Predictors of poor and excellent outcomes following reverse shoulder arthroplasty for glenohumeral osteoarthritis with an intact rotator cuff. J Shoulder Elbow Surg 2024; 33:S55-S63. [PMID: 38428477 DOI: 10.1016/j.jse.2024.01.027] [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: 08/14/2023] [Revised: 01/04/2024] [Accepted: 01/08/2024] [Indexed: 03/03/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND As the indications for reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) continue to evolve, it has been more commonly utilized for the treatment of glenohumeral osteoarthritis with an intact rotator cuff (GHOA). Given the increased use of RSA for GHOA, it is important to identify factors influential of clinical outcomes. In this study, we sought to identify variables predictive of clinical outcomes following RSA for GHOA. METHODS Patients undergoing primary RSA for GHOA between 2015 and 2020 were retrospectively identified through a prospectively maintained, single surgeon registry. Eligible patients had complete patient-reported outcome measures and range of motion measurements with a minimum 2-year follow-up. Univariate analysis was utilized to compare characteristics and outcome measures of patients with poor and excellent outcomes, which was defined as postoperative American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) scores in the bottom and top quartiles, respectively. Multivariate linear regression was performed to determine factors independently predictive of postoperative ASES score. RESULTS A total of 230 patients were included with a mean follow-up of 33.4 months (SD 13.2). The mean age of the study population was 71.9 (SD 6.1). Two hundred twenty-four patients (97.4%) surpassed the minimal clinically important difference and 209 patients (90.1%) achieved substantial clinical benefit for ASES score. Preoperative factors differing between the poor and excellent outcome groups were sex (male: poor 37.9%, excellent 58.6%; P = .041), opioid use (poor 24.1%, excellent 5.2%; P = .009), ASES score (poor 32.9, excellent 41.0; P = .011), and forward elevation (poor 92°, excellent 101°; P = .030). Linear regression demonstrated that Walch B3 glenoids (β 7.08; P = .010) and higher preoperative ASES scores (β 0.14; P = .025) were predictors of higher postoperative ASES score, while postoperative complications (β -18.66; P < .001) and preoperative opioid use (β -11.88; P < .001) were predictive of lower postoperative ASES scores. CONCLUSION Over 90% of patients who underwent RSA for GHOA with an intact rotator cuff experienced substantial clinical benefit. An unsurprising handful of factors were associated with postoperative clinical outcomes; higher preoperative ASES scores were slightly associated with higher postoperative ASES, whereas preoperative opioid use and postoperative complications were associated with lower postoperative ASES. Additionally, Walch glenoid type B3 was associated with higher postoperative ASES, indicating that patients with posterior glenoid defects are not predisposed to poor clinical outcomes following RSA. These results serve as a resource to improve preoperative patient counseling and manage postoperative expectations.

Outcomes of arthroscopic single-row repair alone vs. repair with human dermal allograft patch augmentation in patients with large to massive, posterosuperior rotator cuff tears: a retrospective comparative study. J Shoulder Elbow Surg 2024; 33:823-831. [PMID: 37689106 DOI: 10.1016/j.jse.2023.08.002] [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: 03/14/2023] [Revised: 08/03/2023] [Accepted: 08/06/2023] [Indexed: 09/11/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Large to massive rotator cuff tears (RCTs) affect shoulder functions profoundly with unmanageable disability without intervention. The retear rates with arthroscopic rotator cuff repair (ARCR) in these patients are abysmal. Patch augmentation has been credited for preventing retears, improving functions by increasing the strength, and acting as a bioconductive scaffold. This study aimed to assess the retear rates and compare the clinical and radiological outcomes between the ARCR with and without acellular human dermal allograft (HDA) augmentation. METHODS This is a retrospective comparative study among patients diagnosed with large to massive, posterosuperior RCTs, operated between January 2020 and December 2021, including 36 patients (group I) with and 131 patients (group II) without HDA augmentation, with