RESUMO
BACKGROUND: In patients with glenohumeral osteoarthritis and posteriorly eccentric wear patterns, the early to mid-term results of TSA using conservative glenoid reaming with no attempt at version correction have been favorable at early follow-up. The purpose of this study is to compare the clinical and radiographic outcomes of TSA using this technique for patients with and without eccentric wear patterns at a minimum 5-year follow-up. METHODS: Patients who underwent TSA with minimum 5-year follow-up were identified from an institutional registry. Preoperative and postoperative radiographs were used to determine humeroglenoid alignment (HGA-AP), humeroscapular alignment (HSA-AP), version, Walch classification and glenoid component seating. The outcome measures were the Simple Shoulder Test, glenoid component radiolucencies, and the occurrence of complications or revisions. RESULTS: Two hundred and ten patients were included in the study, of which 98 (47%) had posteriorly decentered humeral heads and 108 (51%) had centered humeral heads. There were 77 shoulders with Walch type A glenoids and 122 with Walch type B glenoids. At a mean 8-year follow-up, the final SST, change in SST and percentage of maximal improvement was not correlated with pre- and postoperative humeral head centering, Walch classification or glenoid version. There were no preoperative predictors of a low final SST. Two patients (1%) underwent open re-operations during the study period. In patients with Walch B1 and B2 glenoids (n=110), there were no differences in outcome measures between patients with postoperative retroversion of more and less than 15o. While 15 of 51 patients (29%) with minimum 5-year radiographs had glenoid radioluciences, these radiographic findings were not associated with inferior clinical outcomes. On multivariable analysis glenoid component radiolucencies were most strongly associated with incomplete component seating (OR 3.3, p = 0.082). CONCLUSION: The results of TSA with conservative glenoid reaming without attempt at version correction are favorable at minimum 5 year, mean 8-year follow-up. There were no differences in clinical and radiographic outcomes between patients with eccentric and concentric wear patterns. Incomplete glenoid component seating was the greatest predictor of glenoid component radiolucency, but these radiolucencies were not associated with inferior clinical outcomes.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Correction of glenoid retroversion is commonly performed in anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) to increase component contact area and decrease eccentric loading of the glenoid component. Despite demonstrated biomechanical advantages, limited information exists on the clinical benefit of correcting glenoid retroversion. The purpose of this systematic review is to critically evaluate the existing literature on the effect of preoperative and postoperative glenoid retroversion on clinical functional and radiologic outcomes in patients who underwent anatomic TSA. METHODS: A systematic literature review was performed according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses using PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library evaluating the impact of glenoid retroversion on clinical and radiologic outcomes of TSA. English-language studies of level I through IV evidence were included. Blinded reviewers conducted multiple screens and methodological quality was appraised using the Modified Coleman Methodology Score. RESULTS: Sixteen studies, including 3 level III and 13 level IV studies (1211 shoulders), satisfied all inclusion criteria. To address glenoid retroversion, 9 studies used corrective reaming techniques, and 4 studies used posteriorly augmented glenoids. Two studies used noncorrective reaming techniques. Mean preoperative retroversion ranged from 12.7° to 24° across studies. Eleven studies analyzed the effect of glenoid retroversion on clinical outcomes, including patient-reported outcome scores (PROs), range of motion (ROM), or clinical failure or revision rates. Most studies (8 of 11) did not report any significant association of pre- or postoperative glenoid retroversion on any clinical outcome. Of the 3 studies that reported significant effects, 1 study reported a negative association between preoperative glenoid retroversion and PROs, 1 study reported inferior postoperative abduction in patients with postoperative glenoid retroversion greater than 15°, and 1 study found an increased clinical failure rate in patients with higher postoperative retroversion. Ten studies reported radiographic results (medial calcar resorption, Central Peg Lucency [CPL] grade, Lazarus lucency grade) at follow-up. Only 1 study reported a significant effect of pre- and postoperative retroversion greater than 15° on CPL grade. CONCLUSION: There is currently insufficient evidence that pre- or postoperative glenoid version influences postoperative outcomes independent of other morphologic factors such as joint line medialization. Given that noncorrective reaming demonstrated favorable postoperative outcomes, and postoperative glenoid version was not significantly and consistently found to impact outcomes, there is inconclusive evidence that correcting glenoid retroversion is routinely required.

