Abstract Introduction Stemmed humeral implants have represented the gold standard in total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) for decades. Like many other joints, the latest trends in TSA designs aim at bone preservation. Current studies have demonstrated that native proximal humeral bone stresses are most closely mimicked by stemless implants. Nevertheless, there are concerns about the long-term performance of stemless designs. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the long-term radiographic changes at the proximal humerus in anatomical stemless press-fit TSA. Materials and Methods Between 2008 and 2010, 48 shoulders in 43 patients were resurfaced using an anatomic stemless shoulder prosthesis (TESS, Biomet). Thirty shoulders in twenty-five patients who were aged 65.7 ± 9.9 (34 to 82) years were available for clinical and radiographic review at a mean follow-up of 94.0 ± 8.9 (78 to 110) months. Results Radiographic changes of the proximal humerus due to stress shielding were found in 38.4% of the stemless TESS implants. Mild stress shielding accounted for 80% of the observed radiographic changes. Radiographs exhibited stable fixation of the stemless humeral press-fit implant at early and late follow-up. In contrast, radiolucent lines at the glenoid implant were found in 96.1% of the cases. Irrespective of the degree of radiographic changes, clinical scores (VAS, Quick-DASH, Constant score) significantly improved at follow-up. Conclusions The anatomic stemless press-fit implant seems to be favorable in terms of implant-related stress shielding. Clinical outcome was not affected by radiographic changes, demonstrating an 8-year clinical performance that seems to be comparable to conventional stemmed TSA.

Aims The aim of this study was to evaluate the differences in revision and complication rates, functional outcomes, and radiological outcomes between cemented and press-fit humeral stems in primary anatomical total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA). Materials and Methods A comprehensive systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted searching for studies that included patients who underwent primary anatomical TSA for primary osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis. Results There was a total of 36 studies with 927 cemented humeral stems and 1555 press-fit stems. The revision rate was 5.4% (95% confidence interval (CI) 3.9 to 7.4) at a mean of 89 months for cemented stems, and 2.4% (95% CI 1.1 to 4.7) at a mean of 40 months for press-fit stems. A priori subgroup analysis to control for follow-up periods demonstrated similar revision rates: 2.3% (95% CI 1.1 to 4.7) for cemented stems versus 1.8% (95% CI 1.4 to 2.9) for press-fit stems. Exploratory meta-regression found that longer follow-up was a moderating variable for revision (p = 0.003). Conclusion Cement fixation had similar revision rates when compared to press-fit stems at short- to midterm follow-up. Rotator cuff pathology was a prevalent complication in both groups but is likely not related to fixation type. Overall, with comparable revision rates, possible easier revision, and decreased operative time, humeral press-fit fixation may be an optimal choice for primary anatomical TSA in patients with sufficient bone stock.

Introduction Lesser tuberosity osteotomy (LTO) during anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty has a 13% nonunion rate. Treatment for LTO nonunion is controversial and poorly described in the literature. The purpose of this study was to compare the surgical and nonsurgical treatment outcomes of LTO nonunion. Methods A retrospective case series of 9 consecutive patients with LTO nonunion after primary anatomic shoulder arthroplasty at 1 institution from 2010 to 2016 were studied. Outcomes measured were radiographic evaluation of LTO on axillary X-ray, clinical range of motion (ROM), subscapularis strength, and pain at the time of LTO nonunion diagnosis and after either conservative care or surgical repair of the LTO nonunion. Results LTO nonunion was treated surgically in 4 and conservatively in 5 patients with average follow-up of 30 and 22 months, respectively. There were no significant differences in age, sex, or smoking status between groups. Treatment decision was a shared model of surgeon and patient. Displaced LTO nonunion was treated surgically in 2 and conservatively in 3 patients. There were no differences in LTO union rate of 50% in the surgical versus 60% in the conservative group. Abdominal compression test was abnormal in 50% of surgical versus 40% of conservative groups. At follow-up, ROM was lower in the surgical group with 128° forward elevation (FE) and 33° external rotation (ER) compared to 148° FE and 62° ER. Only 1 patient with LTO nonunion required conversion to reverse replacement. Conclusion LTO nonunion after shoulder arthroplasty is rare. Surgical repair of LTO nonunion does not significantly improve clinical or radiographic outcomes compared to conservative care.