a mean follow-up of 20 (range, 12-35) months. The average age was 64 (range, 49-80) and 66 (range, 41-81) years in groups I and II, respectively. In group I, there were 16 male and 20 female patients, whereas in group II, there were 58 male and 73 female patients. RESULTS The visual analog scale score improved to 1.1 ± 1.7 in group I and 2.1 ± 1.7 in group II (P = .005). There was a greater improvement in the University of California, Los Angeles shoulder score to 30.1 ± 4.2 in group I compared with 23.2 ± 3.9 in group II (P = .046). Forward flexion (degrees) improved from a mean of 103.2 ± 18.6 to 138.9 ± 23.5 in group I and from 106.4 ± 21.3 to 127.0 ± 19.5 in group II (P = .004). The acromiohumeral interval (mm) measured in anteroposterior radiographs increased to 8.4 ± 1.8 in group I and 8.2 ± 2.0 in group II (P = .006). The satisfaction after the procedure was 4.4 ± 0.6 in group I and 3.1 ± 1.1 in group II (P = .044). The retear rate in the HDA-augmented group was 5.6% as compared with 29.1% in the nonaugmented group, which was statistically significant (P = .007). There were no complications or adverse tissue reactions against HDA seen in any patients. CONCLUSION In patients with large to massive, posterosuperior RCTs, patch augmentation with acellular HDA significantly averted the retears after ARCR without any graft-related complications. The augmentation also resulted in improved shoulder function and greater range of motion compared with the nonaugmented group.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Many patients who undergo shoulder arthroplasty (SA) have had at least 1 nonarthroplasty shoulder surgery before the surgery. There is conflicting evidence regarding the effects of previous shoulder surgery on the outcome of SA. A systematic review was conducted to compare functional outcomes and complications between SA patients with and without prior non-SA surgery on the ipsilateral shoulder. METHODS We followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines and searched MEDLINE/PubMed, Embase, Scopus, and Web of Science comprehensively from inception to January 2023. Based on 9,279 records reviewed, 26 comparative studies were included in the meta-analysis consisting of 5,431 shoulders with prior nonarthroplasty procedures (cases) and 55,144 shoulders without previous surgery (controls). Variables such as functional scores, complications, and range of motion were compared between cases and controls using Review Manager Software. In addition, subgroup analysis was conducted based on prior surgery type (rotator cuff repair [RCR], open reduction and internal fixation [ORIF], soft tissue repairs, and not specified) and type of SA (hemiarthroplasty, anatomical total shoulder arthroplasty, and reverse total shoulder arthroplasty [RTSA]). The results were presented as odds ratios (ORs) or standardized mean differences (SMDs). RESULTS Except for a higher rate of periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) in patients who had undergone previous arthroscopic surgery (OR, 2.58; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.66-4.01; p < 0.01), a higher rate of complications was only observed in patients with previous ORIF. These complications included aseptic loosening (OR, 3.43; 95% CI, 2.14-5.50; p < 0.01), shoulder dislocation (OR, 2.25; 95% CI, 1.05-4.84; p = 0.04), overall complication (OR, 3.95; 95% CI, 2.38-6.55; p < 0.01), and revision (OR, 2.52; 95% CI, 1.28-4.97; p = 0.01). Patients with a history of previous surgery demonstrated inferior functional outcomes in comparison with the control group, including American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (SMD, -0.39; 95% CI, -0.51 to -0.27; p < 0.01; I2 = 36%), Constant-Murley score (SMD, -0.34; 95% CI, -0.44 to -0.24; p < 0.01; I2 = 0%), abduction (SMD, -0.26; 95% CI, -0.45 to -0.08; p = 0.01; I2 = 54%), and flexion (SMD, -0.33; 95% CI, -0.46 to -0.21; p < 0.01; I2 = 40%). Subgroup analysis by previous type of surgery was not possible regarding functional outcomes. CONCLUSION Patients who have had prior fracture surgery are at a higher risk of complications, reoperations, and revisions after SA than controls. The normal shoulder anatomy may be disrupted by prior surgery, which makes arthroplasty technically challenging, particularly when it comes to soft tissue balance. On the other hand, RCR before SA did not negatively affect clinical outcomes after RTSA and did not have a higher rate of overall complications (except PJI).

