Functionality, complications, and survivorship of total shoulder arthroplasty in patients under 60 years old. J Orthop 2024; 55:59-63. [PMID: 38655539 PMCID: PMC11035013 DOI: 10.1016/j.jor.2024.04.007] [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: 03/27/2024] [Accepted: 04/09/2024] [Indexed: 04/26/2024] Open
Abstract
Background As total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) expands to younger patients, it is crucial to weigh the benefits of early intervention against potential complications and implant longevity in patients under 60 years of age. This study examines mid-term outcomes in this patient subset. Methods Between 2009 and 2019, a retrospective analysis was conducted on 50 patients (25 male, 25 female) who underwent anatomic TSA (TSA) under the age of 60 with minimum 5 years follow-up. Demographic and baseline variables were extracted from medical records. Pre-operative and post-operative outcomes of range of motion (ROM) and strength were recorded. Patient-reported outcomes (PROs) were obtained. Results Fifty patients were followed for an average of 8.7 ± 2.4 years, having a mean age of 54.1 ± 8.4 years. Comparison of pre-operative and post-operative measurements revealed significant improvements in active ROM, including external rotation (ER) (p < 0.0001), forward elevation (FE) (p < 0.0001), and internal rotation (IR) (p = 0.0001). There were significant improvements in functional strength scores, including ER (p = 0.0005) and FE (p = 0.0002). PROs included visual analog scale (VAS) (2.2 ± 2.6), Single Assessment Numeric Evaluation (SANE) (80.3 ± 17.6), American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) score (76.4 ± 22.8), and Simple Shoulder Test (SST) (8.9 ± 3.2). The 5-year and 10-year implant survival rates were found to be 98.0 % and 83.3 %, respectively. There were 7 postoperative complications in 5 patients (14.0 %), including glenoid loosening (n = 2), infection (n = 1), atraumatic instability (n = 1), lesser tuberosity avulsion (n = 1), painful arthroplasty (n = 1) and traumatic rotator cuff insufficiency (n = 1). Subsequently, all 5 patients underwent revision shoulder arthroplasty at an average of 6.5 years after the initial procedure. Conclusion Positive mid to long-term outcomes, including significant improvements in ROM and strength, along with high 5-year and 10-year implant survival rates support TSA as an effective treatment option for patients under the age of 60.

Cemented vs. press-fit humeral stems: a matched cohort analysis at a mean follow-up of 10 years. J Shoulder Elbow Surg 2024; 33:1755-1761. [PMID: 38242528 DOI: 10.1016/j.jse.2023.11.029] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/13/2023] [Revised: 11/23/2023] [Accepted: 11/27/2023] [Indexed: 01/21/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Although cementation of humeral stems has long been considered the gold standard for anatomic shoulder arthroplasty (aTSA), cementless, or press-fit, fixation offers a relatively cheaper and less demanding alternative, particularly in the setting of a revision procedure. However, this approach has been accompanied by concerns of implant loosening and high rates of radiolucency. In the present study, we performed a propensity-matched comparison of clinical and patient-reported outcomes between cemented and cementless fixation techniques for aTSA. We hypothesized that cemented fixation of the humeral component would have significantly better implant survival while providing comparable functional outcomes at final follow-up. METHODS This study was a retrospective comparison of 50 shoulders undergoing aTSA: 25 using cemented humeral fixation vs. 25 using press-fit humeral fixation. Patients in the 2 groups were propensity matched according to age, sex, and preoperative American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons Standardized Shoulder Assessment Form (ASES) score. Primary outcome measures included range of motion (ROM) (forward elevation, external rotation, internal rotation), patient-reported outcomes (ASES, Simple Shoulder Test [SST], visual analog scale [VAS]), and implant survival. RESULTS At baseline, the 2 fixation groups were similar in regard to age, sex, body mass index, preoperative ASES score, and surgical indication. Mean follow-up was 11.7 ± 4.95 years in the cemented cohort and 9.13 ± 3.77 years in the press-fit cohort (P = .045). Both groups demonstrated significant improvements postoperatively in all included ROM and patient-reported outcomes. However, press-fit patients reported significantly better VAS, ASES, and SST scores. Mean VAS pain score was 1.1 ± 1.8 in press-fit patients and 3.2 ± 3.0 in cemented patients (P = .005). The mean ASES score was 87.7 ± 12.4 in press-fit patients and 69.5 ± 22.7 in cemented patients (P = .002). Lastly, the mean SST score was 9.8 ± 3.1 in press-fit patients and 7.7 ± 3.7 in cemented patients (P = .040). Both fixation techniques provided lasting implant survivorship with only a single revision operation in each of the cohorts. CONCLUSION Herein, we provide a propensity-matched, long-term comparison of patients receiving anatomic shoulder arthroplasty stratified according to humeral stem fixation technique. The results of this analysis illustrate that both types of humeral fixation techniques yield durable and significant improvements in shoulder function with similar rates of survival at 10 years of follow-up.

Cureus 2024; 16:e57866. [PMID: 38725735 PMCID: PMC11081529 DOI: 10.7759/cureus.57866] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 03/31/2024] [Indexed: 05/12/2024] Open
Abstract
Traditional practice favors total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) for the treatment of primary glenohumeral osteoarthritis (PGHO) with an intact rotator cuff; however, the indications for reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) have expanded to include PGHO. The purpose of this systematic review is to compare the mean differences in the range of motion and patient-reported outcomes between the TSA and RSA with an intact rotator cuff and to analyze the subgroup of the Walch type B2 glenoid. This IRB-exempt, PROSPERO-registered systematic review strictly followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis Protocols (PRISMA-P) guidelines. A literature search of five databases revealed 493 articles, of which 10 were included for quantitative synthesis. Level III evidence studies with the diagnosis of PGHO and ≥2 years of follow-up were included. Studies without preoperative and postoperative data were excluded. The Newcastle-Ottawa scale was used to evaluate the methodologic quality of the included studies. Preoperative and postoperative range of motion and patient-reported outcomes were collected. The random-effects model was employed, and p < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. There were a total of 544 and 329 studies in the TSA group and RSA group, respectively. The mean age in the TSA group and RSA groups were 65.36 ± 7.06 and 73.12 ± 2.40, respectively (p = 0.008). The percentages of males in the TSA and RSA groups were 73.2% and 51.1%, respectively (p = 0.02). The mean differences in forward elevation, external rotation in adduction, internal rotation scale, visual analog scale (VAS), American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) score, and Single Assessment Numeric Evaluation (SANE) scores were improved for both groups with no significant differences between the two. There were 9.6 times the revisions in the TSA group (8.8% vs. 0.91%; p = 0.014) and 1.5 times the complications in the TSA group (3.68% vs. 2.4%; p = 0.0096). Two hundred and forty-two glenoids were identified as Walch type B2 (126 in the TSA group and 116 in the RSA group). The mean ages in the B2 subgroup were 68.20 ± 3.25 and 73.03 ± 1.49 for the TSA and RSA, respectively (p = 0.25). The percentages of males in the B2 subgroup were 74.6% and 46.5% for the TSA and RSA groups, respectively (p = 0.0003). The ASES, SANE, forward elevation, and external rotation in the adduction results were descriptively summarized for this subgroup, with average mean differences of 49.0 and 51.2, 45.7 and 66.1, 77.6° and 58.6°, and 38.6° and 34.1° for the TSA and RSA groups, respectively. In the setting of primary glenohumeral osteoarthritis with an intact rotator cuff, the RSA has a similar range of motion and clinical outcomes but lower complication and revision rates as compared to the TSA. This may hold true in the setting of the B2 glenoid, although a high-powered study on this subgroup is required. Anatomic shoulder arthroplasty maintains an important role in select patients. Further studies are required to better elucidate the role of glenoid bone loss and posterior humeral head subluxation with regard to implant choice.

