in 2D measurements was 0.605 and 0.698, respectively, while that in 3D measurements was 0.883 and 0.892. The inter-observer reliability in 2D measurements was 0.456 and 0.374, respectively, while that in 3D measurements was 0.853 and 0.845. Conclusions The difference between 2D and 3D measurements is not due to differences in image data but to the use of different tools. However, more consistent results were obtained in 3D measurement. Therefore, 3D measurement can be a good alternative for measuring glenoid version and inclination.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Inaccurate fixation and positioning of the glenoid component using conventional techniques are problematic in reversed shoulder arthroplasty (RSA). Our objective was to investigate the accuracy of O-arm navigation of the glenoid component in RSA. METHODS This retrospective case-control study comprised 2 groups of 25 patients who underwent reversed shoulder arthroplasty with or without intraoperative O-arm navigation. The intraoperative goal was to place the component neutrally in the glenoid in the axial plane and 10° inferiorly tilted in the scapular plane. Glenoid version angle and inclination were measured by computed tomography obtained preoperatively and a year postoperatively. Operative time, intraoperative bleeding, and the presence of postoperative complications were recorded. RESULTS Compared with the ideal, the range of error for version was 7.3° (SD 3.6°) in the control group and 5.6° (SD 3.6°) in the navigated group (P = 0.278), and the range of error for inclination was 18.3° (SD 11.7°) in the control group and 4.9° (SD 3.8°) in the navigated group (P = 0.0004). The mean operative time was 164.6 (SD 21.2) min in the control group and 192.0 (SD 16.2) min in the navigated group (P = 0.001). The mean intraoperative bleeding was 201.0 (SD 37.0) mL in the control group and 185.3 (SD 35.6) mL in the navigated group (P = 0.300). There were no complications reported related to the intraoperative O-arm navigation. CONCLUSION O-arm navigation may be a useful tool for the placement with inferior tilt of the glenoid procedure in reversed shoulder arthroplasty.

Abstract
Background The glenoid version of the shoulder joint correlates with the stability of the glenohumeral joint and the clinical results of total shoulder arthroplasty. We sought to analyze and compare the glenoid version measured by traditional axial two-dimensional (2D) computed tomography (CT) and three-dimensional (3D) reconstructed images at different levels. Methods A total of 30 cases, including 15 male and 15 female patients, who underwent 3D shoulder CT imaging was randomly selected and matched by sex consecutively at one hospital. The angular difference between the scapular body axis and 2D CT slice axis was measured. The glenoid version was assessed at three levels (midpoint, upper one-third, and center of the lower circle of the glenoid) using Friedman’s method in the axial plane with 2D CT images and at the same level of three different transverse planes using a 3D reconstructed image. Results The mean difference between the scapular body axis on the 3D reconstructed image and the 2D CT slice axis was 38.4°. At the level of the midpoint of the glenoid, the measurements were 1.7°±4.9° on the 2D CT images and −1.8°±4.1° in the 3D reconstructed image. At the level of the center of the lower circle, the measurements were 2.7°±5.2° on the 2D CT images and −0.5°±4.8° in the 3D reconstructed image. A statistically significant difference was found between the 2D CT and 3D reconstructed images at all three levels. Conclusions The glenoid version is measured differently between axial 2D CT and 3D reconstructed images at three levels. Use of 3D reconstructed imaging can provide a more accurate glenoid version profile relative to 2D CT. The glenoid version is measured differently at different levels.

Establishment of a True En Face View in the Evaluation of Glenoid Morphology for Treatment of Traumatic Anterior Shoulder Instability. Arthroscopy 2020; 36:668-679.

