Surgical management of multiple superior shoulder suspensory complex disruptions involving at least a coracoid fracture and an acromioclavicular dislocation: A report of five cases. SAGE Open Med Case Rep 2023; 11:2050313X231166776. [PMID: 37122423 PMCID: PMC10134166 DOI: 10.1177/2050313x231166776] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/21/2022] [Accepted: 03/14/2023] [Indexed: 05/02/2023] Open
Abstract
A combination of coracoid fracture and acromioclavicular dislocation is rare. Detecting further pathologies that could cause multiple superior shoulder suspensory complex disruptions is mandatory. Literature regarding these injuries and their management is lacking. We report our diagnostic and surgical strategies, and the postoperative outcomes of superior shoulder suspensory complex disruptions. We present five cases, treated from 2011 to 2016, who had >2 disruptions of the superior shoulder suspensory complex, involving at least a coracoid fracture and an acromioclavicular joint dislocation. Surgical reconstruction was performed in all cases. The patients were postoperatively followed up for a year. There were no intraoperative or postoperative complications, and bone union was achieved in all fractures. Furthermore, all patients returned to their pre-surgery activity level and jobs. Thus, we could demonstrate that in multiple superior shoulder suspensory complex disruptions involving a coracoid fracture and an acromioclavicular joint dislocation, surgical treatment leads to a good functional outcome.

Low grade of osteoarthritis development after Latarjet procedure with a minimum 5 years of follow-up: a systematic review and pooled analysis. Knee Surg Sports Traumatol Arthrosc 2022; 30:2074-2083. [PMID: 34677621 PMCID: PMC9165270 DOI: 10.1007/s00167-021-06771-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/26/2021] [Accepted: 10/07/2021] [Indexed: 12/29/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this systematic review and pooled analysis was to evaluate incidence and risk factors for glenohumeral osteoarthritis (OA) in patients who underwent Latarjet procedure with a minimum of 5-year follow-up. METHODS The PRISMA guidelines were followed to perform this systematic review. PubMed and EMBASE were searched up to February 29, 2020 for English, human in vivo studies that evaluated glenohumeral OA in patients undergoing Latarjet procedure at least 5 years after surgery. A pooled analysis on the included databases sent by authors was performed to evaluate the risk factors influencing the development or progression of dislocation arthropathy after the Latarjet procedure. RESULTS Four studies, including a total of 280 patients (213 males and 67 females), were analysed. In our study population, the median age at surgery was 25.0 years (range 20.8-32.6 years). and 92.1% were athletes. In 90% of the cases, the number of dislocations before surgery were fewer than 5. The recurrence of instability after Latarjet procedure was observed only in seven patients (2.5%). The position of the bone graft resulted flush to the anterior glenoid rim in 238 cases (85.3%), medial in 8 (2.9%) and overhanging in 33 (11.8%). Radiological signs of development or progression of shoulder OA were observed in 25.8% of the patients, of which 88.6% presented a grade 1 of OA according to Samilson and Prieto classification. The overhanging position of the bone graft resulted statistically significant for onset or worsening of OA. The age at surgery, the number of dislocations before surgery and the Hill-Sachs lesion were not significantly associated with joint degeneration. Instead, hyperlaxity showed a prevention role in the development of OA after open Latarjet procedure. CONCLUSION The Latarjet procedure is a valid and safe surgical treatment in recurrent anterior shoulder instability with a low risk of developing moderate or severe OA also at long-term follow-up. The overhanging position of the bone graft represents the principal risk factor of joint degeneration, whereas the hyperlaxity seems to be protective. Finally, age, gender, time between first dislocation and surgery, and number of dislocations do not seem to affect the onset of OA after Latarjet procedure. Therefore, an accurate execution of the Latarjet procedure can be considered a valid treatment even in young and athletes thanks to the low recurrence rates and the low development of major long-term complications. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE IV.

