ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
The morphometric features of the biceps groove were measured to investigate their correlation with the injury of the pulley and the long head of the biceps tendon (LHBT).METHODS:
A total of 126 patients undergoing arthroscopic rotator cuff repair surgery had their morphological features of bicipital groove evaluated on a 3D reconstruction model of the humeral head. The groove width, groove depth, opening angle, medial wall angle, and inclination angle of the bicipital groove were measured for each patient. During the surgery, the type of injury to the biceps pulley and the degree of long head of biceps tendon injury were assessed. The correlations of these injury assessments with bicipital groove measurements were analyzed.RESULTS:
The average groove width was(12.3 ± 2.1) mm. The average groove depth was(4.9 ± 1.4) mm. The average groove inclination angle was 26.3° ± 8.1°. The average opening angle was 89.8° ± 18.4°. The average medial groove wall angle was 40.6° ± 7.9°.Sixty six patients had injury of the biceps pulley structure, and their Martetschläger classifications were as follows type I injury in 12 patients, type II injury in 18 patients, and type III injury in 36 patients. The Lafosse grades of Lesions of LHBT were as follows 72 cases were grade 0 injury, 30 cases were grade I injury, and 24 cases were grade II injury. We found no significant correlation between the opening width, depth, inclination angle, opening angle, and medial wall angle of the morphological features of bicipital groove and injuries of the pulley and the LHBT. The correlation between pulley structure injury and lesions of LHBT was statistically significant.CONCLUSION:
Lesions of LHBT show strong correlation with pulley injuries.This study does not find a correlation between the injury of the pulley or the LHBT and bicipital groove morphology.Palavras-chave