Abstract
PURPOSE To develop an accurate and reproducible method for establishment of a true en face view of the glenoid with a traumatic bone defect. METHODS A total of 50 sets of computed tomography images of the glenoid were used for 3-dimensional reconstruction. Both a quantitative definition and a practical method were designed for creation of the true en face view of the glenoid with a traumatic bone defect. The accuracy and reliability of the quantitative definition and the practical method were evaluated by calculating the maximal projection area and the simulated bone defect size. RESULTS The glenoid surface could be fit with a sphere with a radius of 26.11 ± 2.15 mm (P < .001, R2 = 0.98). The true en face view could be established with the quantitative definition, which resulted in the maximal projection area, whereas any tilt would lead to decreased values (P < .05). To establish the true en face view on the glenoid with a traumatic bone defect, a vector from the center of the best-fit sphere of the glenoid surface to the middle point of an arc connecting the supraglenoid and infraglenoid tubercles was generated, which served as a perpendicular for glenoid reorientation. Cases off the true en face view would result in less accurate estimation of the bone defect size (P < .05). CONCLUSIONS This study provided a quantitative definition and a practical method for generation of the true en face view in the presence of a traumatic bone defect based on the best-fit sphere of the glenoid surface as well as the anatomic landmark of the supraglenoid and infraglenoid tubercles. This study may improve the reliability of the quantification of traumatic bone defects of the glenoid. CLINICAL RELEVANCE The practical method for establishment of the true en face view of the glenoid would be useful in decision making for the treatment of traumatic anterior shoulder instability.

Abstract
AIMS Accurate measurement of the glenoid version is important in performing total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA). Our aim was to evaluate the Ellipse method, which involves formally defining the vertical mid-point of the glenoid prior to measuring the glenoid version and comparing it with the 'classic' Friedman method. METHODS This was a retrospective study which evaluated 100 CT scans for patients who underwent a primary TSA. The glenoid version was measured using the Friedman and Ellipse methods by two senior observers. Statistical analyses were performed using the paired t-test for significance and the Bland-Altman plot for agreement. RESULTS The mean glenoid version was -3.11° (-23.8° to 17.9°) using the Friedman method and -1.95° (-29.8° to 24.6°) using the Ellipse method (p = 0.002). In 16 patients the difference between methods was greater than 5°, which we considered to be clinically significant. There was poor agreement between methods with relatively large 95% limits of agreement. There was excellent inter-rater agreement between the observers for the Ellipse method and similarly, the intrarater agreement was excellent with a repeatability coefficient of 0.94. CONCLUSION We recommend the use of the Ellipse modification to define the mid glenoid point prior to measuring the glenoid version in patients undergoing TSA.

Abstract
Background/aim To determine whether or not there is a difference between the version of the bone and cartilage surfaces of the glenoid. Axial magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) slices were examined in order to evaluate the measurements taken based on both the cartilage and bone joint surfaces. Materials and methods A retrospective evaluation was made of the MRI scans of 182 patients. All of the reviewers independently measured the glenoid version angles of all of the patients from 1–182. The process was then repeated, with each reviewer taking second measurements of the angles from 1–182. Pearson correlation coefficient analysis was applied to evaluate the interaction and relationships between the measurements taken from the bone and cartilage. The intra- and interobserver interclass correlation coefficients (ICCs) were assessed. Analysis of variance was applied to determine any interobserver significant differences. Results The mean glenoid version was determined as –3.58 ± 4.08° in the bone-based measurements and –5.81 ± 4.30° in the cartilage-based measurements. The cartilage- and bone-based measurements were found to have inter- and intraobserver reliability. A statistically significant difference was observed between the mean cartilage-based version and the mean bone-based version. Changes in the cartilage- and bone-based measurements were correlated; however, this change was not linear. Conclusion The cartilage-based version showed a significant difference from the bone- based version. Therefore, in the preoperative planning and evaluation of glenoid-based pathologies, it would be more appropriate to evaluate both the bone and cartilage surface on MRI.