J Shoulder Elbow Surg 2024; 33:55-64. [PMID: 37385424 DOI: 10.1016/j.jse.2023.05.027] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/30/2023] [Revised: 05/02/2023] [Accepted: 05/13/2023] [Indexed: 07/01/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The success of traditional shoulder hemiarthroplasty (HA) with cobalt-chromium heads is limited by painful glenoid erosion with problematic bone loss. Hemiprostheses with pyrolytic carbon (PyC) heads have shown reduced glenoid erosion in experimental laboratory studies. Few in vivo data are available. METHODS We performed a single-center consecutive cohort study of 31 of 34 patients (91%) who underwent PyC HA between September 2013 and June 2018. In 11 of these patients, concentric glenoid reaming was additionally performed. The mean follow-up period was 5.5 years (range, 3.5-7 years). Standardized radiographs were taken, and clinical function (Constant score) and pain (visual analog scale score) were recorded. Anteroposterior radiographs were analyzed according to an established method by 2 independent observers: A line parallel to the superior and inferior glenoid rim was translated to the most medial point of the glenoid surface. A further parallel line was placed on the spinoglenoid notch. The distance between these 2 lines was measured. Measurements were scaled using the known diameter of the implanted humeral head component. To assess eccentric erosion, anteroposterior and axial images were classified according to Favard and Walch, respectively. RESULTS Mean medial glenoid erosion measured 1.4 mm at an average of 5.5 years of follow-up. In the first year, 0.8 mm of erosion was observed, significantly more than the average erosion per year of 0.3 mm (P < .001). Mean erosion per year was 0.4 mm in patients with glenoid reaming vs. 0.2 mm in those without reaming (P = .09). An evolution of glenoid morphology was observed in 6 patients, of whom 4 had a progression of the erosion grade. The prosthesis survival rate was 100%. The Constant score improved from 45.0 preoperatively to 78.0 at 2-3 years postoperatively and 78.8 at latest follow-up (5.5 years postoperatively) (P < .001). The pain score on a visual analog scale decreased from 6.7 (range, 3-9) preoperatively to 2.2 (range, 0-8) at latest follow-up (P < .001). There was a weak correlation (r = 0.37) between erosion and pain improvement (P = .039) and no correlation between erosion and change in Constant score (r = 0.06). CONCLUSION PyC HA caused little glenoid erosion and a sustained improvement in clinical function in our cohort at mid-term follow-up. PyC demonstrates a biphasic development of glenoid erosion, with a reduced rate after the first year. PyC HA should therefore be considered as an alternative to cobalt-chromium HA and to anatomical total shoulder arthroplasty for patients with a high risk of glenoid component complications.

The impact of glenoid parameters and implant overstuffing on functional outcomes of shoulder hemiarthroplasty in patients with glenohumeral joint arthritis. EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF ORTHOPAEDIC SURGERY & TRAUMATOLOGY : ORTHOPEDIE TRAUMATOLOGIE 2023; 33:3531-3538. [PMID: 37212913 DOI: 10.1007/s00590-023-03584-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/10/2023] [Accepted: 05/10/2023] [Indexed: 05/23/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE The outcomes of shoulder hemiarthroplasty are highly dependent on the baseline glenoid morphology and the rotator cuff integrity. The objective of this study was to assess whether certain glenoid parameters and implant overstuffing are associated with worse clinical outcomes following shoulder hemiarthroplasty. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed 25 patients who underwent shoulder hemiarthroplasty for shoulder arthritis, with a mean follow-up of 5.3 years. The baseline glenoid morphology, the glenoid wear rate, the proximal humeral head migration and implant overstuffing were evaluated radiologically in all patients. The radiological parameters were correlated with the functional outcomes. RESULTS The Constant-Murley score, the ASES score, and the OSS score were significantly better for patients with a concentric baseline glenoid compared to those with an eccentric glenoid. The Constant-Murley score and the ASES score were also improved in patients without implant overstuffing compared to patients with implant overstuffing (p < 0.05). However, glenoid wear was not associated with worse functional outcomes (p = 0.23 for Constant-Murley score, p = 0.15 for ASES score and p = 0.27 for OSS score). Last, a worse Constant-Murley score was strongly correlated with proximal humeral head migration (p < 0.001), while worse ASES and OSS scores were moderately correlated with proximal humeral head migration (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION Our findings indicate that the results of hemiarthroplasty can be improved through careful selection of patients upon the baseline glenoid type morphology and proper implant sizing to avoid implant overstuffing. Moreover, glenoid wear is not associated with worse clinical outcomes, therefore shoulder hemiarthroplasty should be reconsidered as an alternative in younger patients with shoulder arthritis.

Abstract
Humeral implants for anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty and hemiarthroplasty have typically used spherical humeral heads that have a uniform diameter and radius of curvature. However, the native humeral head has a more elliptical morphology, which has spurred interest in nonspherical implant designs. Cadaveric studies indicate that the native humeral head diameter is 10% longer in the superior-inferior plane than the anterior-posterior plane and has a radius of curvature that is approximately 8% greater. An elliptical implant that more closely replicates native anatomy may allow for more accurate coverage of the humeral resection surface with less implant overhang and risk of overstuffing. Biomechanical evidence suggests that an elliptical implant yields glenohumeral kinematics that mimic the native joint, and early clinical results are promising. As clinical research continues to emerge, it will become clearer whether encouraging cadaveric, biomechanical, and early clinical data translates to meaningful sustained improvements in patient outcomes.

Survivorship of shoulder arthroplasty in young patients with osteoarthritis: an analysis of the Australian Orthopaedic Association National Joint Replacement Registry. J Shoulder Elbow Surg 2023; 32:2105-2114. [PMID: 37178962 DOI: 10.1016/j.jse.2023.03.024] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/07/2022] [Revised: 03/02/2023] [Accepted: 03/22/2023] [Indexed: 05/15/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The treatment of shoulder osteoarthritis in the young patient remains challenging. The higher functional demands and higher expectations of the young patient cohort are often coupled with increased failure and revision rates. Consequently, shoulder surgeons are faced with a unique challenge with implant selection. The aim of this study was to compare the survivorship and reasons for revision of 5 classes of shoulder arthroplasty in patients aged <55 years with a primary diagnosis of osteoarthritis by use of data from a large national arthroplasty registry. METHODS The study population included all primary shoulder arthroplasty procedures undertaken for osteoarthritis in patients aged <55 years and reported to the registry between September 1999 and December 2021. Procedures were grouped into the following classes: total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA), hemiarthroplasty resurfacing (HRA), hemiarthroplasty stemmed metallic head (HSMH), hemiarthroplasty stemmed pyrocarbon head (HSPH), and reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (RTSA). The outcome measure was the cumulative percent revision, which was defined using Kaplan-Meier estimates of survivorship to describe the time to the first revision. Hazard ratios (HRs) were calculated from Cox proportional hazards models, adjusting for age and sex, to compare revision rates among groups. RESULTS There were 1564 shoulder arthroplasty procedures in patients aged <55 years, of which 361 (23.1%) were HRA, 70 (4.5%) were HSMH, 159 (10.2%) were HSPH, 714 (45.7%) were TSA, and 260 (16.6%) were RTSA. HRA had a higher rate of revision than RTSA after 1 year (HRA = 2.51 (95% CI 1.30, 4.83), P = .005), with no difference prior to that time. In addition, HSMH had a higher rate of revision than RTSA for the entire period (HR, 2.69 [95% confidence interval, 1.28-5.63], P = .008). There was no significant difference in the rate of revision for HSPH and TSA when they were compared with RTSA. Glenoid erosion was the most common cause of revision for HRA (28.6% of revisions) and HSMH (50%). Instability/dislocation was the leading cause of revision for RTSA (41.7%) and HSPH (28.6%), and for TSA, the majority of revisions were for either instability/dislocation (20.6%) or loosening (18.6%). CONCLUSION These results should be interpreted within the context of the lack of availability of long-term data on RTSA and HSPH stems. RTSA outperforms all implants regarding revision rates at mid-term follow-up. The high early dislocation rate associated with RTSA, as well as the lack of revision options available to address this, indicates that careful selection of patients and a greater appreciation of anatomic risk factors are needed in the future.

Abstract
Introduction Increasing numbers of young patients receive shoulder replacements. Greater information on outcomes is needed to inform implant choice. The aim of this study was to investigate the survivorship and clinical effectiveness of hemiarthroplasty and anatomical total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) in patients younger than 65 years. Method A systematic review was performed of MEDLINE, EMBASE, CENTRAL, The Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews and National Joint Registry reports. The primary outcomes were implant survival and change in perioperative shoulder scores. Results Meta-analysis of implant survivorship was performed of six studies reporting on 416 patients. Implant survival was 86.1% (72.1,100) at 10 years for hemiarthroplasty and 82.3% (64.6,100) for TSA. 20 year survival was 80.0% for hemiarthroplasty (72.5,87.4) and 75.0% (56.9,93.1) for TSA. Ten studies were included in the meta-analysis of shoulder scores, multiple instruments were used. The standardised mean difference between pre-operative and post-operative shoulder scores was 2.15 (1.95, 2.35) for TSA at 4.2-4.9 years, and 2.72 (1.98,3.47) for hemiarthroplasty at 3.8-6 years. Conclusion Over 80% of shoulder replacements last more than 10 years, and 75% last more than 20 years. Significant improvements in shoulder scores are shown at all time points.