Abstract
Background Excellent short-term outcomes after reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) have been reported, but longer term outcomes in the existing literature are sparse and vary widely. The purpose of this study is to systematically assess the existing literature to quantify functional outcomes and complication rates after RSA at a minimum of five years of follow-up. Methods A Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses-compliant systematic literature search of the PubMed and Embase databases was undertaken. Studies reporting outcomes after primary RSA for nontrauma-related indications with a minimum of 5-year follow-up were included. Results Overall, 20 studies satisfied all inclusion criteria. This represented 1591 shoulders in 1556 patients (32.1% males), with a mean age of 70.2 ± 5.0 years and mean follow-up of 8.8 years, or 106.2 ± 30.1 months (60-243). At final follow-up, the mean reported Constant Murley score was 62.1 ± 5.0 (49.0-83.0). The mean adjusted Constant Murley score was 83.5 ± 12.5 (58-111.9). The mean American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons score was 81.8 ± 4.6, while the mean subjective shoulder value was 74.6 ± 6.4. Overall, 88% of patients rated their satisfaction as either good or very good. The range of active forward flexion, abduction, external, and internal rotation were respectively, 126° ± 13°, 106° ± 11°, 22° ± 11°, and 6° ± 2°. The overall rate of revision surgery was 4.9% (0%-45.5%). Regarding complications, the rate of prosthetic joint infection was 4.3% (0%-26.7%), shoulder dislocation was 3.7% (0%-20.4%), and acromial fracture was 2.0% (0%-8.8%). At final follow-up, 30.9% of shoulders had some degree of scapular notching. Conclusion This systematic review shows that RSA results in high satisfaction rates, good clinical outcomes, as well as modest complication and revision rates at minimum 5-year follow-up.

Abstract
Purpose To assess functional outcomes and healing 4 years after arthroscopic repair of massive rotator cuff tears (MRCTs). Methods We conducted a retrospective study of patients who underwent arthroscopic rotator cuff repair of an MRCT-defined as a complete 2-tendon tear or a tear greater than 5 cm in any dimension-performed by 2 surgeons at different institutions between January 2015 and December 2018. At a minimum of 4 years postoperatively, patient-reported outcomes collected included the visual analog scale pain score, American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) score, Veterans RAND 12 (VR-12) score, and Subjective Shoulder Value (SSV) score. Repair technique and concomitant procedures were also gathered. Tendon healing was evaluated via ultrasound at final follow-up. Results Functional outcomes were available for 101 patients at a mean of 63.6 ± 8.8 months (range, 48-82 months) postoperatively. Mean ASES scores improved from 40.1 to 78 (P < .001); VR-12 scores, from 37.1 to 47.7 (P < .001); and SSV scores, from 36.7 to 84.6 (P < .001). Forward flexion improved from 126° to 144° (P = .001), external rotation remained unchanged (from 47° to 44°, P = .268), and internal rotation improved by 2 spinal levels (from L4 to L2, P = .0001). Eighty-eight percent of patients (89 of 101) were satisfied with the procedure, and only 5% underwent reverse shoulder arthroplasty within the study period. Among the 39 patients who underwent postoperative ultrasound to assess healing, 56% showed complete tendon healing. There was no difference in healing or outcomes according to tear pattern. Additionally, tendon healing did not affect outcomes. Conclusions Arthroscopic repair of MRCTs leads to functional improvements and patient satisfaction in most cases at 4-year follow-up. The rates of patients achieving the minimal clinically important difference were 77.5%, 87.6%, 59.7%, and 80.6% for the ASES score, SSV score, VR-12 score, and visual analog scale pain score, respectively. Complete tendon healing is difficult to achieve but does not appear to limit functional improvements. Level of Evidence Level IV, therapeutic case series.

Abstract
BackgroundCutibacterium acnes (C. acnes), a common pathogen, contributes significantly to infections in shoulder surgery. Prevention of shoulder infection is crucial to improve postoperative functional recovery and reduce costs. This study aimed to perform a systematic review and meta-analysis to assess the safety and efficacy of 5% benzoyl peroxide (BPO) application in the shoulder to decrease C. acnes.MethodsThree electronic databases were searched as follows: PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Library databases. Data extraction for this study was performed by two independent reviewers, and only level I and level II studies were included. The outcome data sources of individual studies were pooled. The fixed-effect model was used to determine the meta-analysis.ResultsThere were five level I studies and five level II studies. The results showed that the 5% BPO group had a lower risk of C. acnes positivity [OR, 0.21 (0.15, 0.30), I2 = 24, p < 0.00001]. The pooled analysis results showed that there was no significant difference in the ability of 5% BPO and 5% BPO + clindamycin to reduce C. acnes. However, the lower rate of adverse events was significantly in favour of the non-BPO group compared with the 5% BPO group.ConclusionBPO can decrease C. acnes in the shoulder to prevent infection. However, the combination of BPO and clindamycin does not enhance this effect further.Level of evidenceII, Systematic review and meta-analysis.