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to investigate whether there are glenohumeral morphological differences between normal population, glenohumeral instability, and rotator cuff pathology. METHOD In this study, shoulder magnetic resonance (MR) images of 150 patients were evaluated. Patients included in the study were studied in three groups of 50 individuals: patients with anterior shoulder instability in group 1, patients with rotator cuff tear in group 2, and control subjects without shoulder pathology in group 3. RESULTS There were statistically significant differences between groups in evaluations for glenoid version, glenoid coronal height, glenoid coronal diameter, humeral axial and coronal diameters, and coracohumeral interval distances. Significant differences were observed between groups 2 and 3 in glenoid axial diameter, glenoid coronal height, glenoid depth, humeral coronal diameter, and coracohumeral distances. CONCLUSION The results obtained in this study suggest that glenoid version, glenoid coronal height and diameter, humeral diameter, and coracohumeral interval parameters in glenohumeral morphology-related parameters in patients with anterior instability are different from those of normal population and patients with rotator cuff pathology. In cases where there is a clinically difficult diagnosis, these radiological measurements will be helpful to clinicians in diagnosis and treatment planning, especially in cases of treatment-resistant cases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Asians generally have smaller stature than Europeans and Americans, and currently available implants used in reverse shoulder arthroplasty might not fit smaller bony anatomies. However, few articles have reported glenoid geometry in the Asian population. The purpose of this study was to measure the dimensions and orientations of the glenoid from three-dimensional computed tomography reconstructions of elderly Japanese subjects. METHODS This study included 100 shoulders (50 males and 50 females with >50 years of age). The mean age was 67 ± 7 years for both sexes, and the mean height was 167 ± 7 cm for males and 154 ± 6 cm for females. Three-dimensional scapular models were created from computed tomographic images, and the glenoid height, glenoid width, glenoid version, glenoid inclination, vault depth, and vault width were measured. RESULTS The mean glenoid height and width were 38.6 and 29.4 mm for males and 33.1 and 24.4 mm for females, respectively. Both retroversion and superior inclination were approximately 3° in both sexes. The glenoid vault was deeper in the posterior region with the maximum depth of 26.1 and 23.6 mm in males and females. The vault width was narrower in the anterior region with the anterior width of 2.5 mm at 15 mm medial from the glenoid face in females. CONCLUSION Glenoids of Japanese females are small compared to currently available baseplates for reverse shoulder arthroplasty. These results may be helpful to aid design in smaller baseplates that better fit the anatomic geometry of the Asian glenoid.

Abstract
Introduction The purposes of this study were to determine (1) whether glenoid inclination
(GI) could be accurately measured on plain radiographs as compared to a
gold-standard 3-dimensional (3D) measure and (2) whether GI could be
reliably measured on plain radiographs. Materials and Methods Digitally reconstructed radiographs (DRRs) were made from 3D computed
tomography reconstructions of 68 normal cadaver scapulae. DRRs were made in
a variety of viewing angles. Inclination was measured on these DRRs. These
measurements were also made using a gold-standard 3D method. Measurements
were made by 2 orthopedic surgeons and 1 surgeon twice, to calculate
interrater and intrarater intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs). Results The gold-standard 3D β was 83 ± 5° (72°–98°). On neutral plain radiographs,
the mean ± standard deviation 2D β angle was 80 ± 6° (range, 66°–99°). With
regard to accuracy, the 2D β angle was significantly different from the 3D β
angle, with the 2D β underestimating the 3D β by 5° (95% confidence
intervals −1 to 12). With regard to reliability, interrater ICCs for 2D β
with a neutral viewing angle was 0.79. Two-dimensional β varied widely with
viewing angle from 0.24 to 0.88. Interrater ICCs for the 3D method was 0.83
(0.60–0.92). Intrarater ICCs for all 3 techniques were high (>0.91). Conclusions Two-dimensional radiographic GI measurement is not accurate, as it
underestimates the 3D value by an average of 5° when compared to the
gold-standard 3D measurement. GI 2D measurement reliability varies with
viewing angle on plain radiographs and thus to accurately and reliably
measure inclination 3D imaging is necessary.

Multilevel glenoid morphology and retroversion assessment in Walch B2 and B3 types. Skeletal Radiol 2019; 48:907-914.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE A major factor that impacts the long-term outcome and complication rates of total shoulder arthroplasty is the preoperative posterior glenoid bone loss quantified by glenoid retroversion. The purpose of this study was to assess if glenoid retroversion varies significantly at different glenoid heights in Walch B2 and B3 glenoids. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients with B2 and B3 glenoid types were included following retrospective review of 386 consecutive CT shoulder studies performed for arthroplasty preoperative planning. True axial CT reconstructions were created using a validated technique. Two readers independently measured the glenoid retroversion angles according to the Friedman method using the "intermediate" glenoid at three glenoid heights: 75% (upper), 50% (equator), and 25% (lower). The variances between the three levels for a given patient were calculated. RESULTS Twenty-nine B2 and 8 B3 glenoid types were included. There was no significant difference in variance of glenoid version among the three levels in B2 or B3 groups. The mean variance in retroversion degree between equator-lower, upper-equator, and upper-lower glenoid was - 0.4, 0.3, and - 0.2 for B2; and - 0.2, 1.9, and 1.9 for B3 glenoid, respectively. The level of inter-reader agreement was fair to good for variance at equator-lower, and good to excellent for upper-equator and upper-lower glenoid. CONCLUSIONS Glenoid version can be accurately measured at any level between 25 and 75% of glenoid height for Walch B2 and B3. We recommend that the glenoid equator be used as the reference to assure consistent and reliable version measurements in this group of patients.