BACKGROUND In the past decade, the number of anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty (aTSA) procedures has steadily increased. Patients over 65 years of age comprise the vast majority of recipients, and outcomes have been well documented; however, patients are opting for definitive surgical treatment at younger ages.We aim to report on the effects of age on the long-term clinical outcomes following aTSA. METHODS Among the patients who underwent TSA, 119 shoulders were retrospectively analyzed. Preoperative and postoperative clinical outcome data were collected. Linear regression analysis (univariate and multivariate) was conducted to evaluate the associations of clinical outcomes with age. Kaplan-Meier curves and Cox regression analyses were performed to evaluate implant survival. RESULTS At final follow-up, patients of all ages undergoing aTSA experienced significant and sustained improvements in all primary outcome measures compared with preoperative values. Based on multivariate analysis, age at the time of surgery was a significant predictor of postoperative outcomes. Excellent implant survival was observed over the course of this study, and Cox regression survival analysis indicated age and sex to not be associated with an increased risk of implant failure. CONCLUSIONS When controlling for sex and follow-up duration, older age was associated with significantly better patient-reported outcome measures. Despite this difference, we noted no significant effects on range of motion or implant survival. Level of evidence: IV.

Shoulder joint arthroplasty in young patients: Analysis of 8742 patients from the Australian Orthopaedic Association National Joint Replacement Registry. Shoulder Elbow 2023; 15:41-52. [PMID: 37692877 PMCID: PMC10492526 DOI: 10.1177/17585732211058717] [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: 05/24/2021] [Revised: 10/17/2021] [Accepted: 10/18/2021] [Indexed: 09/12/2023]
Abstract
Background Shoulder replacement is a reliable treatment for the relief of pain and improvement of function in patients with glenohumeral arthritis, rotator cuff arthropathy, osteonecrosis and fracture. Limited data is available comparing revision rates for the different types of shoulder replacement when used in younger patients. This study aims to compare the survivorship of hemi resurfacing, stemmed hemiarthroplasty, total shoulder arthroplasty and reverse total shoulder arthroplasty in younger patients using data from a large national arthroplasty registry. Methods Data from the Australian Orthopaedic Association National Joint Replacement Registry was obtained for the period 16 April 2004-31 December 2018. The study population included all shoulder arthroplasty patients aged <65 years. These were stratified into two groups: <55 years and 55-64 years. A total of 8742 primary shoulder arthroplasty procedures were analysed (1936 procedures in the <55 years and 6806 in the 55-64 years age group). Results In the <55 years age group, there was no difference in revision rate for total shoulder arthroplasty versus reverse total shoulder arthroplasty at any time point. Reverse total shoulder arthroplasty had a lower revision rate after six months when compared to hemi resurfacing (HRA) (p = 0.031). Also, reverse total shoulder arthroplasty had a higher early rate of revision in the first 12 months compared to hemiarthroplasty (p = 0.018). However, from 2 years reverse total shoulder arthroplasty had a lower revision rate overall (p = 0.029).In the 55-64 years patient age group, reverse total shoulder arthroplasty had a lower earlier revision rate. This was statistically significant compared to hemi resurfacing (HRA) (p = 0.028), hemiarthroplasty (p = 0.049) and total shoulder arthroplasty (p < 0.001). Conclusion This study demonstrated that for patients aged <55 years there was no significant difference in the rate of revision when total shoulder arthroplasty and reverse total shoulder arthroplasty were compared. reverse total shoulder arthroplasty had a lower rate of revision when compared to hemi resurfacing and hemiarthroplasty after 2 years. reverse total shoulder arthroplasty had the lowest comparative revision rate in patients aged 55-64 years overall.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Compared with the overall incidence of shoulder arthroplasty (SA), the relative risk and burden of revision may vary among patients specifically 40-50 years of age and less than 40 years of age. Our aim was to investigate the incidence of primary anatomic total SA and reverse SA, rate of revision within 1 year, and determine the associated economic burden in patients younger than 50 years. METHODS A total of 509 patients less than 50 years old who underwent SA were included, using a national private insurance database. Costs were based on the grossed covered payment. Multivariate analyses were performed to identify risk factors associated with revisions within 1 year of the index procedure. RESULTS SA incidence in patients less than 50 years old increased from 2.21 to 2.5 per 100,000 patients from 2017 to 2018. The overall revision rate was 3.9% with a mean time to revision of 96.3 days. Diabetes was a significant risk factor for revision (P = .043). Surgeries performed in patients less than 40 years old cost more than those performed in patients aged 40-50 years for both primary ($41,943 ± $23,842 vs. $39,477 ± $20,874) and revision cases ($40,370 ± $21,385 vs. $31,669 ± $10,430). CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrates that the incidence of SA in patients less than 50 years old is higher than previously reported in the literature and most commonly reported for primary osteoarthritis. Given the high incidence of SA and subsequent high early revision rate in this subset population, our data portend a large associated socioeconomic burden. Policymakers and surgeons should use these data for implementing training programs focused on joint sparing techniques.

Abstract
Ream-and-run arthroplasty can improve pain and function in patients with glenohumeral arthritis while avoiding the complications and activity restrictions associated with a prosthetic glenoid component. However, stiffness is a known complication after ream-and-run arthroplasty and can lead to repeat procedures such as a manipulation under anesthesia (MUA) or open surgical revision. The objective of this study was to determine risk factors associated with repeat procedures indicated for postoperative stiffness after ream-and-run arthroplasty. Methods We conducted a retrospective review of our shoulder arthroplasty database to identify patients who underwent ream-and-run arthroplasty and determined which patients underwent subsequent repeat procedures (MUA and/or open revision) indicated for postoperative stiffness. The minimum follow-up was 2 years. We collected baseline demographic information and preoperative and 2-year patient-reported outcome scores and analyzed preoperative radiographs. Univariate and multivariate analyses determined the factors significantly associated with repeat procedures to treat postoperative stiffness. Results There were 340 patients who underwent ream-and-run arthroplasty. The mean Simple Shoulder Test (SST) scores for all patients improved from 5.0 ± 2.4 preoperatively to 10.2 ± 2.6 postoperatively (p < 0.001). Twenty-six patients (7.6%) underwent open revision for stiffness. An additional 35 patients (10.3%) underwent MUA. Univariate analysis found younger age (p = 0.001), female sex (p = 0.034), lower American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) class (p = 0.045), posterior decentering on preoperative radiographs (p = 0.010), and less passive forward elevation at the time of discharge after ream-and-run arthroplasty (p < 0.001) to be significant risk factors for repeat procedures. Multivariate analysis found younger age (p = 0.040), ASA class 1 compared with class 3 (p = 0.020), and less passive forward elevation at discharge (p < 0.001) to be independent risk factors for repeat procedures. Of the patients who underwent open revision for stiffness, 69.2% had multiple positive cultures for Cutibacterium. Conclusions Younger age, ASA class 1 compared with class 3, and less passive forward elevation in the immediate postoperative period were independent risk factors for repeat procedures to treat postoperative stiffness after ream-and-run arthroplasty. Level of Evidence Prognostic Level III. See Instructions for Authors for a complete description of levels of evidence.

Abstract
Background The appropriate surgical treatment option for young and active patients undergoing shoulder arthroplasty for arthritis remains questionable. Pyrolitic carbon (pyrocarbon) has been shown to improve implant longevity and decrease wear when in contact with cartilage or bone. The present systematic review aimed to evaluate clinical and radiological outcomes as well as the survivorship of pyrocarbon shoulder implants. Methods The PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) guidelines were followed. A systematic search was performed using the MEDLINE, EMBASE and Cochrane Library databases. All the studies dealing with the use of pyrolitic shoulder implants were pooled, data of interest were extracted and statistically analyzed through meta-analysis. Results A total of 9 studies were included for a total of 477 shoulders treated. The overall mean rate of survival of the implants was 93.4 ± 5.8% and 80% ± 26.5% at 2 years and final follow up, respectively, while resulting 82.4% ± 22.1% and 92.3% ± 3.5% for PISA (pyrocarbon interposition shoulder arthroplasty) and hemi-arthroplasty/hemi-resurfacing, respectively. Conclusions Pyrolitic carbon shoulder implants showed good survivorship and clinical outcomes at an early to early-midterm follow-up. More studies and better-designed trials are needed in order to enrich the evidence on long-term outcomes and comparison with other shoulder replacement options for young and active patients.