BACKGROUND: Posterior humeral subluxation (PHS) in B2/B3 glenoid is a cause of asymmetric long-term stress on the glenoid and the potential reason for glenoid loosening in anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty (ATSA) and painful glenoid erosion in hemiarthroplasty with metallic heads (HA-Metal). We hypothesized that corrective and concentric reaming (CCR) of the glenoid associated with pyrocarbon hemiarthroplasty (HA-PYC) could improve the centering of the humeral head and decrease the risk of persistent painful glenoid erosion in young/active patients with B2/B3 glenoid. METHODS: Between 2014 and 2020, 41shoulders (in 35 patients, mean age of 57.9 years) underwent HA-PYC combined with CCR reaming for B2 (n=30) or B3 (n=11) osteoarthritis. Patients were prospectively followed with computed tomography (CT) scans performed preoperatively, immediate postoperatively and at last follow-up (> 2 years). The primary outcomes were 3D-corrected CT-scan measurements of glenoid version, PHS, progression of glenoid erosion. Secondary outcomes included functional outcome scores, return to activities, and revision rate and complications. RESULTS: At a mean follow-up of 4.5 years (2 to 9.5 years), the prosthesis survival was 95% (39/41). No patient has been reoperated for painful glenoid erosion. The mean glenoid retroversion decreased from 17.1° ± 7.5 preoperatively to 8.3° ± 8.2 at last follow-up (p=0.001), and the mean PHS from 74% to 56.5% (p=0.001) based on the scapular plane and from 59.9% to 50.3% based on the glenoid plane. The humeral head was recentered in 97% according to the glenoid surface and 71% according to the scapular plane. Correction of PHS in the scapular plane was highly correlated to correction of glenoid retroversion (p<0.001). CT-scan measurements showed that the average total medialization was 3.7 ± 3.2 mm (2.0 ± 1.8 mm due to reaming and only 1.7 ± 2.4 mm due to erosion). The Adjusted Constant score increased from 43% ± 13 to 97% ± 16 and the Subjective Shoulder Value from 38% ± 14 to 84 % ± 12 (p<0.001). Overall, 84% of active patients returned to work and all patients returned to sports. CONCLUSION: In B2/B3 glenoid arthritis, corrective, concentric glenoid reaming combined with HA-PYC improves centering of the humeral head and shows a low risk of painful glenoid erosion at mid-term follow-up. The combined procedure results in excellent functional outcomes and high prosthesis survivorship at mid-term follow-up. HA-PYC and CCR is offering an alternative shoulder arthroplasty for young/active patients with B2/B3 glenoid osteoarthritis who want to return to work or sports practice.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Hypoplastic glenoid morphology in the setting of glenohumeral osteoarthritis is a rare yet complex surgical problem. Treatment of this patient population with anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty (aTSA) remains controversial. Furthermore, there is no gold-standard approach, with limited guidance for surgeons on the need for glenoid version correction in the setting of a dysplastic glenoid. The purpose of this study was to evaluate mid- to long-term outcomes and reoperation rates of aTSA for the treatment of primary glenohumeral osteoarthritis with Walch type C glenoid deformity. METHODS: This observational, retrospective cohort study identified patients with a Walch type C glenoid who underwent aTSA at 2 institutions between 2007 and 2016. Patients were contacted to complete updated patient-reported outcome measures at a minimum of 5.5 years postoperatively. The outcome measures collected included the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) score and Single Assessment Numeric Evaluation (SANE) score. Secondary outcomes included any additional surgical procedures on the operative shoulder, patient satisfaction, and willingness to undergo aTSA again. RESULTS: In total, 30 patients met the inclusion criteria, of whom 26 (86.7%) were able to be contacted to undergo final outcome evaluations. The mean age at the time of surgery was 61.3 years (range, 40.9-75.5 years), and 20 patients (76.9%) were men. The mean follow-up period was 8.5 years (range, 5.5-11.3 years) after surgery. Treatment was performed with an augmented component in 9 patients and with a standard component in 17. Of the 17 patients with non-augmented components, 9 underwent partial correction with asymmetrical reaming, 3 received a mini-inset glenoid component, and 2 had an anteriorly offset humeral component. At final follow-up, patients had a mean ASES score of 83.6 ± 16.7, ASES pain score of 24.7 ± 20.8, SANE score of 80.4 ± 20.9, and patient satisfaction rate of 84.1%. No statistically significant differences in any outcome measure were observed between patients with augmented glenoid components and those with non-augmented glenoid components. One revision to reverse shoulder arthroplasty was performed for instability at 7 years postoperatively after a traumatic dislocation. All patients reported that they would be willing to undergo the same surgical procedure again. DISCUSSION: Despite variance in glenoid reconstructive approach, aTSA provides satisfactory and sustained improvements in patient-reported outcomes in patients with glenoid dysplasia and primary glenohumeral osteoarthritis with a low revision rate at a mean of 8.5 years. Anatomic shoulder arthroplasty should remain a surgical option in patients with Walch type C glenoid deformity.