Abstract
Background The longitudinal axis of the glenoid is not always parallel to the scapular body, and glenoid torsion could affect the values of glenoid orientation. The purpose of this study was to evaluate 3-dimensional glenoid version and inclination modified by glenoid torsion and to clarify the differences between the values of conventional and of modified glenoid orientations. Methods Computed tomography scans of 30 shoulders without shoulder pathology, 30 shoulders with primary osteoarthritis, and 30 shoulders with a massive rotator cuff tear or cuff tear arthropathy were retrospectively evaluated. After determining the glenoid axis and the scapular planes and calculating conventional glenoid version and inclination, modified glenoid version and inclination, and glenoid torsion, the values of conventional glenoid orientation and those of modified glenoid orientation were compared statistically. Results All shoulders showed anterior torsion of the glenoid with an average of 16° ± 5°. The values of modified glenoid retroversion were significantly smaller than those of conventional glenoid retroversion in all groups (P < .033), and the values of the modified glenoid inferior inclination were significantly larger than those of conventional glenoid inferior inclination in all groups (P < .001). Conclusions The present study showed that the glenoid twists with respect to the scapular body and that modification by glenoid torsion could affect the values of glenoid orientation. These results indicated that glenoid orientation with respect to the glenoid longitudinal axis will help surgeons determine proper placement of the glenoid component during shoulder arthroplasty.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study proposes a method for inferring the premorbid glenoid shape and orientation of scapulae affected by glenohumeral osteoarthritis (OA) to inform restorative surgery. METHODS A statistical shape model (SSM) built from 64 healthy scapulae was used to reconstruct the premorbid glenoid shape based on anatomic features that are considered unaffected by OA. First, the method was validated on healthy scapulae by quantifying the accuracy of the predicted shape in terms of surface distance, glenoid version, and inclination. The SSM-based reconstruction was then applied to 30 OA scapulae. Glenoid version and inclination were measured fully automatically and compared between the original OA glenoids, SSM-based glenoid reconstructions, and healthy scapulae. RESULTS Validation on healthy scapulae showed a root-mean-square surface distance between original and predicted glenoids of 1.0 ± 0.2 mm. The prediction error was 2.3° ± 1.8° for glenoid version and 2.1° ± 2.0° for inclination. When applied to an OA dataset, SSM-based reconstruction restored average glenoid version and inclination to values similar to the healthy situation. No differences were observed between average orientation values measured on SSM-based reconstructed and healthy scapulae (P ≥ .10). However, the average orientation of the reconstructed premorbid glenoid differed from the average orientation of OA glenoids for Walch classes A1 (version) and B2 (version, inclination, and medialization). CONCLUSION The proposed SSM can predict the premorbid glenoid cavity of healthy scapulae with millimeter accuracy. This technique has the potential to reconstruct the premorbid glenoid cavity shape, as it was prior to OA, and thus to guide the positioning of glenoid implants in total shoulder arthroplasty.

