ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
Reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) has shown improvement in clinical outcomes for various conditions, although some authors expressed concern about the restoration of active internal rotation (AIR). The current study assesses preoperative and intraoperative predictive factors of AIR in patients having a Grammont-style RSA with a minimum five year follow-up.METHODS:
We conducted a retrospective multicentric study, including patients operated on with a 155° Grammont-style RSA for cuff-related pathology or primary osteoarthritis with posterior subluxation or an associated cuff tear. Patients were clinically evaluated at a minimum of five year follow-up. Patients with previous surgery or those who had a tendon transfer with the RSA were excluded. Demographic parameters, BMI, preoperative notes, and operative reports were obtained from medical records. AIR was graded according to the constant score system from 0 to 10.RESULTS:
A total of 280 shoulders in 269 patients (mean age at surgery, 74.9 ± 5.9 years) met the inclusion criteria and were analyzed. The average follow-up was 8.1 years (range, 5-16 years). Overall, AIR increased from 4.2 (SD 2.5, range 0 to 10) preoperatively to 5.9 (SD 2.6, range 0 to 10) at final follow-up. At the last follow-up, AIR increased in 56% of cases, was unchanged in 26% and decreased in 18%. In 188 shoulders (67%), internal rotation was functional and allowed patients to reach the level of L3 or higher. Multivariable linear regression found the following preoperative clinical factors predictive of worse AIR after RSA male gender (ß = -1.25 [-2.10; -0.40]; p = 0.0042) and higher values of BMI (ß = -0.085 [-0.17; -0.0065]; p = 0.048). Two surgical factors were associated with better AIR after RSA glenoid lateralization with BIO-RSA technique (ß = 0.80 [0.043; 1.56]; p = 0.039) and subscapularis repair (ß = 1.16 [0.29; 2.02]; p = 0.0092).CONCLUSIONS:
With a mean of eight year follow-up (5 to 16 years), internal rotation was functional (≥ L3 level) in 67% of operated shoulders after Grammont-style RSA; however, two patients out of ten had decreased AIR after surgery. Male patients and those with higher BMIs had worse AIR, with glenoid lateralization (using the BIO-RSA technique) and subscapularis repair, as they are predictive of increased AIR after RSA.
