Aims Achieving purchase in native glenoid bone is essential for the stability of the glenoid baseplate when bone graft is used to address bone loss in both primary and revision shoulder arthroplasty procedures. The aim of this study is to assess the required depth of the baseplate peg in native bone when bone graft is used to result in satisfactory integration. Patients and methods The CT scans of patients who underwent either primary or revision arthroplasty procedures with bone graft using the SMR Axioma Trabecular Titanium (TT) Metal Backed glenoid system were assessed. We measured the depth of the glenoid peg in native glenoid bone. Measurements were taken by two authors separately. Results The scans of 53 patients (mean age 68 years) with a minimum follow-up of two years were reviewed. Implants included 12 anatomical and 41 reverse geometry prostheses. There were 17 primaries and 36 revisions: hemiarthroplasties (20) total (14) and reverse (2) implants. Bone grafts were from humeral head (15), iliac crest (34) and allograft (4). The mean depths were 8.8 mm (first assessor) and 9.10 mm (second assessor). The glenoid peg violated the glenoid vault in 32 patients and this did not adversely affect the outcome. There were three failures of implants all of which were aseptic failures and had peg penetration of less than 6 mm. Conclusions The mean depth of glenoid peg in native bone was 9 mm (variation between 0.2 and 0.52 mm at 95% confidence interval). Aseptic loosening was seen with peg penetration less than 6 mm in native bone. Glenoid vault violation was not associated with loosening.

ABSTRACT Lumbar and para-iliac hernias are rare and occur after removal of an iliac bone graft, nephrectomies, retroperitoneal aortic surgery, or after blunt trauma to the abdomen. The incidence of hernia after the removal of these grafts ranges from 0.5 to 10%. These hernias are a problem that surgeons will face, since bone grafts from the iliac crest are being used more routinely. The goal of this article was to report the technique to correct these complex hernias, using the technique of fixing the propylene mesh to the iliac bone and the result of this approach. In the period of 5 years, 165 patients were treated at the complex hernia service, 10 (6%) with hernia in the supra-iliac and lumbar region, managed with the technique of fixing the mesh to the iliac bone with correction of the failure. During the mean follow-up of 33 months (minimum of 2 and maximum of 48 months), there was no recurrence of the hernias.

Background. Clinically, autologous iliac crest bone grafts (ICBG) and bone tamping methods are often applied to manage depressed tibial plateau fractures (DTPFs). The purpose of this study was to describe and evaluate the technique of using structural bicortical autologous ICBG combined with the tunnel bone tamping method (TBTM) for treating DTPFs. Methods. All patients with DTPFs who underwent structural bicortical autologous ICBG combined with TBTM from January 2016 to February 2018 were prospectively analysed. Demographics, injury, surgery, postoperative complications, and clinical outcomes were recorded. All patients were followed up for more than 30 months. Postoperative radiography and CT were employed to assess fracture healing and the reduction quality. Results. Forty-three of the included patients completed the follow-up. No malreduction was observed. Based on the immediate postoperative imaging, the intra-articular step-off was significantly reduced (8.19 mm preoperatively vs. 1.30 mm immediate postoperatively, P < 0.001 ). From the immediate operation to the latest follow-up, the reduction was maintained significantly well, with a nonnegligible absolute difference (0.18 mm, P = 0.108 ). A remarkable secondary loss of reduction (intra-articular step   off > 3   mm ) was found in two elderly patients (2/43, 4.65%). The incidence of complications related to the bone-graft donor and bone-graft site was 2.33% and 4.65%, respectively. At the final follow-up, the mean Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) score of the knee was 98.19 ± 2.89 , and the mean 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36) score was 95.65 ± 4.59 . Conclusion. Structural bicortical autologous ICBG combined with TBTM is radiologically effective and stable in terms of complications for the DTPFs.