Orthop J Sports Med 2020; 8:2325967120950040. [PMID: 32984424 PMCID: PMC7498977 DOI: 10.1177/2325967120950040] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/21/2020] [Accepted: 04/07/2020] [Indexed: 01/02/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: Athletic endeavor can require the “athletic shoulder” to tolerate significant
load through supraphysiological range and often under considerable
repetition. Outcome measures are valuable when determining an athlete’s safe
return to sport. Few data are available to guide a clinician’s choice from
the variety of measures available. Purpose: To describe the use of quantifiable objective outcome measures and
patient-reported outcome tools after glenohumeral joint stabilization,
specifically in an athletic population. The secondary aim of our study was
to assess whether the method of measurement used was clearly described and
standardized to aid clinical interpretation. Study Design: Systematic review; Level of evidence, 4. Methods: A systematic search of MEDLINE, Scopus, SPORTDiscus, and Web of Science
databases was performed in December 2018 based on the PRISMA (Preferred
Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) guidelines. After
the application of selection criteria, a full review of identified papers,
and screening of reference lists, a total of 62 studies were included in the
review. All studies were independently appraised for quality, predefined
data fields were populated and cross-checked for accuracy, and results were
then summarized from these data fields. Results: Of the 62 included studies, 94% used a quantifiable objective clinical
outcome. A majority (85%) of the studies measured range of motion, 21%
recorded muscle strength, 5% measured electromyographic activity, 5%
examined shoulder kinematics, and 3% assessed joint proprioception after
surgery. However, only 18% of the studies clearly described a standardized
method of measuring the outcome. Nearly all (95%) of the studies used at
least 1 patient-reported outcome measure. The Rowe score was most commonly
used (35%). Conclusion: We must standardize and clearly describe the use of quantifiable objective
outcome measures to aid clinical interpretation. A concerted effort should
also be made to standardize the use of patient-reported outcome tools after
shoulder stabilization in the athletic population.

Abstract
Background Orthopaedic injuries of National Football League (NFL) players can have a deleterious effect on their health, with minimal to no high-level evidence on the management of these injuries. Purpose To summarize all data published between January 1980 and March 2018 on orthopaedic injuries experienced by NFL candidates and professional players in the NFL. Study Design Systematic review; Level of evidence, 4. Methods A literature search of studies examining orthopaedic injuries in the NFL was performed through the PubMed, Embase, and CINAHL databases. The review included studies of orthopaedic injuries in college football recruits attending the NFL Combine as well as professional NFL players. Excluded were studies of nonorthopaedic injuries, such as concussions, traumatic brain injury, facial injuries, and vascular injuries, as well as case reports. Results A total of 147 articles met the inclusion criteria and were divided into 11 topics based on anatomic site: general (16%), spine (13%), shoulder (13%), elbow (3%), hand and wrist (3%), trunk (0.7%), hip and pelvis (7%), thigh (3%), knee (24%), ankle (5%), and foot (12%). Of these studies, 74% were of level 4 evidence. Most studies obtained data from the NFL Combine database (26%), by searching the internet (24%), and via the NFL Injury Surveillance System (22%). Studies using internet search methods to identify injuries consistently found fewer participants than studies using the NFL Injury Surveillance System. Conclusion This systematic review provides National Collegiate Athletic Association and NFL team physicians with a single source of the most current literature regarding orthopaedic injuries in NFL players. Most research was published on knee, spine, shoulder, and foot injuries and consisted of level 4 evidence. A substantial portion of the published literature was based on data obtained from internet searches and may not accurately represent the NFL population.

Athletes With Musculoskeletal Injuries Identified at the NFL Scouting Combine and Prediction of Outcomes in the NFL: A Systematic Review. Orthop J Sports Med 2018; 6:2325967118813083. [PMID: 30560142 PMCID: PMC6293380 DOI: 10.1177/2325967118813083] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Prior to the annual National Football League (NFL) Draft, the top college football prospects are evaluated by medical personnel from each team at the NFL Scouting Combine. On the basis of these evaluations, each athlete is assigned an orthopaedic grade from the medical staff of each club, which aims to predict the impact of an athlete’s injury history on his ability to participate in the NFL. Purpose: (1) To identify clinical predictors of signs, symptoms, and subsequent professional participation associated with football-related injuries identified at the NFL Combine and (2) to assess the methodological quality of the evidence currently published. Study Design: Systematic review; Level of evidence, 3. Methods: A systematic review was conducted in accordance with the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) guidelines. We reviewed all studies that examined musculoskeletal injuries identified among athletes at the NFL Combine and associated outcomes. Data on signs, symptoms, and subsequent NFL participation were collected, and the methodological quality of the studies was assessed. Results: Overall, 32 studies, including 30 injury-specific studies, met the inclusion criteria. Twenty studies analyzed data collected at the NFL Combine from 2009 and later. When compared with matched controls, athletes with a history of a cervical or lumbar spine injury, rotator cuff repair, superior labrum anterior-posterior repair, anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction, full-thickness chondral lesions of the knee, or Lisfranc injury played in significantly fewer games early in their NFL careers. Additionally, athletes with a history of a cervical or lumbar spine injury, rotator cuff repair, and navicular injury had decreased career lengths versus controls. Defensive players and linemen were found to have decreased participation in the NFL for several injuries, including prior meniscectomy, anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction, and shoulder instability. Career length follow-up, measures of athletic participation, and matching criteria were highly variable among studies. Conclusion: For medical professionals caring for professional football athletes, this information can help guide orthopaedic grading of prospects at the NFL Combine and counseling of athletes on the potential impact of prior injuries on their professional careers. For future studies, improvements in study methodology will provide greater insight into the efficacy of current treatments and areas that require further understanding.
