Abstract
Background Lateralization in reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) decreases bony impingement and improves rotational range of motion, but has been theorized to increase the risk of subacromial notching (SaN). The purpose of this study was to evaluate the presence of SaN following RSA and its relationship with lateralization with a 135° inlay humeral component. The secondary purpose was to assess the association of SaN with functional outcomes. Methods A retrospective review was performed from a multicenter prospectively collected database on patients who underwent primary RSA from 2015 to 2021. All RSAs were performed with a 135° inlay humeral component. SaN was defined as bony erosion with sclerotic margins on the undersurface of the acromion on final follow-up radiographs not present preoperatively. Postoperative implant positioning (inclination, distalization, and lateralization) were evaluated on minimum 1-year postoperative radiographs. Regression analyses were performed on implant and clinical variables to assess for risk factors. A separate analysis was performed to determine the association of SaN with clinical outcomes. Results SaN was identified in 13 out of 442 shoulders (2.9%). Age, sex, body mass index, smoking status, diabetes mellitus, arm dominance had no relationship with SaN. Neither glenoid sided lateralization nor humeral offset were associated with SaN risk. Other implant characteristics such as distalization, glenosphere size, and postoperative inclination did not influence SaN risk. The presence of SaN did not affect patient-reported outcomes (American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons: P = .357, Visual Analog Scale: P = .210) or range of motion. Conclusion The rate of SaN is low and not associated with glenoid or humeral prosthetic lateralization when using a 135° inlay humeral component. When SaN occurs, it is not associated with functional outcomes or range of motion at short-term follow-up.

Abstract
Rotator cuff tears are the most common upper extremity condition seen by primary care and orthopaedic surgeons, with a spectrum ranging from tendinopathy to full-thickness tears with arthritic change. Some tears are traumatic, but most rotator cuff problems are degenerative. Not all tears are symptomatic and not all progress, and many patients in whom tears become more extensive do not experience symptom worsening. Hence, a standard algorithm for managing patients is challenging. The pathophysiology of rotator cuff tears is complex and encompasses an interplay between the tendon, bone and muscle. Rotator cuff tears begin as degenerative changes within the tendon, with matrix disorganization and inflammatory changes. Subsequently, tears progress to partial-thickness and then full-thickness tears. Muscle quality, as evidenced by the overall size of the muscle and intramuscular fatty infiltration, also influences symptoms, tear progression and the outcomes of surgery. Treatment depends primarily on symptoms, with non-operative management sufficient for most patients with rotator cuff problems. Modern arthroscopic repair techniques have improved recovery, but outcomes are still limited by a lack of understanding of how to improve tendon to bone healing in many patients.

Yamada E, Kozono N, Nabeshima A, Tashiro E, Nakashima Y. Baseplate inferior offset affects shoulder range of motion in reverse shoulder arthroplasty in Asian population. J Orthop Surg Res 2024; 19:25. [PMID: 38167444 PMCID: PMC10762829 DOI: 10.1186/s13018-023-04506-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/08/2023] [Accepted: 12/22/2023] [Indexed: 01/05/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Impingement is a common complication of reverse shoulder arthroplasty. Placement of the baseplate with a wide impingement-free angle is ideal; however, there are few studies on Asian populations, which have smaller height and physique, and there is a lack of guidance on achieving optimal outcomes. The purpose of the present study was to explore the impingement-free range of motion reverse shoulder arthroplasty and analyze the suitable baseplate position or tilt for the Asian population using simulation software. METHODS We uploaded computed tomography scan data from 20 Asian patients to three-dimensional (3D) simulation software. The implantation of the reverse shoulder arthroplasty component was performed on the 3D humerus and scapula using software, and range of motion was assessed until impingement occurred. RESULTS The range of motion in flexion significantly improved when the baseplate was lowered up to 3 mm inferiorly. Range of motion in abduction and internal and external rotation significantly improved as the baseplate was lowered up to 4 mm. There was no significant difference in range of motion in any motion after changing the inferior tilt, except in internal and external rotation. CONCLUSIONS The range of motion in abduction, flexion, and internal and external rotations significantly improved with increased inferior offset. These results may prove valuable in determining the optimal baseplate position for RSA, particularly in Asian populations.