BACKGROUND: The management of Walch B2 glenoid deformities in primary glenohumeral osteoarthritis is frequently debated. Previous literature has shown that the treatment of B2 glenoids with high-side reaming and anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty (aTSA) perform well in the short-term but is associated with an increased glenoid component failure rate in severe deformities. Therefore, many have explored alternative options, including augmented anatomic glenoid components and reverse shoulder arthroplasty. Our goal in this study is to provide mid-term radiographic and clinical outcomes after high-side reaming and aTSA for B2 glenoids. METHODS: Patients were followed both clinically and radiographically. Preoperative computed tomography scans were used for retrospective analysis of deformity. Both preoperative and postoperative visual analog scale pain, American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons score, and Simple Shoulder Test scores were collected. Radiographs were analyzed preoperatively and postoperatively for humeral head decentering relative to the glenoid vault, immediate glenoid seating, and final glenoid peg radiolucency. RESULTS: Of the original cohort of 59 patients (6 now deceased) reported at a mean radiographic follow-up of 3.4 years, 34 shoulders in 33 patients with B2 glenoids (mean retroversion 18.9°, range 4°-32°) were available for follow-up at a mean of 8.6 years (range 5.5-11.2) after high-side glenoid reaming with aTSA. Three (5.1%) of the original 59 shoulder were revised. At final follow-up, 3 of 30 (10.0%) shoulders had radiographic glenoid component failure, but were unrevised. Glenoid component failure was associated with worse initial glenoid component seating (mean Lazarus score 1.2 vs. 2.0, P = .002). Glenoid failure was also associated with increased posterior humeral head subluxation at 2-4 year follow-up (mean 5.6% vs. 12.6%, P = .045) and at final follow-up (mean 7.0% vs. 21%, P = .002). There was no association between glenoid component failure and preoperative retroversion, inclination, or humeral head subluxation (all P > .05). Glenoid component failure was associated with worse American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (88 vs. 73) and visual analog scale pain (0.8 vs. 2.1) scores (both P = .03). CONCLUSIONS: At a mean of 8.6 years, 88% of shoulders available for follow-up had well-fixed glenoid components. Glenoid component failure was associated with poor initial glenoid component seating, with failed components having an average of 25% of the glenoid component not seated. Preoperative deformity such as glenoid retroversion, inclination, or humeral head subluxation did not predict glenoid component failure. This study supports that initial glenoid component seating and recurrence of posterior humeral head subluxation may be the most important factors for mid-term glenoid component survival in aTSA in patients with B2 glenoids.

BACKGROUND: Posteriorly augmented glenoid components in anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) address posterior glenoid bone loss with inconsistent results. The purpose of this study was to identify preoperative and postoperative factors that impact range of motion (ROM) and function after augmented TSA in patients with type B2 or B3 glenoid morphology. METHODS: This was a retrospective review of all patients who underwent TSA with a step-type augmentation performed by a single surgeon between 2009 and 2018. Patients with Walch type B2 or B3 glenoids were included. Outcomes included forward elevation (FE), external rotation (ER), internal rotation (IR), Single Assessment Numeric Evaluation (SANE) score, and visual analog scale pain score. Preoperative imaging was reviewed to assess glenoid retroversion and posterior humeral head subluxation relative to the scapular body and midglenoid face. Postoperative measurements included glenoid retroversion, subluxation relative to the scapular body, subluxation relative to the central glenoid peg, and center-peg osteolysis. Measurements were performed by investigators blinded to ROM and functional outcome scores. RESULTS: Fifty patients (mean age, 68.1 ± 8.0 years) with a mean follow-up period of 42.0 months (range, 24-106 months) were included. Glenoid morphology included type B2 glenoids in 41 patients and type B3 glenoids in 9. One patient had center-peg osteolysis, and 1 patient had glenoid component loosening. Average preoperative FE, ER, and IR were 110°, 21°, and S1, respectively. Average postoperative FE, ER, and IR were 155°, 42°, and L1, respectively. The mean postoperative visual analog scale score was 0.5 ± 0.8, and the mean SANE score was 94.5 ± 5.6. Type B3 glenoids were associated with better postoperative IR compared with type B2 glenoids (T10 vs. L1, P = .024), with no other differences in ROM between the glenoid types. Preoperative glenoid retroversion did not significantly impact postoperative ROM. Postoperative glenoid component retroversion and residual posterior subluxation relative to the scapular body or glenoid face did not correlate with ROM in any plane. However, posterior subluxation relative to the glenoid face was moderately associated with lower SANE scores (r = -0.448, P = .006). CONCLUSION: Patients achieved excellent functional outcomes and pain improvement after TSA with an augmented glenoid component. Postoperative ROM and function showed no clinically important associations with preoperative or postoperative glenoid retroversion or humeral head subluxation in our cohort of posteriorly augmented TSAs, except for worse functional scores with increased humeral head subluxation in relation to the glenoid surface.