Abstract
Anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) has become more common as surgical indications have expanded. However, the burden of revision shoulder arthroplasty has inevitably increased as well. Multiple studies have examined the use of reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (rTSA) as a revision option for failed anatomic TSA with a massive irreparable rotator cuff tear. Successful reconstruction of failed TSA with rTSA requires sufficient glenoid bone to place the glenoid segment, enough proximal humeral bone to allow for implantation of the humeral component, and sufficient tension in the soft-tissue envelope to ensure implant stability. In this article, we describe our preferred rTSA revision technique for the treatment of a failed TSA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The primary purpose of this study was to compare 2-year anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) functional and radiographic outcomes between Walch type A and B glenoids treated with an all-polyethylene glenoid designed for hybrid fixation with peripheral cement and central osseous integration. The secondary purpose was to evaluate outcomes based on central peg technique. The hypotheses were that there would be no difference in short-term radiographic or functional outcome scores based on preoperative glenoid morphology or central peg technique. METHODS We performed a multicenter retrospective review of patients who underwent TSA with the same hybrid all-polyethylene glenoid and had minimum 2-year follow-up. Patient-reported outcomes and radiographic outcomes were analyzed based on preoperative Walch morphology and central peg technique. Radiographic analysis included preoperative glenoid morphology; preoperative and postoperative glenoid version, glenoid inclination, and posterior humeral head subluxation; and postoperative glenoid radiolucencies according to the Wirth and Lazarus classifications. RESULTS A total of 266 patients with a mean age of 64.9 ± 8.2 years were evaluated at a mean of 28 months postoperatively. Postoperatively, there were significant improvements in all functional outcome measures (P < .001), range-of-motion measures (forward elevation, external rotation at 0°, external rotation at 90°, internal rotation by spinal level, and internal rotation at 90°; P < .001), and strength measures (Constant, external rotation, and modified belly press; P < .001). There were no clinically meaningful differences in functional outcomes or statistically significant differences in radiographic appearance between Walch type A and B glenoids. Subgroup analysis revealed that glenoids with a cemented central peg had the worst radiographic outcomes based on Lazarus scoring. CONCLUSION Patients undergoing TSA with a hybrid in-line pegged glenoid have excellent clinical outcomes at short-term follow-up regardless of preoperative glenoid morphology. Different central peg techniques do not appear to play a significant role in the risk of glenoid component lucencies at 2 years postoperatively.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Glenohumeral arthritis is a degenerative disease of the shoulder joint. There is limited evidence in the literature in superiority of outcomes between total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) and hemiarthroplasty (HA) for patients when the rotator cuff is intact. The purpose of this systematic review was to compare patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) and rate of complication between these 2 interventions in patients with primary glenohumeral arthritis and an intact rotator cuff. Previous systematic reviews have focused only on results from randomized controlled trials, demonstrating mixed outcomes in PROMs and no difference in postoperative complications or rate of revision. Our study is the first, to our knowledge, to assess all comparative studies including prospective and retrospective observational studies, assessing a combined 1317 patients. Using the ratio of means, data from different PROMs were pooled to analyze and compare the total combined relative effect change following intervention. METHODS We undertook literature review of the reference databases until March 2021. We included randomized controlled trials in addition to comparative observational studies and case series (more than 10 patients). Study participants were adults who had primary glenohumeral arthritis with an intact rotator cuff. Meta-analysis was performed by the ratio of means for PROMs and risk ratio for revision and complication data. RESULTS Comparing clinical outcome of TSA against HA from 10 studies, meta-analyses using ratio of means demonstrated an 8% significantly improved relative increase in the postoperative PROMs in the TSA cohort (ratio of means 1.08, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.04-1.12, P < .01). The TSA cohort additionally demonstrated a significantly lower revision rate (relative risk 1.84, 95% CI 1.05-3.24, P = .03). Although the risk of complication was nonsignificant, pooling revision and complications data revealed a 2-fold increased risk in the HA group compared with TSA (relative risk 2.09, 95% CI 1.17-3.74, P = .01). CONCLUSIONS In patients with primary glenohumeral osteoarthritis with an intact rotator cuff, TSA is favored to HA in terms of clinical outcome, risk of revision surgery, and postoperative complications.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the long-term clinical efficacy of and satisfaction with integrative Korean medicine (KM) treatment in patients with shoulder osteoarthritis (SOA). We conducted a prospective observational study of patients with SOA. Patients aged 19 years and older who underwent inpatient treatment for more than 1 week were eligible for enrollment in the study. The primary evaluation index was the numeric rating scale for shoulder pain. Sub-evaluation indices included the Shoulder Pain and Disability Index for shoulder function, EuroQol-5-dimension score for overall quality of life, and Patient Global Impression of Change. Outcome measures were assessed at admission, discharge, and follow-up. For the follow-up questionnaire survey, the following information was collected: current status, surgery after discharge, reasons for finding integrative KM treatment satisfactory/unsatisfactory, and quality of life after discharge. In total, 186 patients were enrolled in the primary analysis, and 103 patients completed the follow-up survey. The mean number of days of follow-up was 1019 ± 439. Compared with the baseline, the mean differences in the numeric rating scale and Shoulder Pain and Disability Index were 3.05 ± 0.34 and 36.06 ± 5.53, respectively. Regarding the Patient Global Impression of Change, 89 out of 103 (86.4%) patients chose "minimally improved" or better. Furthermore, the EuroQol-5-dimension score also increased, showing an improvement of health-related quality of life after treatment. Integrative KM treatment is a potential option for reducing pain severity and improving function and health-related quality of life in patients with SOA. Prospective randomized studies would support this finding for the next step.

Background In vitro data demonstrate the potential benefits of the pyrocarbon as a bearing material against cartilage or bone. And pyrocarbon-free interposition arthroplasty has been used with positive outcomes for over 10 years for hand and wrist joint replacements. This study reports the midterm results of a Pyrocarbon Interposition Shoulder Arthroplasty (PISA) in primary and secondary glenohumeral osteoarthritis and in avascular osteonecrosis. Methods This prospective noncontrolled, multicenter study included 67 consecutive patients who underwent PISA in France and Sweden. Results A cohort of 48 patients, aged 50 ± 12 years, was available for clinical assessment at a mean follow-up of 67.6 ± 9.3 months. A favorable change was reported with a mean absolute Constant score improvement of 32 ± 20 points. The highest Constant score improvement was observed in patients with avascular osteonecrosis (42 ± 18 points; P ≤ .0001). Between the earliest and the latest follow-up, radiographic analyses revealed only 2 major glenoid erosions and 4 tuberosity thinnings and thus that 86.4% of 44 shoulders remained stable with no or minor radiologic evolutions. The survival rate was 84 % at 65 months of follow-up considering all causes of revision. Conclusion The radiographic findings seem to confirm the interest of pyrocarbon in preserving bony surfaces. But the risk of tuberosity thinning suggests considering the use of PISA with caution in most degenerative glenohumeral joint pathologies, although the midterm outcomes highlight PISA as a suitable solution for patients presenting with posttraumatic osteonecrosis without malunion of the tuberosities and with an intact rotator cuff.

A validated algorithm using current literature to judge the appropriateness of anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty utilizing the RAND/UCLA appropriateness method. J Shoulder Elbow Surg 2022; 31:e332-e345. [PMID: 35066118 DOI: 10.1016/j.jse.2021.12.025] [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: 10/07/2021] [Revised: 12/06/2021] [Accepted: 12/12/2021] [Indexed: 02/01/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Currently, appropriateness criteria evaluating when to perform total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) is lacking. In the absence of society guidelines and limited quality evidence, the RAND/University California in Los Angeles (UCLA) method provides a suitable alternative to evaluate appropriateness and assist in clinical decision making. Given the rise in utilization, appropriateness criteria for TSA have the potential to be an extremely powerful tool for improving quality of care and controlling costs. Thus, the goal of this study was to test explicit criteria to assess the appropriateness of TSA decision making using the RAND/UCLA appropriateness method. METHODS A review of recent scientific literature to gather available evidence about the use, effectiveness, efficiency, and the risks involved in surgical intervention was performed by a shoulder/elbow fellowship trained physician. Based on pertinent variables including age, rotator cuff status, previous surgical management, mobility, symptomatology, and imaging classifications, 186 clinical scenarios were created. Appropriateness criteria for TSA were developed using a modified Delphi method with a panel consisting of American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) members. A second panel of ASES members rated the same scenarios, with reliability testing performed to compare groups. RESULTS Panel members reached agreement in 40 (64%) indications. TSA was appropriate in 15 (24%) of indications. For patients with severe symptomatology, TSA was often appropriate for patients aged <75 years and inconclusive or inappropriate for patients aged >75 years. Among patients aged <65 years, TSA varied between appropriate and inconclusive, often dependent on Walch classification. For patients with moderate symptomatology, TSA was inappropriate or inconclusive for patients aged <65 or >75 years. When compared to the second panel's results, moderate agreement was obtained with a weighted kappa statistic of 0.56. CONCLUSIONS Using the RAND/UCLA method, ASES members created an appropriateness decision tree for pertinent patient variables. This presents the data in a manner that streamlines the clinical decision-making process and allows for rapid and more reliable determination of appropriateness for practitioners. The decision tree is based on a combination of clinical experience from high-volume ASES-member surgeons and a comprehensive review of current evidence. This tool can be used as part of a broader set of factors, including individual patient characteristics, prior studies, and expert opinion, to inform clinical decision making, improve quality of care, and control costs.