Abstract
Background Our purpose was to compare the output of glenoid measurements with 2 commercially available preoperative 3-dimensional (3D) total shoulder arthroplasty planning systems. The hypothesis was that there would be no difference in product-derived measurements between the systems. Methods Preoperative 3D computed tomography scans of 63 consecutive patients undergoing primary arthroplasty were analyzed using 2 product-derived techniques: Blueprint and VIP. Glenoid version and inclination measurements with each system were blinded and statistically compared, and the amount of variance was recorded. Results Glenoid version based on Blueprint was -10.9° ± 9.0° (range, -41° to 14°) compared with -9.3° ± 8.2° (range, -36° to 8°) for VIP (P = .04). Inclination was 9.0° ± 8.8° (range, -12° to 29°) with Blueprint compared with 9.7° ± 6.1° (range, -6° to 22°) for VIP (P = .463). For version, the difference between the 2 systems was less than 5° in 44 cases (69.8%), 5°-10° in 12 cases (19.0%), and greater than 10° in 7 cases (11.1%). For inclination, the difference was less than 5° in 34 cases (54.0%), 5°-10° in 17 cases (27.0%), and greater than 10° in 12 cases (19.0%). We found no differences in glenoid version or inclination based on glenoid morphology between the 2 systems (P = .908) and no differences between patients with the most severe arthritis and posterior wear (P = .202). Conclusions There is considerable variability between preoperative measurements obtained for 3D planning of shoulder arthroplasty with the use of Blueprint and VIP. Given that implant choice and desired component positioning are based on preoperative measurements, further study is needed to evaluate the differences between the measurements obtained with different techniques.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We evaluated the biomechanical effects and potential advantages of glenoid implants with adaptable backside curvature radii and compared them with standard implants having fixed backside curvatures in anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty (aTSA) for primary glenohumeral osteoarthritis with uniconcave glenoids. METHODS A glenoid implant with adaptable backside curvatures (Aequalis PerFORM, Tornier SAS, Montbonnot, France) was compared with its previous model having a fixed curvature radius. Virtual aTSAs were performed in 24 patients from preoperative shoulder computed tomography data sets, using both implants in each patient. For all 48 simulated aTSAs, we first measured the glenoid bone reaming depth, subchondral bone quality after reaming, and implant backside surface and then the predicted cement stress, bone-cement interfacial stress, and bone strain at 60° of arm abduction. These biomechanical quantities were tested for differences between adaptable and fixed implants and for correlations between preoperative measurements and postoperative predictions. RESULTS Adaptable glenoid implants induced a significant decrease in cement stress (P = .008), bone-cement interfacial stress (P = .045), and bone strain (P = .039), particularly for glenoids with curvature radii larger than 40 mm. However, these biomechanical effects were not significantly correlated with an increase in subchondral glenoid bone quality. CONCLUSIONS Our study confirms the presumed biomechanical advantages of adaptable glenoid implants, even though the effects were not directly due to the adaptation of the backside curvature radius. Benefits were more pronounced for glenoids with large curvature radii. Our initial biomechanical findings should now be corroborated with large-scale clinical studies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The objectives of this study were to determine whether glenoid inclination (1) could be measured accurately on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) using computed tomography (CT) as a gold standard, (2) could be measured reliably on MRI, and (3) whether it differed between patients with rotator cuff tears and age-matched controls without evidence of rotator cuff tears or glenohumeral osteoarthritis. METHODS In this comparative retrospective radiographic study, we measured glenoid inclination on T1 coronal MRI corrected into the plane of the scapula. We determined accuracy by comparison with CT and inter-rater reliability. We compared glenoid inclination between patients with full-thickness rotator cuff tears and patients aged >50 years without evidence of a rotator cuff tear or glenohumeral arthritis. An a priori power analysis determined adequate power to detect a 2° difference in glenoid inclination. RESULTS (1) In a validation cohort of 37 patients with MRI and CT, the intraclass correlation coefficient was 0.877, with a mean difference of 0° (95% confidence interval, -1° to 1°). (2) For MRI inclination, the inter-rater intraclass correlation coefficient was 0.911. (3) Superior glenoid inclination was 2° higher (range, 1°-4°, P < .001) in the rotator cuff tear group of 192 patients than in the control cohort of 107 patients. CONCLUSIONS Glenoid inclination can be accurately and reliably measured on MRI. Although superior glenoid inclination is statistically greater in those with rotator cuff tears than in patients of similar age without rotator cuff tears or glenohumeral arthritis, the difference is likely below clinical significance.