Background: Revision of failed anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty or hemiarthroplasty is a challenging procedure. Restoring adequate soft tissue balance in the revision setting can be particularly problematic. When persistent posterior instability is encountered in the revision setting, options include changing component position or size, posterior capsular plication (PCP), or conversion to a reverse arthroplasty. The purpose of this study was to report the clinical and radiographic outcomes, complications, and reoperations of PCP performed in the setting of revision anatomic shoulder arthroplasty. Patients and Methods: Between 1975 and 2013, 15 patients (16 shoulders) had PCP during revision anatomic shoulder arthroplasty. Indications for revision arthroplasty included posterior instability in 15, glenoid loosening in 3, polyethylene wear in 2, and glenoid erosion in 1 shoulder. The mean (standard deviation (SD)) age was 60.1 (12.6) years, and the median (range) follow-up was 68 (2–228) months. A retrospective chart review was conducted to obtain all data. Results: At the last follow-up, nine shoulders (56%) had absence of posterior radiographic subluxation. Five (31%) cases underwent reoperation due to persistent posterior instability. Complications were observed in seven (44%) cases. Complete pain relief was achieved in four (25%) shoulders. The mean (SD) postoperative forward flexion, external rotation, and the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons score were 110° (41°), 40° (29°), and 62.1 (21.9), respectively. Results were excellent in two (13%), satisfactory in seven (44%), and unsatisfactory in seven (44%) shoulders. Conclusions: PCP to correct posterior instability during revision anatomic shoulder arthroplasty had an unacceptably high failure rate. In these circumstances, consideration should instead be given to conversion to a reverse shoulder arthroplasty.

Objective: Comparison between bovine-derived demineralized bone matrix (DMBM) and iliac crest graft over long term for secondary alveolar bone grafting (SABG) in patients with unilateral cleft lip and palate (UCLP) in terms of radiological and clinical outcomes. Design: Prospective, randomized, parallel groups, double-blind, controlled trial. Setting: Unit of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Oral Health Science Centre, Postgraduate Institute of Medical Education & Research, Chandigarh. Participants: Twenty patients with UCLP. Interventions: Patients were allocated into group I (Iliac crest bone graft) and group II (DMBM) for SABG. Outcomes were assessed at 2 weeks, 6 months, and then after mean follow-up period of 63 months. Outcomes Measures: Volumetric analysis of the grafted bone in the alveolar cleft site was done through cone beam computed tomography using Cavalieri principle and modified assessment tool. Clinical assessment was performed in terms of pain, swelling, duration of hospital stay, cost of surgery, alar base symmetry, and donor site morbidity associated with iliac crest harvesting. Results: Volumetric analysis through Cavalieri principle revealed comparable bone uptake at follow-up of 6 months between group I (70%) and group II (69%). Modified assessment tool showed no significant difference between horizontal and vertical bone scores over short- and long-term follow-up. In group II, there was higher cost of surgery, but no donor site morbidity unlike group I. Conclusions: Demineralized bone matrix proved analogous to iliac crest bone graft as per volumetric analysis over shorter period. However, although statistically insignificant, net bone volume achieved was lower than the iliac crest graft at longer follow-up.

Reverse Total Shoulder

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.

Abstract Aim. To evaluate ultrasonography findings of Thoracolumbar Fascia (TLF) enthesis in patients with low back pain (LBP) due to iliac crest pain syndrome (ICPS). Method. The ultrasonographic and clinical findings of 60 patients with LBP due to ICPS were compared to those of 30 healthy volunteers with no LBP. Thickness of the TLF was measured with ultrasound (US) at its insertion on the iliac crest. Results. Forty-eight women and 12 men with a mean age of 42.1±11.3 years were diagnosed with ICPS. In patients, the mean thickness of the TLF was 2.51±0.70mm in affected sides compared to 1.81±0.44mm in the contralateral unaffected sides. The mean thickness difference of 0.82mm between the affected and non-affected sides was statistically significant (95%CI, 0.64-0.99, P<0.0001). In volunteers, the mean thickness of the TLF was 1.6±0.2mm. The mean thickness difference of 0.89mm between the affected sides of patients and volunteers was statistically significant (95%CI, 0.73-1.06, P<0.0001). Forty-two patients who didn’t improve with conservative therapy, received injections of methylprednisolone acetate and 1% lidocaine around the TLF enthesis. All patients reported complete relief of their LBP within 20 minutes of the injections thanks to the lidocaine anesthetic effect. Fifty-six (93.3%) patients were reached by phone for a long-term follow-up. Among them, 33 (58.9%) patients experienced a sustained complete pain relief after a mean follow-up of 45±19.3 months (range, 3-74 months). Conclusion. our findings suggest that TLF enthesopathy is a potential cause of nonspecific LBP that can be diagnosed using US.

