Bankart Lesions

Background: An engaging Hill-Sachs lesion is a defect of the humeral head, large enough to cause locking of the humeral head against the anterior corner of the glenoid rim when the arm is at 90° of abduction and more than 30° of external rotation. Hypothesis: When Bankart lesions are associated with engaging Hill-Sachs defects, simultaneous Bankart repair and remplissage provide lower recurrence rates than does Bankart repair alone. Study Design: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. Methods: Fifty patients (36 men, 14 women) with combined engaging Hill-Sachs and Bankart lesions were evaluated, before and after arthroscopic management, at a minimum follow-up of 2 years. After imaging and arthroscopic assessment, 25 patients underwent remplissage and Bankart repair, and 25 patients received Bankart repair alone. Patients were evaluated using the UCLA, Constant, and Rowe scores, and range of motion was measured using a goniometer. Postoperatively, all patients underwent magnetic resonance imaging to assess the status of healing of the anterior labrum and whether the tenodesis of the infraspinatus covered the Hill-Sachs defect. Results: At the last appointment, active forward elevation, external rotation beside the body, internal rotation, and all administered scores were significantly improved compared with baseline assessment, with no statistically significant intergroup differences. A new posttraumatic dislocation occurred in 5 patients, all from the Bankart-only group (20%). Conclusion: Remplissage is a safe, relatively short procedure that allows the surgeon to address large humeral defects with a low postoperative recurrence rate. Humeral head large defects predispose to recurrent instability of the shoulder and deserve surgical management.

Objectives: Previous studies of bony Bankart repair comparing single- and double-row reconstruction techniques have examined static forces required to displace the bony Bankart lesion. No studies, to date, have examined stability of bony Bankart repair with more physiologic concavity-compression model. We hypothesize the double-row fixation technique would provide superior stability and decreased displacement of a simulated bony Bankart lesion in a concavity-compression cadaveric model compared with single-row technique.Our aim was to examine the dynamic stability and ultimate displacement of single- vs double-row repair techniques for acute bony Bankart lesions Methods: Testing was performed on 13 matched pairs of glenoids with simulated bony Bankart fractures with a defect width of 25% of the glenoid diameter. Half of the fractures were repaired with a double-row technique, while the contralateral glenoids were repaired with a single-row technique. To determine dynamic biomechanical stability and ultimate step-off of the repairs a 150 N load and 2000 cycles of internal-external rotation at 1 Hz was applied to specimens to simulate standard rehabilitation protocols. Toggle was quantified throughout cycling with a coordinate measuring machine. After cyclic loading, the fracture displacement was measured. 3D spatial measurements were calculated using MATLAB. Results: The double-row technique resulted in significantly (p=0.005) less displacement (mean=342.48 µm SD=300.64 µm) than single-row technique (mean=981.84 µm, SD=640.38 µm). Ultimate fracture displacement of double-row repair was significantly less (mean=792.23 µm, SD=333.85 µm, p=0.046) after simulated rehabilitation by internal-external rotation cycling compared to single-row repair (mean=1,267.38 µm, SD=640.38 µm). Conclusion: The double-row fixation technique for arthroscopic bony Bankart repair results in superior stability throughout simulated rehabilitation and decreases ultimate displacement in a concavity-compression cadaveric model.