Interdepartmental imaging protocol for clinically based three-dimensional computed tomography can provide accurate measurement of glenoid version. J Shoulder Elbow Surg 2018; 27:1297-1305.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Conventional computed tomography (CT) is not accurate for glenoid version measurement. This study sought to examine the feasibility of an interdepartmental protocol implemented between orthopedic surgery and radiology departments for acquisition of anatomic axial CT images and to validate the glenoid version measured through such a protocol. MATERIALS AND METHODS Data of 30 conventional CT scans of 10 normal and 20 osteoarthritic glenoids were transferred to clinical 3-dimensional imaging software by a radiology technician trained for the study. The technician independently reoriented the scapulae to generate anatomic CT images. A separate team of orthopedic researchers used laboratory-based 3-dimensional reconstruction software (Mimics; Materialise, Leuven, Belgium) to generate anatomic axial images. Three independent examiners measured glenoid version on the conventional CT, reoriented anatomic CT, and Mimics images at the superior, middle, and inferior levels. Data were analyzed using the Mimics data as the "gold standard." RESULTS Reoriented anatomic CT images generated by the technician resulted in almost identical version measurements to the Mimics images in both normal and arthritic glenoids. The conventional CT images had poor agreement with the Mimics images in normal glenoids but had good agreement in arthritic glenoids. Both normal and arthritic glenoids had increased retroversion superiorly (P < .05), and this phenomenon was significantly exaggerated on the conventional CT images (P < .05). CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrated that an interdepartmental protocol can produce reoriented anatomic axial CT images on which true glenoid version can be accurately measured. Such an institutional protocol would help surgeons accurately evaluate glenoid version preoperatively with reduced workload and expense.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the distance and position of humeral head translation during glenohumeral motion and to investigate the function of the rotator cuff in glenohumeral translation. METHODS Using 9 cadavers, glenohumeral translation during passive pendulum motion was tracked by an optical motion capture system. Tension was applied to 5 compartments of the rotator cuff muscles, and 7 different conditions of rotator cuff dysfunction were sequentially simulated. Three-dimensional glenohumeral structure was reconstructed from the computed tomography images of the specimens, and the distance and position of glenohumeral translation were compared among the conditions. RESULTS The average radius of glenohumeral translation was 10.6 ± 4.3 mm when static loading was applied to all rotator cuff muscles. The radius increased significantly in the models without traction force on the supraspinatus and total subscapularis tendons (P = .030). The position of the translation center did not change in the mediolateral direction (P = .587) and in the anteroposterior direction (P = .138), but it moved significantly superiorly in the models without supraspinatus and infraspinatus loading (P = .011) and in those without supraspinatus, infraspinatus, and teres minor loading (P < .001). CONCLUSIONS The distance and position of humeral head translation during glenohumeral motion changed with rotator cuff deficiency. The present study indicated that the subscapularis plays an important role in maintaining the central position of the humeral head, and that the infraspinatus acts as a major depressor of the humeral head during shoulder motion. CLINICAL RELEVANCE The results of this study suggest that extension of a tear into the subscapularis should be avoided to maintain the centering function of the glenohumeral joint in cases with rotator cuff tear.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Implantation of the glenoid component of a total shoulder prosthesis can be facilitated by using a patient-specific guide (PSG) designed to ensure replication of the preoperatively planned position. The objective of this study was to assess the reliability and accuracy of a PSG in replicating the planned glenoid component position during total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA). HYPOTHESIS Additional criteria should be used for 3D preoperative planning and PSG design to further improve the accuracy of glenoid component positioning. MATERIAL AND METHODS We studied 10 patients who underwent TSA with use of a PSG to position the glenoid component after preoperative 3D planning. Postoperative glenoid version and tilt were measured and compared to the planned values. We also used new criteria to assess implant rotation and global 3D position, as well as accuracy of the 3D pilot hole for the glenoid guide-pin. RESULTS Mean errors in glenoid position were -1.7°±4.4° for version, -0.4°±4.9° for tilt, and 6.0°±13.5° for rotation. Mean difference in global orientation of the glenoid implant versus the planned value was 4.9°±2.5°. Mean 3D discrepancy in glenoid pilot hole position was 2.9±0.5mm; the discrepancy was greater in the mediolateral direction (1.9±0.9mm) than in the supero-inferior (1.1±1.2mm) and antero-posterior (0.8±1.2mm) directions. DISCUSSION The poor performance of the PSG in controlling rotation and reaming may explain the difference in global glenoid position compared to the planned value. Improvements in PSG design to incorporate these two parameters deserve consideration. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE II, prospective cohort study.