J Shoulder Elbow Surg 2022; 31:S63-S70. [PMID: 35341970 DOI: 10.1016/j.jse.2022.02.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/24/2021] [Revised: 01/26/2022] [Accepted: 02/04/2022] [Indexed: 02/01/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND We aimed to characterize the long-term clinical and radiographic outcomes of total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) in patients aged < 60 years. We hypothesized meaningful improvements in shoulder functionality and pain with TSA and an acceptably low rate of prosthesis complications and revisions. METHODS This was a retrospective cohort study of 29 patients (34 shoulders) undergoing TSA before age 60 years with a minimum follow-up period of 10 years. Shoulder range of motion, functionality (American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons and Simple Shoulder Test scores), and pain (visual analog scale score) were evaluated. Radiographs were assessed for lateral humeral offset, the acromiohumeral interval, and glenoid loosening. RESULTS The mean age of the patients was 54.4 ± 5.5 years (range, 35.5-59.8 years), with a mean follow-up period of 16.1 ± 4.5 years (range, 10.0-26.1 years). In patients aged < 60 years, TSA significantly improved forward elevation (from 119° ± 26° to 146° ± 21°, P = .0002), external rotation (from 21° ± 25° to 52° ± 15°, P = .0001), and internal rotation (from L5 to L1, P = .002). Additionally, TSA significantly increased American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons scores (from 32 ± 20 to 64 ± 27, P = .0008) and Simple Shoulder Test scores (from 3 ± 2 to 7 ± 4, P = .0004) and reduced visual analog scale pain scores (from 7 ± 3 to 3 ± 3, P = .0001). Radiographically, there was no significant difference in mean lateral humeral offset (13 ± 6 mm vs. 10 ± 12 mm, P = .472) or the mean acromiohumeral interval (20 ± 4.2 mm vs. 16 ± 6 mm, P = .061) between immediate postoperative and final follow-up radiographs. Radiographic evidence of glenoid loosening was noted in 2 patients. Complications occurred in 6 patients (17.6%), all of which were cases of aseptic glenoid loosening. Ultimately, 4 patients underwent conversion to a reverse TSA and 2 underwent arthroscopic glenoid removal. The rate of prosthesis survivorship was 97.1% (95% confidence interval [CI], 91.4%-100%) at 10 years, 85.4% (95% CI, 73.7%-97.2%) at 15 years, and 80.1% (95% CI, 65.1%-98.4%) at 20 years. DISCUSSION TSA consistently improved shoulder functionality and reduced pain while limiting the need for further revisions. These findings suggest that TSA is a viable treatment option for glenohumeral arthritis in younger patients.

Abstract
Anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty provides pain relief and improved quality of life for patients suffering from glenohumeral arthritis. The 10-year survival rate for these implants has been most recently reported at 96%. As the number of shoulder arthroplasties per year increases, it is important to evaluate factors associated with failure. Patient-specific variables such as age, sex, medical comorbidities, a history of previous shoulder surgery, and rotator cuff integrity can influence implant survival. Both surgeon and hospital volume have been shown to affect perioperative outcomes. Implant design and glenoid pathoanatomy are important structural considerations because both have a causal relationship with survivorship. Modifiable factors, such as smoking, body mass index, and alcohol or opioid consumption, should be addressed preoperatively when possible. Modifiable factors that pertain to surgery are equally as important; it is the responsibility of the surgeon to be aware of the reported outcomes for varying implants and technique-related pearls and pitfalls. For those perioperative factors that are nonmodifiable, it is prudent to counsel patients accordingly because these individuals may be more likely to require an eventual revision procedure.

J Shoulder Elbow Surg 2022; 31:971-977.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Trabecular Metal (TM)-backed glenoid implants were introduced for their theoretical ability to increase osseointegration while minimizing wear and the risk of loosening in total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA). Initial follow-up studies of TM-backed glenoids demonstrated high rates of metallic debris formation around the implant site, raising concerns about longevity. More recent data suggest that metallic debris formation may be less prevalent than previously reported and that the implants may have positive long-term outcomes regardless of debris. The goal of our study was to assess the clinical and radiographic outcomes at mid-term follow-up of TSA using a TM-backed glenoid implant placed with full backside support using an inset technique. We hypothesized that our clinical and radiographic outcomes would be good using this technique. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the charts of 39 patients who underwent 41 TSA procedures with a Zimmer Biomet TM-backed glenoid component performed by a single surgeon between January 2010 and March 2016. After exclusions for death unrelated to surgery and loss to follow-up, 35 patients (37 shoulders) with minimum 2-year clinical follow-up were included in the study. The glenoids were all placed in an inset fashion with full backside support. Clinical, patient-reported, and radiographic outcomes were analyzed. RESULTS The average follow-up period was 7.2 years (range, 2-11 years). At final follow-up, average shoulder elevation was 153° ± 22° and average external rotation was 53° ± 12°. The average American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons score was 86.8 ± 19.0, and the average visual analog scale score was 1.3 ± 2.4. Metallic debris was found in 9 shoulders (27%), and radiolucency was observed around the glenoid components in 13 shoulders (39%) on the final postoperative radiographs. Metallic debris and radiolucency findings were low in severity, with average grades of 0.32 (standard deviation, 0.54) and 0.39 (standard deviation, 0.50), respectively. There were no reoperations. CONCLUSION This study of 37 shoulders undergoing TSA with a TM-backed glenoid demonstrated 100% implant survivorship at an average follow-up of 7 years. Clinical outcomes were excellent despite the occurrence of some metallic debris formation. The findings suggest that a TM-backed glenoid component implanted in an inset fashion to achieve full backside support can provide good clinical and patient-reported outcomes in TSA patients at mid-term follow-up and suggest that continued consideration of the role of TM-backed glenoids and the optimal technique for implantation may be warranted.

Abstract
Aim This study aims to describe the shoulder arthroplasty options for young and active patients (<60 years old) with glenohumeral osteoarthritis. Methods A systematic review of the literature was conducted by searching on Pubmed database. Studies that reported outcomes of patients with glenohumeral arthritis, younger than 60 years, that underwent shoulder arthroplasty [(Hemiarthroplasty (HA), Hemiarthroplasty with biological resurfacing (HABR), Total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA), Reversed total shoulder arthroplasty (RSA)] were included. Data include patient characteristics, surgical technique, range of motion, pain relief, outcome scores, functional improvement, complications, need for and time to revision. Results A total of 1591 shoulders met the inclusion criteria. Shoulder arthroplasty provided improvements in terms of ROM on the 3 plains, forward flexion (FF), abduction (Abd) and external rotation (ER), in different proportions for each type of implant. Patients submitted to RSA had lower preoperative FF (p = 0.011), and the highest improvement (Δ) in Abd, but the worst in terms of ER (vsTSA, p = 0.05). HA had better ER postoperative values (vsRSA p = 0.049). Pain scores improved in all groups but no difference between them (p = 0.642). TSA and RSA groups had the best CS Δ (p = 0.012). HA group had higher complication rates (21.7%), RSA (19.4%, p = 0.034) and TSA (19.4%, p = 0.629) groups the lowest, and HABR had the highest rate of revisions (34.5%). Conclusions HA had the highest rate of complications and HABR unacceptable rates of revision. These implants have been replaced by modern TSAs, with RSA reserved for complex cases. Surgeons should be aware of the common pitfalls of each option.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to investigate glenoid wear in patients with humeral head replacement with a smaller humeral head, who were observed for >5 years, and to examine the relationship between radiographic changes and clinical outcome. METHODS In this study, 41 shoulders of 41 patients (13 men, 28 women) were followed up for >5 years. The mean patient age at the time of surgery was 70.5 years. The average follow-up period at short-term was 26.0 months, and intermediate-term was 66.5 months. We classified glenoid wear into four grades (i.e., Grade 0 to Grade 3). Age, sex, clinical scores, and range of motion were investigated in relation to the grade of glenoid wear. Radiographs of glenoid wear evaluated in the short-term were subsequently compared to radiographs obtained in the intermediate-term period. RESULTS At the final follow-up, 16 (39%) patients had Grade 0 wear, 11 (27%) patients had Grade 1 wear, 10 (24%) patients had Grade 2 wear, and 4 (10%) patients had Grade 3 wear. The University of California-Los Angeles score, Japanese Orthopaedic Association score, and active forward flexion were significantly lower in the Grade 3 patients; however, Grade 3 patients did not have significant pain. No significant difference in age, sex, Constant score, active external rotation, and active internal rotation in relation to the grade of glenoid wear was observed. In total, 25 (61%) patients showed a progression of glenoid wear. Cases in which glenoid wear progressed after 4 years after surgery were rare. Two patients of Grade 3 underwent total shoulder arthroplasty revision at 16 months and 38 months, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Glenoid wear occurred in 61% of patients at 5 years follow-up. Pain of Grade 3 patients was mild, therefore, if pain is not severe, revision surgery may not be necessary.