Background: It has been reported that engagement of the Hill-Sachs lesion affects postoperative recurrence of anterior shoulder instability. However, no method has been recognized as an effective preoperative means to predict engagement of the Hill-Sachs lesion. Purpose: This study was undertaken to assess the diagnostic validity of computed tomography (CT) with 3-dimensional (3D) reconstruction to judge engagement of the Hill-Sachs lesion preoperatively. Study Design: Cohort study (diagnosis); Level of evidence, 2. Methods: One hundred four consecutive patients (107 shoulders) who underwent arthroscopic Bankart repair for traumatic anterior shoulder instability were enrolled for this study. Preoperatively, CT with 3D reconstruction was performed on all patients to evaluate the size (width and depth measured on axial and coronal images), orientation (Hill-Sachs angle), and location (bicipital and vertical angles) of the Hill-Sachs lesion. Dynamic arthroscopic examination was made to confirm engagement of the Hill-Sachs lesion. Then the correlation between the results and measurements on CT images was statistically analyzed. Results: In cases of engaging lesions, the mean width was 52% (range, 27%-66%) and the mean depth was 14% (range, 8%-20%) of the humeral head diameter on axial images. The corresponding measurements on coronal images were 42% (range, 16%-67%) and 13% (range, 5%-24%), respectively. In cases of nonengaging lesions, the corresponding measurements were 40% (range, 0%-71%) and 10% (range, 0%-21%) on axial images and 31% (range, 0%-62%) and 11% (range, 0%-46%) on coronal images. The size of engaging Hill-Sachs lesions was significantly larger than that of nonengaging lesions on both axial and coronal images ( P = .001, < .001, .012, .007). The Hill-Sachs angle was 25.6° ± 7.4° in engaging lesions, which was significantly larger than 13.8° ± 6.2° in nonengaging lesions ( P < .001). The bicipital and vertical angles did not demonstrate significant correlation with engagement of the Hill-Sachs lesion ( P = .850, .584). Conclusion: On CT with 3D reconstruction images, the engaging Hill-Sachs lesions were larger in size and more horizontally oriented to the humeral shaft than nonengaging lesions. The authors concluded that preoperative prediction of the engagement of the Hill-Sachs lesion, based on these findings, would be useful in planning additional procedures to treat a significant bone defect on the humeral head.

Background: A capsular tear and humeral avulsion of the glenohumeral ligament lesion are not uncommon findings in association with a Bankart lesion. However, there have been few reports regarding the prevalence of such capsular lesions and the postoperative recurrence after capsular repair. Purpose/Hypothesis: This study investigated the prevalence of capsular lesions and clarified their influence on the postoperative recurrence of instability. In addition, factors were identified that were associated with the occurrence of capsular lesions and the postoperative recurrence of instability. We hypothesized that clinical outcomes would be improved by combining arthroscopic Bankart repair with simultaneous capsular repair. Study Design: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. Methods: Capsular lesions were retrospectively examined through operative records, still pictures, and videos in 172 shoulders with traumatic anterior instability. First, the prevalence of capsular lesions and their severity were investigated. Then, postoperative recurrence was determined in shoulders observed for a minimum of 2 years. Finally, factors were assessed that were associated with the occurrence of capsular lesions and the postoperative recurrence of instability. Results: A capsular lesion was recognized in 37 shoulders (21.5%), being severe and mild in 20 and 17, respectively. All were repaired simultaneously with the arthroscopic Bankart procedure. After follow-up for at least 2 years, recurrence of instability was detected in 10 of 34 shoulders (29.4%), including 6 (31.6%) with severe capsular lesions and 4 (26.7%) with mild lesions. The recurrence rate was significantly higher in shoulders with a capsular lesion than in shoulders without a capsular lesion (18 of 120, 15%; P = .013), but there was no significant difference between severe and mild lesions. Regardless of the sport played, capsular lesions were significantly more frequent in patients ≥30 years old, patients with complete dislocation, and patients with a coexisting Hill-Sachs lesion. Postoperative recurrence of instability was significantly more frequent in patients <30 years and competitive athletes. Conclusion: In shoulders undergoing arthroscopic Bankart repair, capsular lesions were often present and were associated with higher postoperative recurrence of instability. While these lesions were more frequent in older patients, postoperative recurrence of instability was more likely in young competitive athletes.

Background The present study aimed to determine whether arthroscopic remplissage with Bankart repair is an effective treatment for improving outcomes for collision athletes with Bankart and non-engaging Hill-Sachs lesions. Methods Twenty collision athletes underwent arthroscopic Bankart repair with posterior capsulotenodesis (B&R group) and were evaluated retrospectively, using pre- and postoperative WOSI (Western Ontario Shoulder Instability), EQ-5D (EuroQOL five dimensions), EQ-VAS (EuroQol-visual analogue scale) scores and Subjective Shoulder Value (SSV). The recurrence and re-operation rates were compared to a matched group with isolated arthroscopic Bankart repair (B group). Results The mean age was 25 years with an mean follow-up of 26 months. All mean scores improved with SSV of 90%. There was a mean deficit in external rotation at the side of 10°. One patient was treated with hydrodilatation for frozen shoulder. One patient had residual posterior discomfort but no apprehension in the B&R group compared to 5% persistent apprehension in the B group. In comparison, the recurrence and re-operation rates were 5% and 30% ( p = 0.015), 5% and 35% ( p = 0.005) in the B&R and B groups, respectively. Conclusions This combined technique demonstrated good outcomes, with lower recurrence rates in high-risk collision athletes. The slight restriction in external rotation does not significantly affect any clinical outcomes and return to play.