Abstract
Knowledge of the normal and pathological three-dimensional (3D) gleno-humeral relationship is imperative when planning and performing a total shoulder arthroplasty. Currently, two-dimensional (2D) parameters are used to describe this anatomy and despite the fact that these 2D measurements have a wide distribution in the normal population, they are commonly accepted. This broad distribution can be explained on one hand by anatomical factors and on the other hand, by positional errors. A 3D CT-scan reconstruction and evaluation can overcome this shortcoming and can be used to determine more accurately the surgical planes on the normal and pathological shoulder joint. There is, however, no consensus on which references should be used when studying this 3D relationship. This thesis describes the normal 3D gleno-humeral relationship and the best glenoid plane to use in surgery, based on 3D CT-scan. Furthermore, a glenoid aiming device that can be of surgical help in the reconstruction of the normal glenoid anatomy was developed based on these measurements.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Preoperative computed tomography (CT) measurements of glenoid version and inclination are recommended for planning glenoid implantation in shoulder arthroplasty. However, current manual or semi-automated 2-dimensional (2D) and 3-dimensional (3D) methods are user-dependent and time-consuming. We assessed whether the use of a 3D automated method is accurate and reliable to measure glenoid version and inclination in osteoarthritic shoulders. METHODS CT scans of osteoarthritic shoulders of 60 patients scheduled for shoulder arthroplasty were obtained. Automated, surgeon-operated, image analysis software (Glenosys; Imascap) was developed to measure glenoid version and inclination. The anatomic scapular reference planes were defined as the mean of the peripheral points of the scapular body as well as the plane perpendicular to it, passing along the supraspinatus fossa line. Measurements were compared with those obtained using previously described manual or semi-automated methods, including the Friedman version angle on 2D CTs, Friedman method on 3D multiplanar reconstructions (corrected Friedman method), Ganapathi-Iannotti and Lewis-Armstrong methods on 3D volumetric reconstructions (for glenoid version), and Maurer method (for glenoid inclination).The mean differences (and standard deviation) and the concordance correlation coefficients (CCCs) were calculated. Two orthopaedic surgeons independently examined the images for the interobserver analysis, with one of them measuring them twice more for the intraobserver analysis; interobserver and intraobserver reliability was calculated using the intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs). RESULTS The mean difference in the Glenosys glenoid version measurement was 2.0° ± 4.5° (CCC = 0.93) compared with the Friedman method, 2.5° ± 3.2° (CCC = 0.95) compared with the corrected Friedman method, 1.5° ± 4.5° (CCC = 0.94) compared with the Ganapathi-Iannotti method, and 1.8° ± 3.8° (CCC = 0.95) compared with the Lewis-Armstrong method. There was a mean difference of 0.2° ± 4.7° (CCC = 0.78) between the inclination measurements made with the Glenosys and Maurer methods. The difference between the overall average 2D and 3D measurements was not significant (p = 0.45). CONCLUSIONS Use of fully automated software for 3D measurement of glenoid version and inclination in arthritic shoulders is reliable and accurate, showing excellent correlation with previously described manual or semi-automated methods. CLINICAL RELEVANCE The use of automated surgeon-operated image analysis software to evaluate 3D glenoid anatomy eliminates interobserver and intraobserver discrepancies, improves the accuracy of preoperative planning for shoulder replacement, and offers a potential gain of time for the surgeon.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION In 2014, reverse total shoulder arthroplasty was approved in Japan. We were concerned that the base plate might be incompatible with Japanese who were generally smaller than Westerners. Therefore, we investigated the dimensions and morphology of the normal Japanese glenoid and compared with the normal French glenoid. MATERIALS AND METHODS One hundred Japanese shoulders without glenoid lesions (50 men and 50 women) were investigated and compared with 100 French shoulders (50 men and 50 women). Computed tomography was performed with 3-dimensional image reconstruction and images were analyzed using Glenosys software. Glenoid parameters (width, height, retroversion and inclination) were compared between Japanese and French subjects. RESULTS In Japanese subjects, the mean glenoid width was 25.5mm, height was 33.3mm, retroversion was 2.3° and inclination was 11.6° superiorly. In French subjects, the mean glenoid width was 26.7mm, height was 35.4mm, retroversion was 6.0° and inclination was 10.4° superiorly. Glenoid width and height were significantly smaller in Japanese subjects than French subjects (P=0.001 and P<0.001), while retroversion was significantly greater in French subjects (P<0.001). There was no significant difference of inclination. CONCLUSIONS These findings will help surgeons to identify suitable patients for RSA and perform the procedure with appropriate preoperative planning. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE IV: retrospective or historical series.