Abstract
Two patients (age, 34 and 52 years) underwent an open repair of concealed rotator cuff tear with the aid of color arthrography using gentian violet. Postoperatively, they developed chondrolysis of the shoulder, which was treated with hemiarthroplasty. Twenty-five years after hemiarthroplasty, both patients showed good shoulder function without significant glenoid erosion on radiographs. Satisfactory long-term results are most probably due to maintenance of humeral head centering and glenohumeral conformity. These are the longest follow-up cases of arthroplasty for chondrolysis of the shoulder in the literature. We conclude that hemiarthroplasty can be a reasonable option for patients with this unfortunate disorder.

Abstract
Background Despite the success of reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA), complication rates remain high (13% to 25%), due to instability, infection, and glenoid component loosening, which can lead to revision. The aim of the present study was to report the early clinical outcomes of RSA using a new hybrid baseplate design, in comparison with the literature on other common RSA baseplates. Methods The authors retrospectively analyzed the records of 142 patients (142 shoulders) who underwent primary RSA using a hybrid baseplate design by the senior surgeons between May 2014 and December 2018. Preoperative and postoperative assessments included the Constant score (CS) and range of motion, including active forward elevation, external rotation, and internal rotation. Results Of the initial cohort of 142 patients, 13 were lost to follow-up (8.6%), 2 died (1.3%), and 8 required reoperations with implant removal (5.3%). The remaining 119 patients comprised 71 women (60%) and 48 men (40%), aged 73.6 ± 7.3 years at index surgery, 43 of whom required bony increased offset (36%). At a minimum follow-up of 2 years, the CS improved by 37.3 ± 16.1, active forward elevation increased by 51.2° ± 38.1°, external rotation increased by 16.4° ± 25.0°, and internal rotation increased by 1.5 ± 3.2. Conclusion At a minimum follow-up of 2 years after RSA using a new hybrid baseplate system, the CS and range of motion were satisfactory and comparable to those in recent systematic reviews. The findings of this study suggest that this hybrid baseplate system provides satisfactory outcomes in the short term, although longer follow-up studies are needed to validate its long-term efficacy.

Abstract
» Glenoid component wear and loosening are the principal failure modes of anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty (aTSA). » The ream-and-run (RnR) procedure is an alternative glenohumeral arthroplasty for patients who wish to avoid the risks and limitations of a prosthetic glenoid component. » During the RnR procedure, the arthritic glenoid is conservatively reamed to a single concavity, while the prosthetic humeral component and soft tissues are balanced to provide both mobility and stability of the joint. » The success of the RnR procedure depends on careful patient selection, preoperative education and engagement, optimal surgical technique, targeted rehabilitation, and close postoperative communication between the surgeon and the patient. » While the RnR procedure allows high levels of shoulder function in most patients, the recovery can be longer and more arduous than with aTSA. » Patients who have undergone an RnR procedure occasionally require a second closed or open procedure to address refractory shoulder stiffness, infection, or persistent glenoid-sided pain. These second procedures are more common after the RnR than with aTSA.

Arthroscopic management of glenohumeral arthritis in the young patient does not negatively impact the outcome of subsequent anatomic shoulder arthroplasty. INTERNATIONAL ORTHOPAEDICS 2021; 45:2071-2079.

Abstract
PURPOSE The objective of this study was to determine the impact of prior arthroscopic management of glenohumeral arthritis in the young patient on results of subsequent anatomic shoulder arthroplasty. METHODS Forty-three patients that had a total shoulder or ream-and-run arthroplasty with a history of arthroscopic management were matched to 86 patients without prior surgery. Each case was matched to two cases without prior arthroscopic surgery with similar age, sex, Walch classification, and type of arthroplasty. RESULTS Forty-three patients with a history of arthroscopic management were matched to 86 patients without prior surgery. The mean two year SST scores (10.3 vs. 9.9, p = 0.334), % MPI (75.4 vs. 73.0%, p = 0.687), two year SANE scores (79.6 vs. 79.8, p = 0.953), and % of patients to exceed SST score MCID (89 vs. 91%, p = 0.860) and SANE score MCID (86 vs. 75%, p = 0.180) were statistically similar in patients with prior arthroscopic debridement compared with those without prior arthroscopic debridement. The rate of MUA (9 vs. 6%, p = 0.480) and open revision (9 vs. 8%, p = 1.000) were statistically similar between groups. CONCLUSION Arthroscopic management of glenohumeral arthritis in patients aged 65 years and younger prior to anatomic shoulder arthroplasty was not associated with inferior outcomes for either total shoulder arthroplasty or ream-and-run arthroplasty.

[PMID: 33484829 DOI: 10.1016/j.jse.2020.11.030] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/17/2020] [Revised: 11/20/2020] [Accepted: 11/25/2020] [Indexed: 02/01/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The relative indications of anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) and reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) continue to evolve. Some surgeons favor RSA over TSA for elderly patients with primary glenohumeral osteoarthritis (GHOA) and an intact rotator cuff due to fear of a postoperative (secondary) rotator cuff tear in this age group. However, RSA is associated with unique complications and a worse functional arc of motion compared with TSA. Therefore, it is important to understand the clinical outcomes and rates of revision surgery and secondary rotator cuff tears in elderly patients undergoing TSA. METHODS Between January 1, 2010, and December 31, 2017, 377 consecutive TSAs were performed for primary GHOA in 340 patients 70 years of age or older. The mean age at surgery was 76.2 years (standard deviation [SD], 4.9). Clinical evaluation included pain, motion, and American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons score. Radiographs were reviewed for preoperative morphology and postoperative complications. All complications and reoperations were recorded. The average clinical follow-up time was 3.3 years (SD, 2.0). Statistical analyses were performed, and Kaplan-Meier implant survival estimates were calculated. For all analyses, a P value <.05 was considered statistically significant. RESULTS The mean pain visual analog scale and American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons score at the final follow-up were 1.6 (SD, 2.2) and 78.0 (SD, 17.8), respectively. Forward elevation and external rotation increased from 96° (SD, 30°) and 26° (SD, 20°) preoperatively to 160° (SD, 32°) and 64° (SD, 26°) postoperatively (P < .001 for each). The percentage of patients who had internal rotation to L5 or greater increased from 24.8% preoperatively to 71.8% postoperatively (P < .001). Revision surgery was performed in 3 shoulders (0.8%), and the 5-year implant survival estimate was 98.9% (95% confidence interval: 97.3%-100%). There were 3 medical (0.8%), 10 minor surgical (2.7%), and 5 major surgical (1.3%) complications. No shoulder had radiographic evidence of humeral component loosening, whereas 7 (2%) had evidence of some degree of glenoid component loosening. In total, there were 5 secondary rotator cuff tears (1.3%), of which 2 (0.5%) required revision surgery. CONCLUSION Elderly patients with primary GHOA and an intact rotator cuff have excellent clinical and radiographic outcomes after anatomic TSA, with high implant survival rates and a low incidence of secondary rotator cuff tears in the first 5 postoperative years. Age greater than 70 by itself should not be considered an indication for RSA over TSA.

J Shoulder Elbow Surg 2021; 30:1603-1612. [PMID: 33096272 DOI: 10.1016/j.jse.2020.09.024] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/30/2020] [Revised: 09/18/2020] [Accepted: 09/21/2020] [Indexed: 02/01/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The incidence of nerve injuries in revision total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) is not well defined in the literature and may be higher than that in primary procedures, with 1 study reporting a complication rate of 50% for shoulder revisions. Given that continuous intraoperative nerve monitoring (IONM) can be an effective tool in diagnosing evolving neurologic dysfunction and preventing postoperative injuries, the purpose of this study was to report on IONM data and nerve injury rates in a series of revision TSAs. METHODS A retrospective cohort review of consecutive patients who underwent revision TSA was performed from January 2016 to March 2020. Indications for revision included infection (n = 7); failed total arthroplasty and hemiarthroplasty secondary to pain, dysfunction, and/or loose components (n = 36); and periprosthetic fracture (n = 1). Of the shoulders, 32 underwent revision to a reverse TSA, 6 underwent revision to an anatomic TSA, and 6 underwent spacer placement. IONM data included transcranial electrical motor evoked potentials (MEPs), somatosensory evoked potentials, and free-run electromyography. The motor alert threshold was set at ≥80% signal attenuation in any peripheral nerve. Patients were screened for neurologic deficits immediately following surgery, prior to administration of an interscalene nerve block, and during the first 2 postoperative visits. Additional data collection included surgical indication, sex, laterality, age at surgery, procedure performed, body mass index, history of tobacco use, Charlson Comorbidity Index, medical history, and preoperative range of motion. RESULTS A total of 44 shoulders in 38 patients were included, with a mean age of 63.2 years (standard deviation, 13.0 years). Of the procedures, 22.4% (n = 10) had an MEP alert, with 8 isolated to a single nerve (7 axillary and 1 radial) and 1 isolated to the axillary and musculocutaneous nerves. Only 1 patient experienced a major brachial plexus alert involving axillary, musculocutaneous, radial, ulnar, and median nerve MEP alerts, as well as ulnar and median nerve somatosensory evoked potential alerts. Age, sex, body mass index, Charlson Comorbidity Index, and preoperative range of motion were not found to be significantly different between cases in which an MEP alert occurred and cases with no MEP alerts. In the postoperative period, no minor or major nerve injuries were found whereas distal peripheral neuropathy developed in 4 patients (9.1%). CONCLUSION Among 44 surgical procedures, no patients (0%) had a major or minor nerve injury postoperatively and 4 patients (9.1%) complained of distal peripheral neuropathy postoperatively. In this study, we have shown that through the use of IONM, the rate of minor and major nerve injuries can be minimized in revision shoulder arthroplasty.