BACKGROUND: There is concern that excessive glenoid component retroversion leads to altered biomechanics and baseplate failure in reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA). However, much of this has been rooted in the total shoulder arthroplasty experience. In the current literature, it is not well defined whether glenoid baseplate positioning in reverse arthroplasty affects functional outcomes. Our practice has been to preserve glenoid bone stock without aiming for a certain degree of retroversion. We aimed to evaluate the correlation between pre- and postoperative retroversion in a cohort of RSAs and determine the effect of glenoid retroversion on functional outcomes, range of motion, and postoperative complications. METHODS: A retrospective review of patients who had an RSA between 2017 and 2019 was performed. Preoperative computed tomography scans were used to assess preoperative retroversion, and axillary radiographs were used for postoperative retroversion. Outcome measures included American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons score, visual analog scale for pain score, Single Assessment Numeric Evaluation score, range of motion, radiographic lucency, and complications. RESULTS: A total of 271 patients were eligible for the study. There was a 76.9% 2-year follow-up rate. In total 161 patients had postoperative retroversion ≤15° (group A), and 110 patients had retroversion >15° (group B). There were no significant differences in American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons, visual analog scale, or Single Assessment Numeric Evaluation scores. There were also no significant differences in postoperative range of motion. There was 1 baseplate failure in each group, and there was 1 patient in group B with asymptomatic radiographic loosening (baseplate at risk). The mean change in pre- to postoperative retroversion was 1° and 4° in groups A and B, respectively. CONCLUSION: There was no significant difference in postoperative functional outcomes, range of motion, or complications between patients who had baseplate retroversion ≤15° vs. those who had retroversion >15°.

BACKGROUND: Treatment of posterior shoulder instability (PSI) associated with excessive glenoid retroversion is a rare, challenging problem in shoulder surgery. One proposed technique is posterior open wedge glenoid osteotomy to correct excessive glenoid retroversion as described by Scott. However, this operation is rarely performed, and limited long-term outcomes using this approach are available. The goal of this study was to analyze the long-term outcomes of posterior open wedge glenoid osteotomy for PSI associated with excessive glenoid retroversion. METHODS: Six consecutive patients (7 shoulders) with a mean age of 24 years (range 19-34) were treated with posterior open wedge glenoid osteotomy for PSI associated with a glenoid retroversion greater than 15° and followed up clinically and radiographically at a mean age of 15 years (range 10-19). RESULTS: Recurrent, symptomatic PSI was observed in 6 of 7 shoulders (86%). One necessitated revision with a posterior (iliac crest) bone block procedure and was rated as a failure and excluded from functional analysis. One patient rated his result as excellent, 3 as good, 1 as fair, and 1 as unsatisfactory. Mean relative Constant Score (CS%) was unchanged from preoperation to final follow-up (CS% = 72%) and pain did not significantly decrease (Constant Score = 7-10 points; P = .969). The mean Subjective Shoulder Value (SSV) improved postoperatively, but with 6 patients the improvement did not reach statistical significance (SSV = 42%-67%, P = .053) and the total Western Ontario Shoulder Instability Index averaged 30% at the final follow-up. Mean glenoid retroversion of all 7 shoulders was corrected from 20° (range 16°-26°) to 3° (range -3° to +8°) (P = .018). In the 5 shoulders with preoperative static posterior subluxation of the humeral head, the humeral head was not recentered. All 7 shoulders showed progression of glenoid arthritic changes. CONCLUSIONS: Posterior open wedge glenoid osteotomy for PSI associated with excessive glenoid retroversion neither reliably restored shoulder stability nor recentered the joint or prevent progression of osteoarthritis. Alternative treatments for PSI associated with excessive glenoid retroversion have to be developed and evaluated.

BACKGROUND: A transverse force couple (TFC) functional imbalance has been demonstrated in osteoarthritic shoulders by recent 3-dimensional (3D) muscle volumetric studies. Altered rotator cuff vectors may be an additional factor contributing to a muscle imbalance and the propagation of glenoid deformity. METHODS: Computed tomography images of 33 Walch type A and 60 Walch type B shoulders were evaluated. The 3D volumes of the entire subscapularis, supraspinatus, and infraspinatus-teres minor (ISP-Tm) and scapula were manually segmented. The volume masks and scapular landmarks were imported into MATLAB to create a coordinate system, enabling calculation of muscle force vectors. The direction of each muscle force vector was described in the transverse and vertical plane, calculated with respect to the glenoid. Each muscle vector was then resolved into compression and shear force across the glenoid face. The relationship between muscle force vectors, glenoid retroversion or inclination, compression/shear forces on the glenoid, and Walch type was determined using linear regression. RESULTS: In the transverse plane with all rotator cuff muscles combined, increasing retroversion was significantly associated with increasing posterior drag (P < .001). Type B glenoids had significantly more posterior drag than type A (P < .001). In the vertical plane for each individual muscle group and in combination, superior drag increases as superior inclination increases (P < .001). Analysis of individual muscle groups showed that the anterior thrust of ISP-Tm and supraspinatus switched to a posterior drag at 8° and 10° of retroversion respectively. The compression force on the glenoid face by ISP-Tm and supraspinatus did not change with increasing retroversion for type A shoulders (P = .592 and P = .715, respectively), but they did for type B shoulders (P < .001 for both). The glenoid shear force ratio in the transverse plane for the ISP-Tm and supraspinatus moved from anterior to posterior shear with increasing glenoid retroversion, crossing zero at 8° and 10° of retroversion, whereas the subscapularis exerted a posterior shear force for every retroversion angle. CONCLUSION: Increased glenoid retroversion is associated with increased posterior shear and decreased compression forces on the glenoid face, explaining some of the pathognomonic bone morphometrics that characterize the osteoarthritic shoulder. Although the subscapularis always maintains a posterior thrust, the ISP-Tm and supraspinatus together showed an inflection at 8° and 10° of retroversion, changing from an anterior thrust to a posterior drag. This finding highlights the importance that in anatomic TSA the rotator cuff functional balance might be better restored by correcting glenoid retroversion to less than 8°.