Context: Bone loss is a major factor in determining surgical choice in patients with anterior glenohumeral instability. Although bone loss has been described, there is no consensus on glenoid, humeral head, and bipolar bone loss limits for which arthroscopic-only management with Bankart repair can be performed. Objective: To provide guidelines for selecting a more complex repair or reconstruction (in lieu of arthroscopic-only Bankart repair) in the setting of glenohumeral instability based on available literature. Data Sources: An electronic search of the literature for the period from 2000 to 2019 was performed using PubMed (MEDLINE). Study Selection: Studies were included if they quantified bone loss (humeral head or glenoid) in the setting of anterior instability treated with arthroscopic Bankart repair. Study Design: Systematic review. Level of Evidence: Level 4. Data Extraction: Study design, level of evidence, patient demographics, follow-up, recurrence rates, and measures of bone loss (glenoid, humeral head, bipolar). Results: A total of 14 studies met the inclusion criteria. Of these, 10 measured glenoid bone loss, 5 measured humeral head bone loss, and 2 measured “tracking” without explicit measurement of humeral head bone loss. Measurement techniques for glenoid and humeral head bone loss varied widely. Recommendations for maximum glenoid bone loss for arthroscopic repair were largely <15% of glenoid width in recent studies. Recommendations regarding humeral head loss were more variable (many authors providing only qualitative descriptions) with increasing attention on glenohumeral tracking. Conclusion: It is essential that a standardized method of glenoid and humeral head bone loss measurements be performed preoperatively to assess which patients will have successful stabilization after arthroscopic Bankart repair. Glenoid bone loss should be <15%, and humeral head lesions should be “on track” if an arthroscopic-only Bankart is planned. If there is greater bone loss, adjunct or open procedures should be performed.

Recurrent Anterior Shoulder Instability

ImportanceThe Instability Severity Index (ISI) score was developed to evaluate a patient’s risk of recurrent shoulder instability following arthroscopic Bankart repair. While patients with an ISI score of >6 were originally recommended to undergo an open procedure (ie, Latarjet) to minimise the risk of recurrence, recent literature has called into question the utility of the ISI score.ObjectiveThe purpose of this systematic review was to evaluate the efficacy of the ISI score as a tool to predict postoperative recurrence among patients undergoing arthroscopic Bankart procedures.Evidence reviewArticles were included if study participants underwent arthroscopic Bankart repair for anterior shoulder instability and reported postoperative recurrence by ISI score at a minimum of 2 years of follow-up. Methodological study quality was assessed using the Methodological Index for Non-Randomized Studies criteria. Pearson’s χ2 test was used to compare recurrence rates among patients above and below an ISI score of 4. Sensitivity, specificity, mean ISI scores and predictive value of individual factors of the ISI score were qualitatively reviewed.FindingsFour studies concluded the ISI score was effective in predicting postoperative recurrence following arthroscopic Bankart repair; however, these studies found threshold values lower than the previously proposed score of >6 may be more predictive of recurrent instability. A pooled analysis of these studies found patients with an ISI score <4 to experience significantly lower recurrence rates when compared with patients with a score ≥4 (6.3% vs 26.0%, p<0.0001). The mean ISI score among patients who experienced recurrent instability was also significantly higher than those who did not.Conclusions and relevanceThe ISI score as constructed by Balg and Boileau may have clinical utility to help predict recurrent anterior shoulder instability following arthroscopic Bankart repair. However, this review found the threshold values published in their seminal article to be insufficient predictors of recurrent instability. Instead, a lower score threshold may provide as a better predictor of failure. The paucity of level I and II investigations limits the strength of these conclusions, suggesting a need for further large, prospective studies evaluating the predictive ability of the ISI score.Level of evidenceIV.