Abstract
BACKGROUND When comprehensive arthroscopic management (CAM) for glenohumeral osteoarthritis fails, total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) may be needed, and it remains unknown whether previous CAM adversely affects outcomes after subsequent TSA. PURPOSE To compare the outcomes of patients with glenohumeral osteoarthritis who underwent TSA as a primary procedure with those who underwent TSA after CAM (CAM-TSA). STUDY DESIGN Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS Patients younger than 70 years who underwent primary TSA or CAM-TSA and were at least 2 years postoperative were included. A total of 21 patients who underwent CAM-TSA were matched to 42 patients who underwent primary TSA by age, sex, and grade of osteoarthritis. Intraoperative blood loss and surgical time were assessed. Patient-reported outcome (PRO) scores were collected preoperatively and at final follow-up including the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) score, Single Assessment Numeric Evaluation (SANE), shortened version of Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (QuickDASH), 12-Item Short Form Health Survey Physical Component Summary (SF-12 PCS), visual analog scale, and patient satisfaction. Revision arthroplasty was defined as failure. RESULTS Of 63 patients, 56 of them (19 CAM-TSA and 37 primary TSA; 88.9%) were available for follow-up. There were 16 female (28.6%) and 40 male (71.4%) patients with a mean age of 57.8 years (range, 38.8-66.7 years). There were no significant differences in intraoperative blood loss (P > .999) or surgical time (P = .127) between the groups. There were 4 patients (7.1%) who had failure, and failure rates did not differ significantly between the CAM-TSA (5.3%; n = 1) and primary TSA (8.1%; n = 3) groups (P > .999). Additionally, 2 patients underwent revision arthroplasty because of trauma. A total of 50 patients who did not experience failure (17 CAM-TSA and 33 primary TSA) completed PRO measures at a mean follow-up of 4.8 years (range, 2.0-11.5 years), with no significant difference between the CAM-TSA (4.4 years [range, 2.1-10.5 years]) and primary TSA (5.0 years [range, 2.0-11.5 years]) groups (P = .164). Both groups improved significantly from preoperatively to postoperatively in all PRO scores (P < .05). No significant differences in any median PRO scores between the CAM-TSA and primary TSA groups, respectively, were seen at final follow-up: ASES: 89.9 (interquartile range [IQR], 74.9-96.6) versus 94.1 (IQR, 74.9-98.3) (P = .545); SANE: 84.0 (IQR, 74.0-94.0) versus 91.5 (IQR, 75.3-99.0) (P = .246); QuickDASH: 9.0 (IQR, 3.4-27.3) versus 9.0 (IQR, 5.1-18.1) (P = .921); SF-12 PCS: 53.8 (IQR, 50.1-57.1) versus 49.3 (IQR, 41.2-56.5) (P = .065); and patient satisfaction: 9.5 (IQR, 7.3-10.0) versus 9.0 (IQR, 5.3-10.0) (P = .308). CONCLUSION Patients with severe glenohumeral osteoarthritis who failed previous CAM benefited similarly from TSA compared with patients who opted directly for TSA.

Does commercially available shoulder arthroplasty preoperative planning software agree with surgeon measurements of version, inclination, and subluxation? J Shoulder Elbow Surg 2021; 30:413-420. [PMID: 32544424 DOI: 10.1016/j.jse.2020.05.027] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/12/2020] [Revised: 05/14/2020] [Accepted: 05/18/2020] [Indexed: 02/01/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Preoperative planning with commercially available imaging software in shoulder arthroplasty may allow for improved decision-making and more accurate placement of the glenoid component. METHODS A total of 81 consecutive shoulder computed tomography scans obtained for preoperative planning purposes for shoulder arthroplasty were analyzed by commercially available software from 4 companies (Blueprint: Wright Medical, Memphis, TN, USA; GPS: Exactech, Gainesville, FL, USA; Materialise: DJO, Vista, CA, USA; and VIP: Arthrex, Naples, FL, USA) and by 5 fellowship-trained sports medicine/shoulder surgeons. Inclination, version, and subluxation of the humerus were measured in a blinded fashion on axial and coronal sequences at the mid-glenoid. Surgeon measurements were analyzed for agreement and were compared with the 4 commercial programs. RESULTS Surgeon reliability was acceptable for version (intraclass correlation coefficient [ICC]: 0.876), inclination (ICC: 0.84), and subluxation (ICC: 0.523). Significant differences were found between surgeon and commercial software measurements in version (P = .03), inclination (P = .023), and subluxation (P < .001). Software measurements tended to be more superiorly inclined (average -2° to 2° greater), more retroverted (average 2°-5° greater), and more posteriorly subluxed (average 7°-10° greater) than surgeon measurements. In comparing imaging software measurements, only Blueprint was found to produce significantly different version measurements than surgeon measurements (P = .02). CONCLUSION Preoperative planning software for shoulder arthroplasty has limited agreement in measures of version, inclination, and subluxation measurements, whereas surgeons have high inter-reliability. Surgeons should be cautious when using commercial software planning systems and when comparing publications that use different planning systems to determine preoperative glenoid deformity measurements.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Osteoarthritis (OA) of the shoulder in under-50 year-olds is rare, and treatment is delicate. Shoulder replacement incurs frequent long-term risk of progression and a high revision rate, making it unsuited to young active patients. The aim of the present study was to determine the epidemiology of shoulder OA in under-50 year-olds and to assess the clinical results of the various treatment options. HYPOTHESIS The main study hypothesis was that well-conducted non-operative treatment can allow shoulder replacement to be postponed. The secondary hypothesis was that anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) is the treatment of choice when other options fail. MATERIALS AND METHODS A multicenter retrospective study included primary (POA) and post-instability osteoarthritis (PIOA) in patients aged≤50years at symptom onset. Exclusion criteria comprised post-traumatic OA, rheumatoid arthritis and necrosis. Two hundred and sixty-six patients for 273 shoulders were included from 13 shoulder surgery centers: 2 types of non-operative treatment (28 by platelet-rich plasma [PRP] and 88 by viscosupplementation), 73 arthroscopies, and 150 implantations (62 humeral hemiarthroplasties [HA], comprising 10 hemi-metal, 24 hemi-pyrocarbon and 28 hemi-resurfacing; 77 anatomic total prostheses, and 11 reverse prostheses). Minimum follow-up was 12 months for non-operative treatment and 24 months for arthroplasty (some patients having both). Endpoints comprised Constant score, Subjective Shoulder Value (SSV) and number of complications/revision procedures. RESULTS Mean age at treatment was 43 years (range, 23-65 years), with 75% male predominance. Symptom onset was earlier in PIOA than in POA: 36 vs. 39 years (range, 20-50 years). PRP and viscosupplementation postponed implantation by a mean 3.5 years in 86% of cases, as did arthroscopy in 56%. ER1 restriction was the most negative factor. At 74 months' follow-up for HA and 95 months for TSA, mean Constant score was significantly lower for HA (56 vs. 67; p=0.004), with higher rates of complications (31% vs. 11%) and implant exchange (13% vs. 9%). DISCUSSION/CONCLUSION PRP, viscosupplementation and arthroscopy allow implantation to be postponed until the shoulder becomes stiff and painful. In case of failure, TSA is the most effective solution in the medium-term. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE IV a; therapeutic study - investigating the results of treatment.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Stemless anatomic implants are the growing standard for solving osteoarthritis of the shoulder. If there are secondary rotator cuff insufficiency and the need to revise the implant into a reverse total shoulder, there is usually the option to revise it into a stemmed implant with losing the benefits of stemless implants. There are only a few stemless reverse implants available on the market. Usually, they are recommended as primary implants, but not for revision surgery. Case Report. A 61-year-old male with an indwelling anatomic stemless TESS (Total Evolutive Shoulder System, Zimmer Biomet, Warsaw, USA) implant presented in our clinic with growing pain and loss of range of motion. The TESS was implanted in 2007 as a hemishoulder arthroplasty. The X-ray was showing a stable implanted corolla with clearly growing protrusion of the glenoid. Because of the clinical presentation and the ultrasound investigation that showed only remnants of the supraspinatus and infraspinatus left, we decided that it is necessary to revise the stable implant in a reverse total shoulder arthroplasty. As the TESS was not designed to be convertible, it was clear that it has to be explanted. Due to the young age of the patient, we proposed an "off-label" change to a stemless reverse implant, e.g., the LIMA SMR stemless reverse prosthesis. A revision was possible without much bone loss, so the stemless reverse implant could be used. The clinical and radiological 2-year follow-up showed a good result. CONCLUSION Stemless implants are well known for anatomic implants, rarely for reverse implants, and seldom used for revision into reverse stemless. This case report shows that it is possible to revise a stemless anatomic implant with a stemless reverse, as long as the rules for implantation are applicable.