BACKGROUND: For optimal prosthetic anchoring in omarthritis surgery, a differentiated knowledge on the mineralisation distribution of the glenoid is important. However, database on the mineralisation of diseased joints and potential relations with glenoid angles is limited. METHODS: Shoulder specimens from ten female and nine male body donors with an average age of 81.5 years were investigated. Using 3D-CT-multiplanar reconstruction, glenoid inclination and retroversion angles were measured, and osteoarthritis signs graded. Computed Tomography-Osteoabsorptiometry (CT-OAM) is an established method to determine the subchondral bone plate mineralisation, which has been demonstrated to serve as marker for the long-term loading history of joints. Based on mineralisation distribution mappings of healthy shoulder specimens, physiological and different CT-OAM patterns were compared with glenoid angles. RESULTS: Osteoarthritis grades were 0-I in 52.6% of the 3D-CT-scans, grades II-III in 34.3%, and grade IV in 13.2%, with in females twice as frequently (45%) higher grades (III, IV) than in males (22%, III). The average inclination angle was 8.4°. In glenoids with inclination ≤10°, mineralisation was predominantly centrally distributed and tended to shift more cranially when the inclination raised to > 10°. The average retroversion angle was - 5.2°. A dorsally enhanced mineralisation distribution was found in glenoids with versions from - 15.9° to + 1.7°. A predominantly centrally distributed mineralisation was accompanied by a narrower range of retroversion angles between - 10° to - 0.4°. CONCLUSIONS: This study is one of the first to combine CT-based analyses of glenoid angles and mineralisation distribution in an elderly population. The data set is limited to 19 individuals, however, indicates that superior inclination between 0° and 10°-15°, and dorsal version ranging between - 9° to - 3° may be predominantly associated with anterior and central mineralisation patterns previously classified as physiological for the shoulder joint. The current basic research findings may serve as basic data set for future studies addressing the glenoid geometry for treatment planning in omarthritis.

BACKGROUND: Static posterior subluxation of the humeral head is a pre-osteoarthritic deformity preceding posterior erosion in young patients. Its etiology remains unknown. The aim of this study was to analyze the differences in scapular morphology between young patients with pre-osteoarthritic static posterior subluxation of the humeral head and healthy controls with a centered humeral head. METHODS: We performed a retrospective analysis of all patients with pre-osteoarthritic static posterior subluxation of the humeral head who were treated in our institution between January 2018 and November 2019. Fourteen shoulders in 12 patients were included in this study and then matched according their age, sex, and affected side with controls. Computed tomography images of both groups were compared in the standardized axial imaging plane for differences in scapular morphology. The following parameters were measured: glenoid version relative to the Friedman line and scapular blade axis, scapulohumeral and glenohumeral subluxation index, and neck angle, as well as glenoid and humeral offset. RESULTS: The patients in the subluxation group showed significantly higher scapulohumeral and glenohumeral subluxation indexes than controls (0.76 vs. 0.55 [P < .0001] and 0.58 vs. 0.51 [P = .016], respectively). The mean measurements of glenoid version according to the Friedman line and relative to the scapular blade axis were significantly higher in the subluxation group than in controls (19° vs. 4° [P < .0001]and 14° vs. 2° [P = .0002], respectively). The glenoid vault was significantly more anteriorly positioned with respect to the scapular blade axis in the subluxation group than in controls (neck angle, 166° vs. 173° [P = .0003]; glenoid offset, 9.2 mm vs. 4.6 mm [P = .0005]). The midpoint of the humeral head showed a posterior offset with respect to the scapular blade axis in the subluxation group, whereas controls had an anteriorly placed midpoint of the humeral head (-2 mm vs. 3.1 mm, P = .01). A higher scapulohumeral subluxation index showed significant correlations with an increased anterior offset of the glenoid vault (increased glenoid offset: r = 0.493, P = .008 and decreased neck angle: r = -0.554, P = .002), a posterior humeral offset (r = -0.775, P < .0001), and excessive glenoid retroversion measured by both methods (Friedman line: r = 0.852, P < .0001; scapular blade axis: r = 0.803, P < .0001). A higher glenohumeral subluxation index also correlated significantly with an increased anterior offset of the glenoid vault (increased glenoid offset: r = 0.403, P = .034; decreased neck angle: r = -0.406, P = .032) and posterior humeral offset (r = -0.502, P = .006). CONCLUSION: Young patients with pre-osteoarthritic static posterior subluxation of the humeral head have significant constitutional differences in scapular morphology in terms of an increased anterior glenoid offset, excessive glenoid retroversion, and increased posterior humeral offset in relation to the scapular blade compared with healthy matched controls.