Abstract
There are many bone block procedures described to treat glenoid bone defects in anterior shoulder instability and most of these techniques apparently result in anatomic reconstruction. However, anatomic restoration of the biconcave glenoid morphometry for bone defects in patients with anterior shoulder instability is nearly impossible.

Abstract
PURPOSE To use magnetic resonance imaging to determine the influence of the labrum on both the osseous version and effective diameter of the glenoid. METHODS This was a retrospective, cross-sectional study of patients with shoulder pain who underwent MRI between February 2014 and February 2015. The morphology of the glenoid labrum and glenoid was scanned with a 3-T magnetic resonance imaging scanner, and variables were measured by use of IntelliSpace PACS Enterprise. Patients were included if they were aged between 18 and 40 years and the radiologist reported a normal glenohumeral joint or if they were young patients aged less than 30 years with acute traumatic isolated partial- or full-thickness tears of the rotator cuff with a history of symptoms of less than 3 months. A pilot study was conducted with 3 observers and 3 repeated measurements at intervals to determine the interobserver and intraobserver reliability. Data analysis included descriptive statistics of measured variables, as well as paired Student t tests to determine the relative difference between labral and osseous morphometric variables. RESULTS Excellent inter-rater reliability (0.95-0.96) and intrarater reliability (0.93-0.98) were obtained in the pilot study of 20 patients. The study population was composed of 100 patients with a mean age of 37.3 years (standard deviation [SD], 11.8 years), having a gender distribution of 56 male and 44 female patients; there were 53 right and 47 left shoulders. The glenoid osseous version measured -5.7° (SD, 5.3°), and the labral version measured -10° (SD, 5.5°); the glenoid osseous diameter measured 28.0 mm (SD, 3.3 mm), and the labral diameter measured 31.9 mm (SD, 3.2 mm). The labrum significantly increased the version by 4.3° (P = .001) and significantly increased the diameter by 3.9 mm (P = .001). CONCLUSIONS The results of this study showed that the labrum increased the effective glenoid version by 75% (4.3° of retroversion) and the effective glenoid diameter by 14% (3.9 mm). LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level IV, prognostic case series.

[PMID: 28131692 DOI: 10.1016/j.jse.2016.10.027] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/09/2016] [Revised: 10/19/2016] [Accepted: 10/26/2016] [Indexed: 02/01/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Computed tomography (CT) scans are often obtained before total shoulder arthroplasty to assess glenoid deformity. To allow correction of the slice axis into the plane of the scapula, these scans have typically required inclusion of the entirety of the scapula. The purpose of this study was to determine whether inclusion of the medial border and inferior angle is necessary for accurate measurement of scapular version, inclination, and humeral subluxation. METHODS Fourteen CT scans in preoperative total shoulder arthroplasty patients with Walch B2 type glenoids underwent a standardized measurement protocol. Glenoid version, inclination, depth, and humeral subluxation were measured on 2-dimensional CT images corrected to the plane of the scapula. These measurements were then repeated in randomized, blinded fashion after subtracting 12.5%, 25%, and 50% of the scapula from the medial border and 12.5%, 25%, and 50% of the scapula from the inferior angle. RESULTS Measurement of retroversion did not significantly differ between measurement of the full scapula and measurement of any of the incomplete scapulas, with the exception of the subtraction of 50% of the scapular width, which caused retroversion to be overestimated by 4.7° (P = .006) and led to inaccurate measurement of subluxation and glenoid depth. CONCLUSION If at least 8 cm of scapular width is imaged on a CT scan, accurate glenoid measurements can be made. Even if 50% of scapular height is not imaged, accurate measurements can be made. Failure to include the medial border or inferior angle does not preclude accurate glenoid measurement.