Assessment of surgeon variability in preoperative planning of reverse total shoulder arthroplasty: a quantitative comparison of 49 cases planned by 9 surgeons. J Shoulder Elbow Surg 2020; 29:2080-2088.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Preoperative planning software is gaining utility in reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (RTSA), particularly when addressing pathologic glenoid wear. The purpose of this study was to quantify inter- and intrasurgeon variability in preoperative planning a series of RTSA cases to identify differences in how surgeons consider optimal implant placement. This may help identify opportunities to establish consensus when correlating plan differences with clinical data. METHODS A total of 49 computed tomography scans from actual RTSA cases were planned for RTSA by 9 fellowship-trained shoulder surgeons using the same platform (Exactech GPS, Exactech Inc., Gainesville, FL, USA). Each case was planned a second time 6-12 weeks later. Variability within and between surgeons was measured for implant selection, version correction, inclination correction, and implant face position. Interclass correlation coefficients, and Pearson and Light's kappa coefficient were used for statistical analysis. RESULTS There was considerable variation in the frequency of augmented baseplate selection between surgeons and between rounds for the same surgeon. Thresholds for augment use also varied between surgeons. Interclass correlation coefficients for intersurgeon variability ranged from 0.43 for version, 0.42 for inclination, and 0.25 for baseplate type. Pearson coefficients for intrasurgeon variability were 0.34 for version and 0.30 for inclination. Light's kappa coefficient for baseplate type was 0.61. CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrates substantial variability both between surgeons and between rounds for individual surgeons when planning RTSA. Although average differences between plans were relatively small, there were large differences in specific cases suggesting little consensus on optimal planning parameters and opportunities to establish guidelines based on glenoid pathoanatomy. The correlation of preoperative planning with clinical outcomes will help to establish such guidelines.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The ability to predict successful outcomes is important for patient satisfaction and optimal results after shoulder arthroplasty. We hypothesize that a medical-social scoring tool will predict resource requirements in doing total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA). METHODS A retrospective analysis of 453 patients undergoing TSA was undertaken. Preoperatively, medical and social surveys were completed by each patient. Demographics, comorbidity scores, hospital course, postdischarge disposition, and readmissions were collected. RESULTS The average length of stay was 1.6 days (0 to 7). There was an association with utilization of home care or inpatient rehabilitation and both the medical (7.3 versus 3.9; P = 0.0002) and social (7.1 versus 3.4; P < 0.0001) components of the survey. There was a weak correlation between hospital length of stay and the social component of the survey (R = 0.29; P < 0.001), but not the medical component (R = 0.04; P = 0.38). No variable was predictive of readmission. Social score of eight was found to be predictive of postoperative requirement of home care or rehabilitation. CONCLUSION This study found that Medical and Social Survey Scores can stratify patients who are at risk of requiring more advanced postdischarge care and/or a longer hospital stay. With this, we can match patients to the most appropriate level of postoperative care.

Abstract
Background Though total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) has been an acknowledged treatment option for glenohumeral osteoarthritis, resurfacing hemiarthroplasty (RHA) and stemmed hemiarthroplasty (SHA) may be preferred in some circumstances by surgeons, especially for treating young or active patients. However, decision-making between the RHA and SHA is controversial. Therefore, we conducted a meta-analysis to systematically compare two surgical procedures in terms of postoperative functional outcomes, range of motion (ROM), pain relief, complication rates, risk of revision. Methods The PubMed, Embase, Web of Science and Cochrane Library were searched from inception to January 1, 2020, for all articles that compared the clinical effectiveness and safety of RHA with SHA. All eligible studies were selected based on certain screening criteria. Two investigators independently conducted the quality assessment and extracted the data. Fixed-effect and random-effect models were used for pooled results according to the degree of heterogeneity. All statistical analyses were performed by employing Stata software 14.0. Results A total of six comparative studies involving 2568 shoulders (1356 RHA and 1212 SHA) were included in the final analysis. Patients were followed up for at least 1 year in each study. Pooled results showed that RHA was associated with a better visual analog scale (SMD 0.61, p = 0.001) but higher revision rates (OR 1.50, p = 0.016) when compared to SHA. There were no significant differences in functional outcomes, such as Constant-Murley score (SMD 0.06, P = 0.878), American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons score (SMD 0.05, P = 0.880), Western Ontario Osteoarthritis of the Shoulder index (SMD 0.43, p = 0.258) and quick-Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand score (SMD 0.06, p = 0.669). In addition, no differences were observed in forward flexion (SMD 0.16, p = 0.622), external rotation (SMD -0.17, P = 0.741) and overall complication rates (OR 1.42, p = 0.198). Conclusion This is the first meta-analysis to investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of RHA in comparison with SHA for the treatment of glenohumeral osteoarthritis. The results demonstrated that the two surgical techniques were equivalent in terms of postoperative functional outcomes and complication rate. However, RHA provided greater pain relief but posed a higher risk for revision than SHA. More high-quality studies with long-term follow up are warranted to give more convincing evidence.

Abstract
Traditionally, total shoulder arthroplasty is performed through the deltopectoral approach with violation of the subscapularis tendon. In order to reduce the incidence of postoperative subscapularis dysfunction, the subscapularis-sparing approach, performed entirely through the rotator interval, was developed. This technique allows earlier rehabilitation and may potentially prevent subsequent subscapularis insufficiency and clinical failures.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (RTSA) as a revision procedure for failed anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) is increasing in incidence. The purpose of this study was to analyze the results of RTSA as a revision salvage procedure for failed TSA and identify factors that influenced those outcomes. METHODS All anatomic TSAs that were revised to RTSAs in adult patients, under the care of 2 senior surgeons at a single academic center from 2006 to 2018, were queried and reviewed. Cases in which hemiarthroplasty or RTSA was revised to RTSA were excluded. Electronic medical records and survey databases were reviewed for each subject. Demographic and surgical details were reviewed and analyzed with descriptive statistics. Preoperative and postoperative range of motion (ROM) including active forward elevation and active external rotation were evaluated. Patient-reported outcome surveys including the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons survey, Single Assessment Numeric Evaluation, and visual analog scale for pain were collected and analyzed. Improvement in ROM and outcome survey measures was assessed with 2-sample t tests. Complication and reoperation rates were analyzed with descriptive statistics. RESULTS A total of 75 patients (32 men and 43 women) were available for analysis at a mean of 22.3 months. The subjects were aged 60.3 ± 11.3 years at the time of TSA and 64.6 ± 9.7 years at the time of RTSA. The average period between TSA and RTSA was 4.3 years. The 3 most common indications for revision RTSA were painful arthroplasty (n = 62, 82.7%), rotator cuff failure (n = 56, 74.7%), and unstable arthroplasty (n = 25, 33.3%), but the majority of patients had multiple indications for surgery (n = 69, 92%). Significant improvements were found in all outcome measures from the time of failed TSA diagnosis to most recent follow-up after salvage RTSA with the exception of active external rotation: American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons score, 39 ± 15 preoperatively vs. 62 ± 25 postoperatively; Single Assessment Numeric Evaluation, 27 ± 23 vs. 60 ± 30; visual analog scale pain score, 5 ± 2 vs. 3 ± 3; and active forward elevation, 79° ± 41° vs. 128° ± 33°. Major complications occurred in 21 patients (28.4%) after salvage RTSA, and 9 (12%) underwent reoperation. CONCLUSIONS RTSA for failed TSA can improve pain, function, and quality-of-life measures in patients with various TSA failure etiologies. However, postoperative ROM and patient-reported outcomes do not reach the values seen in the primary RTSA population.