BACKGROUND: Preoperative planning software is gaining utility in reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (RTSA), particularly when addressing pathologic glenoid wear. The purpose of this study was to quantify inter- and intrasurgeon variability in preoperative planning a series of RTSA cases to identify differences in how surgeons consider optimal implant placement. This may help identify opportunities to establish consensus when correlating plan differences with clinical data. METHODS: A total of 49 computed tomography scans from actual RTSA cases were planned for RTSA by 9 fellowship-trained shoulder surgeons using the same platform (Exactech GPS, Exactech Inc., Gainesville, FL, USA). Each case was planned a second time 6-12 weeks later. Variability within and between surgeons was measured for implant selection, version correction, inclination correction, and implant face position. Interclass correlation coefficients, and Pearson and Light's kappa coefficient were used for statistical analysis. RESULTS: There was considerable variation in the frequency of augmented baseplate selection between surgeons and between rounds for the same surgeon. Thresholds for augment use also varied between surgeons. Interclass correlation coefficients for intersurgeon variability ranged from 0.43 for version, 0.42 for inclination, and 0.25 for baseplate type. Pearson coefficients for intrasurgeon variability were 0.34 for version and 0.30 for inclination. Light's kappa coefficient for baseplate type was 0.61. CONCLUSIONS: This study demonstrates substantial variability both between surgeons and between rounds for individual surgeons when planning RTSA. Although average differences between plans were relatively small, there were large differences in specific cases suggesting little consensus on optimal planning parameters and opportunities to establish guidelines based on glenoid pathoanatomy. The correlation of preoperative planning with clinical outcomes will help to establish such guidelines.

OBJECTIVE: A major factor that impacts the long-term outcome and complication rates of total shoulder arthroplasty is the preoperative posterior glenoid bone loss quantified by glenoid retroversion. The purpose of this study was to assess if glenoid retroversion varies significantly at different glenoid heights in Walch B2 and B3 glenoids. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Patients with B2 and B3 glenoid types were included following retrospective review of 386 consecutive CT shoulder studies performed for arthroplasty preoperative planning. True axial CT reconstructions were created using a validated technique. Two readers independently measured the glenoid retroversion angles according to the Friedman method using the "intermediate" glenoid at three glenoid heights: 75% (upper), 50% (equator), and 25% (lower). The variances between the three levels for a given patient were calculated. RESULTS: Twenty-nine B2 and 8 B3 glenoid types were included. There was no significant difference in variance of glenoid version among the three levels in B2 or B3 groups. The mean variance in retroversion degree between equator-lower, upper-equator, and upper-lower glenoid was - 0.4, 0.3, and - 0.2 for B2; and - 0.2, 1.9, and 1.9 for B3 glenoid, respectively. The level of inter-reader agreement was fair to good for variance at equator-lower, and good to excellent for upper-equator and upper-lower glenoid. CONCLUSIONS: Glenoid version can be accurately measured at any level between 25 and 75% of glenoid height for Walch B2 and B3. We recommend that the glenoid equator be used as the reference to assure consistent and reliable version measurements in this group of patients.

BACKGROUND: Augmented glenoid implants are available to help restore the biomechanics of the glenohumeral joint with excessive retroversion. It is imperative to understand their behavior to make a knowledgeable preoperative decision. Therefore, our goal was to identify an optimal augmented glenoid design based on finite element analysis (FEA) under maximum physiological loading. METHODS: FEA models of 2 augmented glenoid designs-wedge and step-were created per the manufacturers' specifications and virtually implanted in a scapula model to correct 20° of retroversion. Simulation of shoulder abduction was performed using the FEA shoulder model. The glenohumeral force ratio, relative micromotion, and stress levels on the cement mantle, glenoid vault, and backside of the implants were compared between the 2 designs. RESULTS: The force ratio was 0.56 for the wedge design and 0.87 for the step design. Micromotion (combination of distraction, translation, and compression) was greater for the step design than the wedge design. Distraction measured 0.05 mm for the wedge design and 0.14 mm for the step component. Both implants showed a similar pattern for translation; however, compression was almost 3 times greater for the step component. Both implants showed high stress levels on the cement mantle. At the glenoid vault and on the implants, the stress levels were 1.65 MPa and 6.62 MPa, respectively, for the wedge design and 3.78 MPa and 13.25 MPa, respectively, for the step design. CONCLUSION: Implant design slightly affects joint stability; however, it plays a major role regarding long-term survival. Overall, the augmented wedge design provides better implant fixation and stress profiles with less micromotion.