Aims The reasons for failure of a hemirthroplasty (HA) when used to treat a proximal humeral fracture include displaced or necrotic tuberosities, insufficient metaphyseal bone-stock, and rotator cuff tears. Reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (rTSA) is often the only remaining form of treatment in these patients. The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical outcome after conversions from a failed HA to rTSA. Material and Methods A total of 35 patients, in whom a HA, as treatment for a fracture of the proximal humerus, had failed, underwent conversion to a rTSA. A total of 28 were available for follow-up at a mean of 61 months (37 to 91), having been initially reviewed at a mean of 20 months (12 to 36) postoperatively. Having a convertible design, the humeral stem could be preserved in nine patients. The stem was removed in the other 19 patients and a conventional rTSA was implanted. At final follow-up, patients were assessed using the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) score, the Constant Score, and plain radiographs. Results At final follow-up, the mean ASES was 59 (25 to 97) and the mean adjusted Constant Score was 63% (23% to 109%). Both improved significantly (p < 0.001). The mean forward flexion was 104° (50° to 155°) and mean abduction was 98° (60° to 140°). Nine patients (32%) had a complication; two had an infection and instability, respectively; three had a scapular fracture; and one patient each had delayed wound healing and symptomatic loosening. If implants could be converted to a rTSA without removal of the stem, the operating time was shorter (82 minutes versus 102 minutes; p = 0.018). Conclusion After failure of a HA in the treatment of a proximal humeral fracture, conversion to a rTSA may achieve pain relief and improved shoulder function. The complication rate is considerable.

Background: To evaluate clinical and radiological outcomes of bony increased offset-reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (BIO-RSA) in the Asian population at mid-term follow-up.Methods: From June 2012 to August 2017 at a single center, 43 patients underwent BIO-RSA, and 38 patients with a minimum of 2 years of follow-up were enrolled. We evaluated the preoperative and postoperative clinical outcomes, radiological outcomes (notching and loosening), and complications of BIO-RSA at the last follow-up. In addition, we divided these patients into notching and not-notching groups and compared the demographics, preoperative, and postoperative characteristics of patients between the two groups.Results: Visual analog scale, American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons, University of California-Los Angeles, and Simple Shoulder Test scores improved significantly from preoperative (average: 5, 39.43, 16.22, 3.94) to postoperative (average: 1.71, 78.91, 28.34, 7.8; p<0.05) outcomes. All range of motion except internal rotation improved significantly at the final follow-up (p<0.05), and the bone graft was well-incorporated with the native glenoid in all patients (100%). However, scapular notching was observed in 20/38 patients (53%). In the comparison between notching and not-notching groups (18 vs. 20 patients), there were no significant differences in demographics, radiological parameters, and clinical outcomes except acromion-greater tuberosity (AT) distance (p=0.003). Intraoperative complications were three metaphyseal fractures and one inferior screw malposition. Postoperative complications included one heterotopic ossification, one scapula neck stress fracture, one humeral stem loosening, and one late infection.Conclusions: BIO-RSA resulted in improved clinical outcomes at mid-term follow-up in the Asian population. Although better cosmesis and advantages of glenoid lateralization were observed, we observed higher rates of scapular notching compared to previously reported rates in BIO-RSA studies. In addition, adequate glenoid lateralization with appropriate humeral lengthening (AT distance) might reduce scapular notching.

A man in his mid-80s presented with bilateral posterior fracture dislocations of the humerus after suffering a seizure. He had Parskinson’s disease and lived with his wife at home. His left shoulder was not felt to be reconstructable. The initial treatment plan was to perform reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (rTSA) on the left and non-operatively reduce his right shoulder. A left rTSA was performed, but his right shoulder was unstable due to a glenoid fracture and soft tissue instability. In order to preserve the patient’s quality of life, a right rTSA was performed 4 days later. In the follow-up period, the patient was able to regain enough pain-free range of motion on activities of daily living. The patient died from complications of Parkinson’s disease 10 months postoperatively.