Abstract Antonio Maceo Grajales (1845–1896) is one of the most celebrated heroes of Cuban independence. Though he died before he could see the dawn of a sovereign, if U.S.-occupied, Cuba, Maceo would become an important node of nationalist commemoration. Throughout this process, Maceo’s blackness represented both a source of his prestige—the struggle against African slavery had been intimately tied to independence—and a barometer of lingering racial inequalities. Posthumous depictions thus tended to downplay racial tensions in a unifying vision of nation. Yet Maceo’s martyrdom in the Spanish-Cuban-American War also reverberated in more uncanny registers. Before and after his death, apocryphal sons emerged periodically from the shadows, opening battles over Maceo’s legacy. In their movement across borders, these real and apocryphal children gave voice to silences around race and sovereignty as they converged on the body of their lionized “father,” while also opening up narrative spaces wherein the status quo could be reimagined.

ABSTRACT Objective: To analyze the clinical and radiological evolution, indications and complications of the types of osteotomies in patients with disturbed sagittal balance (SB) resulting from post-traumatic kyphosis. The SB can be measured with a plumb line from the center of the body of C7 to S1, which allows recognizing the misalignment. The imbalance can be corrected by osteotomy. Methods: Thirty patients with SB loss due to post-traumatic kyphosis were studied from January 2014 to December 2017. SPO, PSO and VCR were performed to evaluate the degree of kyphosis before and after surgery, the Oswestry questionnaire was applied and the degree of correction, the days of hospital stay and transoperative bleeding were assessed. Results: Age, 50 years, SD = 14, follow-up time: 2-3 years. We performed 11 (36.7%) osteotomies of S-P, 17 (56.7%) pedicle subtractions and 2 (6.6%) vertebrectomies. Most of the lesions were found between levels L1 and L2; the complications were dehiscence of the surgical wound in 4 patients (13.3%) and infection in 2 (6.6%). The minimum surgical time was 3 hours; the Oswestry questionnaire did not showed statistically significant difference during the preoperative period, however, considerable improvement was observed 2 years after surgery. Conclusions: The use of corrective vertebral osteotomies significantly re-establishes the spinopelvic balance altered by different pathologies. It allows correcting in a single surgery the sagittal balance, achieving corrections from 10° to 40°, depending on the type of osteotomy performed, being a safe and effective procedure, which allows to restore the spinopelvic balance, improving the quality of life of the patients.

Background: In athletes with a first-time shoulder dislocation, arthroscopic Bankart repair (ABR) and the open Latarjet procedure (OL) are the most commonly utilized surgical procedures to restore stability and allow them to return to play (RTP). Purpose: To compare the outcomes of ABR and OL in athletes with a first-time shoulder dislocation. Study Design: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. Methods: We performed a retrospective review of patients with first-time shoulder dislocation who underwent primary ABR and OL and had a minimum 24-month follow-up. Indications for OL over ABR in this population were those considered at high risk for recurrence, including patients with glenohumeral bone loss. Patients who underwent ABR were pair-matched in a 2:1 ratio with patients who underwent OL by age, sex, sport, and level of preoperative play. The rate, level, and timing of RTP, as well as the Shoulder Instability–Return to Sport after Injury (SIRSI) score were evaluated. Additionally, we compared recurrence, visual analog scale pain score, Subjective Shoulder Value, Rowe score, satisfaction, and whether patients would undergo the surgery again. Results: Overall, 80 athletes who underwent ABR and 40 who underwent OL were included, with a mean follow-up of 50.3 months. There was no significant difference between ABR and OL in rate of RTP, return to preinjury level, time to return, or recurrent dislocation rate. There were also no differences between ABR and OL in patient-reported outcome scores or patient satisfaction. When collision athletes were compared between ABR and OL, there were no differences in RTP, SIRSI score, or redislocation rate. Conclusion: ABR and OL resulted in excellent clinical outcomes, with high rates of RTP and low recurrence rates. Additionally, there were no differences between the procedures in athletes participating in collision sports.