BACKGROUND: Augmented glenoid implants to correct bone loss can possibly reconcile current prosthetic failures and improve long-term performance for total shoulder arthroplasty. Biomechanical implant studies have suggested benefits from augmented glenoid components, but limited evidence exists on optimal design. METHODS: An integrated kinematic finite element analysis (FEA) model was used to evaluate optimal augmented glenoid design based on biomechanical performance in translation in the anteroposterior plane similar to clinical loading and failure mechanisms with osteoarthritis. Computer-aided design software models of 2 different commercially available augmented glenoid designs-wedge (Equinox; Exactech, Inc., Gainesville, FL, USA) and step (STEPTECH; DePuy Synthes, Warsaw, IN, USA) were created according to precise manufacturer's dimensions of the implants. Using FEA, they were virtually implanted to correct 20° of retroversion. Two glenohumeral radial mismatches, 3.5/4 mm and 10 mm, were evaluated for joint stability and implant fixation simulating high-risk conditions for failure. RESULTS: The wedged and step designs showed similar glenohumeral joint stability under both radial mismatches. Surrogate for micromotion was a combination of distraction, translation, and compression. With similar behavior and measurements for distraction and translation, compression dictated micromotion (wedge: 3.5 mm = 0.18 mm and 10 mm = 0.10 mm; step: 3.5 mm = 0.19 mm and 10 mm = 0.25 mm). Stress levels on the backside of the implant and on the cement mantle were higher using a step design. DISCUSSION: Greater radial mismatch has the advantage of providing higher glenohumeral stability with tradeoffs, such as higher implant and cement mantle stress levels, and micromotion worse when using a step design.

BACKGROUND: This study describes the short-term functional and radiographic outcomes after total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) in shoulders with a B2 glenoid deformity addressed with corrective reaming. METHODS: We conducted a retrospective series of consecutive patients who underwent TSA with a Walch B2 glenoid quantified by computed tomography scan. All glenoid deformities were addressed using partially corrective glenoid reaming. Radiographic and functional outcome measures, including scores on the visual analog scale for pain, American Shoulder and Elbow Standardized Shoulder Assessment, and Simple Shoulder Test were collected. RESULTS: Functional outcome scores were available for 59 of 92 eligible subjects (64%) at a mean of 50 months. The mean preoperative retroversion measured 18° (range, -1° to 36°), superior inclination was 8° (range, -11° to 27°), and posterior subluxation was 67% (range, 39%-91%). Mean visual analog scale improved from 7.4 to 1.4, the American Shoulder and Elbow Shoulder Standardized Assessment improved from 35.4 to 84.3, and the SST improved from 4.5 to 9.1. Radiographs were evaluated at a mean of 31 months: 38 had no glenoid radiolucent lines, 13 glenoids had grade 1, 2 had grade 2, and 5 had grade 3 lucencies. There was no difference in the rate of progression of glenoid radiolucencies between shoulders with a preoperative glenoid version of ≤20° (27.8%) compared with glenoids with >20° of retroversion (22.7%, P = .670). No shoulders were revised due to glenoid loosening or instability. CONCLUSION: TSA with partial corrective glenoid reaming in selected shoulders with a B2 glenoid deformity resulted in excellent functional and radiographic outcomes at short-term follow-up, with a low risk of revision surgery.

BACKGROUND: Posterior humeral subluxation is the main cause of failure of total shoulder arthroplasty. We aimed to compare humeral head subluxation in various reference planes and to search for a correlation with retroversion, inclination, and glenoid wear. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We included 109 computed tomography scans of primary glenohumeral osteoarthritis and 97 of shoulder problems unrelated to shoulder osteoarthritis (controls); all computed tomography scans were reconstructed in the anatomic scapular plane and the glenoid hull plane that we defined. In both planes, we measured retroversion, inclination, glenohumeral offset (Walch index), and scapulohumeral offset. RESULTS: Retroversion in the scapular plane (Friedman method) was lower than that in the glenoid hull plane for controls and for arthritic shoulders. The threshold of scapulohumeral subluxation was 60% and 65% in the scapular plane and glenoid hull plane, respectively. The mean upward inclination was lower in the scapular plane (Churchill method) than in the glenoid hull plane (Maurer method). In the glenoid hull plane, 35% of type A2 glenoids showed glenohumeral offset greater than 75%, with mean retroversion of 25.6° ± 6° as compared with 7.5° ± 7.2° for the "centered" type A2 glenoids (P < .0001) and an upward inclination of -1.4° ± 8° and 6.3° ± 7° (P = .03), respectively. The correlation between retroversion and scapulohumeral offset was r = 0.64 in the glenoid hull plane and r = 0.59 in the scapular plane (P < .05). CONCLUSION: Measurement in the glenoid hull plane may be more accurate than in the scapular plane. Thus, the glenoid hull method allows for better understanding type B3 of the modified Walch classification.