Introduction: This study was conducted to report the refractive and visual outcome after Scleral Fixated Intraocular Lens (SFIOL) implantation in children with nontraumatic ectopia lentis. Methods: Retrospective review of the medical records of 25 eyes of 15 patients who underwent SFIOL implantation in children with non-traumatic ectopia lentis. Results: The mean best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) before SFIOL implantation was 1.07 ± 0.9 logMar units [median: 0.9, Interquartile range (ΙQR): 0.415 to 1.555] which improved to 0.41 ± 0.33 logMar units (median: 0.22, ΙQR: 0.180 to 1.555) at two months postoperative follow up. In phakic group, the mean spherical refraction preoperatively was -12.04 ± 7.82 DS (dioptre sphere) (IQR: +16 to -5.875) and postoperatively was +0.93 ± 2.67DS (IQR: -0.375 to +2). In aphakic group, the mean spherical refraction preoperatively was +12.22 ± 2.05 DS and postoperatively was +1.2 ± 1.9 DS. The mean total astigmatism preoperatively was -6.44 ± 4.95 DC (dioptre cylinder) (median: 6, IQR: -10.50 to +2) and postoperatively was -1.47 ± 0.98 DC (median: -1.5, IQR: -2 to - 0.625 ). The mean IOL induced astigmatism was -1.01 ± 0.95 DC (median -0.75, IQR: -1.33 to - 0.25). The spherical refractive equivalent was within 2 Diopter (D) of the target refraction calculated preoperatively in 20 eyes and in five eyes it was more than 2 D. Conclusion: SFIOL implantation is associated with good visual outcome with a significant improvement in the refractive error. However, a longer follow up is required to assess the change of refraction and the stability of the SFIOL.

Abstract Insertion of endosseous implants is often difficult because of lack of supporting bone. In the case of severe atrophy of the jaws, a large volume of autogenous bone can be harvested from the iliac crest and calvaria. Both grafts undergo partial resorption with time, but the rate of bone loss has not been fully elucidated. The aim of this study was to evaluate the alveolar bone height gain (ABHG) obtained with iliac crest and calvaria bone grafts. Twenty-five patients had mandibular bone grafts, 32 had maxillary bone grafts, and 11 had both mandibular and maxillary bone grafts. Measures were made on preoperative, postoperative, and follow-up radiographs. A general linear model was used to evaluate the rate of ABHG plotted against months elapsed from the time of the operation to the time of follow-up. General linear model output showed a statistically significant effect for only the type of donor bone graft (P = .004), with a better ABHG for calvaria. The iliac crest bone grafts lost most of the ABHG in the first 6 months, whereas calvaria bone grafts lost ABHG over a greater interval of time. The type of bone graft is the strongest predictor of ABHG, and calvaria bone graft had a higher stability than did iliac bone graft. However, the gap in ABHG between the 2 grafts tended to decrease over time.

Category: bone graft in foot and ankle surgery Introduction/Purpose: Autologous bone is recognized as the gold standard for bone grafting in orthopedics with the iliac crest being the common harvest site. In an attempt to minimize morbidity associated with structural bone graft harvest from the iliac crest and still maintain the proposed benefit of collecting and transplanting live cells and growth factors, Bone Marrow Aspirate Concentrate (BMAC) obtained from the iliac crest has become increasingly popular. However, any harvest procedure can potentially induce pain and introduce complications. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety and complications of BMAC from the anterior iliac crest for use in various foot and ankle fusion procedures. Methods: A retrospective chart review was performed on all patients that underwent BMAC harvest from the iliac crest at the time of their foot or ankle surgical procedure by one of four fellowship trained surgeons between 2014 and 2017 with a minimum of six-month follow-up. Patients were evaluated for complications, pain, and functional limitation secondary to the BMAC harvest. The final outcome follow-up for the cohort was conducted using a specifically designed telephone questionnaire to assess patient satisfaction. A total of 55 patients were included, with a median age of 58 years (range 31 to 81 years) and 69% were female. Results: Out of the 55 patients, 52 patients (94.5%) reported reported good to excellent results and were satisfied with the procedure at the time the questionnaire was conducted. Only 3 patients reported persistent complications and some element of dissatisfaction with the procedure after 6 months (the minimum follow up), 1 patient reported persistent numbness at the harvest site, and 2 reported some persistent pain at the harvest site lasting up to 6 months. Some patients reported transient complications that eventually resolved with no implication on their satisfaction of the procedure at the time of the telephone questionnaire. Four patients reported hematoma that was treated conservatively and eventually resolved spontaneously. Four patients reported transient numbness at the harvest site with eventual resolution. Immediately post-operatively, 50% of patients reported some element of post-operative pain. However, at the time of the final follow-up (at least 6 months), only 2 patients reported persistent pain at the harvest site lasting up to 6 months, but it was not considered activity-limiting pain. Conclusion: BMAC harvest is a safe procedure with a high rate of patient satisfaction and minimal morbidity with mostly self- limiting complications. This is the first study to evaluate the safety of BMAC as a part of foot and ankle surgical procedures.