BACKGROUND: Glenoid deficiency and erosion (excessive retroversion/inclination) must be corrected in reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) to avoid prosthetic notching or instability and to maximize function, range of motion, and prosthesis longevity. This study reports the results of RSA with an angled, autologous glenoid graft harvested from the humerus (angled BIO-RSA). METHODS: A trapezoidal bone graft, harvested from the humeral head and fixed with a long-post baseplate and screws, was used to compensate for residual glenoid bone loss/erosion. For simple to moderate (<25°) glenoid defects, standardized instrumentation combined with some eccentric reaming (<15°) was used to reconstruct the glenoid and obtain neutral implant alignment. For severe (>25°) and complex (multiplanar) glenoid bone defects, patient-specific grafts and guides were used after 3-dimensional planning. Patients were reviewed with minimum 2 years of follow-up. Mean follow-up was 36 months (range, 24-81 months). Preoperative and postoperative measurements of inclination and version were performed in the plane of the scapula on computed tomography images. RESULTS: The study included 54 patients (41 women, 13 men; mean 73 years old). Fifteen patients had combined vertical and horizontal glenoid bone deficiency. Among E2/E3 glenoids, inclination improved from 37° (range, 14° to 84°) to 10.2° (range -28° to 36°, P < .001). Among B2/C glenoids, retroversion improved from -21° (range, -49° to 0°) to -10.6° (-32° to 4°, P = .06). Complete radiographic incorporation of the graft occurred in 94% (51 of 54). Complications included infection in 1 and clinical aseptic baseplate loosening in 2. Mild notching occurred in 25% (13 of 51) of patients. Constant-Murley and Subjective Shoulder Value assessments increased from 31 to 68 and from 30% to 83%, respectively (P < .001). CONCLUSION: Angled BIO-RSA predictably corrects glenoid deficiency, including severe (>25°) multiplanar deformity. Graft incorporation is predictable. Advantages of using an autograftharvested in situ include bone stock augmentation, lateralization, low donor-site morbidity, low relative cost, and flexibility needed to simultaneously correct posterior and superior glenoid defects.

BACKGROUND: Chronic osteoarthritis can result in glenohumeral subluxation and loss of posterior glenoid bone. This can alter normal glenohumeral biomechanics and affect the stress placed on the glenoid implant after total shoulder arthroplasty. This study evaluated the clinical and radiographic results of an augmented all-polyethylene glenoid for the treatment of glenoid osteoarthritis in the presence of posterior glenoid bone loss and determined whether any failures or complications occurred with short-term follow-up. METHODS: During a 2-year period, 21 patients were treated with an augmented glenoid for an index diagnosis of osteoarthritis with a biconcave glenoid and average posterior glenoid bone loss of 4.7 mm. Clinical outcomes were recorded for the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons Shoulder Assessment, Simple Shoulder Test, and active motion. Radiographic analysis included glenoid version, humeral head subluxation, component seating, ingrowth, and loosening. RESULTS: Significant improvements were demonstrated for American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons Shoulder Assessment (52.3), Simple Shoulder Test (8.1), forward flexion (50°), external rotation (32°), and pain. Radiographic improvements were found for glenoid version (12°), humeral scapular alignment (23%), and humeral glenoid alignment (8%). Central peg ingrowth was demonstrated in all patients, and complete component seating was achieved in 19 patients. No complications were encountered, and no clinical or radiographic failures were identified. CONCLUSION: Augmented polyethylene glenoid components demonstrated improved clinical outcome, without implant failure or complications, during short-term follow-up.

BACKGROUND: Posterior glenoid bone loss in primary glenohumeral osteoarthritis (GHOA) presents a challenge when considering replacement surgery. Results with anatomic shoulder arthroplasty are unpredictable due to posterior humeral instability and limited bone stock for glenoid component fixation. OBJECTIVES: To describe and evaluate the results of a "shaped" humeral head autograft with reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) for the treatment of primary GHOA with significant posterior glenoid bone loss and an intact, functional rotator cuff. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed 29 "shaped" humeral head autografts with RSA for the treatment of GHOA with B2 (n = 16), B3 (n = 10), or C (n = 3) glenoid morphology based on the Walch classification system. Average glenoid retroversion was 32.3°. Humeral head autografts were "shaped" to match each patient's individual glenoid morphology. Functional outcome scores, range of motion, strength, and radiographic outcomes were evaluated. RESULTS: At average follow-up of 34.6 months (range 23.7-88.9 months), significant improvements were seen in all functional outcome scores, ranges of motion, and strength (p <0.01). No recurrent instability or glenoid fixation failure occurred. Two complications (1 superficial and 1 deep infection) in 2 patients were identified. All autografts incorporated without radiographic evidence of loosening. Scapular notching was observed in 8 shoulders. No negative correlations were identified with glenoid morphology. CONCLUSIONS: "Shaped" humeral head autograft with RSA for the treatment of primary GHOA with significant posterior glenoid bone loss is associated with excellent clinical and radiographic outcomes and a low complication profile at short- to mid-term follow-up.
