Inestabilidad anterior de hombro con lesión de Hill-Sachs on-track. ¿Bankart o Bankart-remplissage? / Anterior shoulder instability with Hill-Sachs on-track. Bankart or Bankart-remplissage?

Resumen: Introducción: en pacientes con inestabilidad glenohumeral (GH) anterior con defecto de Hill-Sachs (HS) off-track o enganchante, Bankart-remplissage (B + R) reduce tasa de recurrencia en comparación a Bankart aislado (B). Hay controversia si tasa de recurrencia también disminuye en pacientes con defecto de HS on-track o no enganchantes. Objetivo: comparar la tasa de recurrencia y evolución clínica entre la cirugía de B versus B-R en pacientes operados por inestabilidad glenohumeral anterior con defecto de Hill-Sachs on-track. Material y métodos: estudio de cohorte, no randomizado, retrospectivo y unicéntrico, en pacientes operados por inestabilidad glenohumeral anterior, entre Enero 2010 y Diciembre de 2018. Se incluyen sólo pacientes con defecto de Hill-Sachs on-track. Fueron comparados pacientes operados con cirugía de B versus B + R. Se consigna recurrencia, complicación, reoperación y sensación de inestabilidad. Además, se realizan y comparan puntajes de EVA, SSV, WOSI y qDASH. Resultados: de los 105 pacientes que cumplieron criterios de inclusión, 78 (74.3%) realizaron seguimiento completo (52 B y 26 B + R, 4.3 años mediana de seguimiento). Hubo mayor tasa de recurrencia en grupo B en comparación a B + R, siendo esta diferencia no significativa (17.3% versus 7.7%, p = 0.21). No hubo diferencia significativa en dolor residual, sensación de inestabilidad residual, complicaciones o puntajes de escala EVA, qDASH, SSV ni WOSI. En análisis por subgrupo, pacientes con deportes de contacto, B tienen mayor tasa de recurrencia (24.1% versus 0%, p = 0.08) y complicaciones comparadas con B + R (41.4% versus 18.2%, p = 0.16), siendo estas diferencias no significativas. Conclusión: no hubo diferencias significativas en tasa de recurrencia y evolución funcional entre cirugía de Bankart aislado o Bankart-remplissage para inestabilidad glenohumeral anterior asociada a defecto de Hill-Sachs on-track. Estudios comparativos, prospectivos deben realizarse para establecer recomendaciones definitivas.

Abstract: Introduction: in patients with anterior glenohumeral (GH) instability together with an off-track or engaging Hill-Sachs (HS) defect, Bankart-remplissage (B-R) surgery reduces the recurrence rate when compared to Bankart (B) surgery alone. There is controversy regarding whether the recurrence rate also decreases in patients with on-track or non-engaging Hill-Sachs defects. Objective: to compare the recurrence rate and clinical evolution of patients with anterior glenohumeral instability with 'on-track' Hill-Sachs defect treated with either B or B-R surgery. Material and methods: non-randomized, retrospective, single-center cohort study of patients with anterior glenohumeral instability and on-track Hill-Sachs defect, operated between January 2010 and December 2018. Patients operated with B versus B-R were compared. Recurrence, complications and re-operation were recorded. In addition, VAS, SSV, WOSI and qDASH scores were obtained and compared in both groups. Results: of the 105 patients who met the inclusion criteria, 78 (74.3%) patients had a complete follow-up (52 B and 26 B-R, 4.3 years median follow-up). There was a higher recurrence rate in group B compared to B-R, with this difference not reaching statistical significance (17.3% vs 7.7%, p = 0.21). There were no significant differences in residual pain, feeling of instability, complications or VAS, qDASH, SSV or WOSI scores between both groups. In the subgroup analysis, patients who practiced contact sports and were operated with B showed higher recurrence rates (24.1% vs 0%, p = 0.08) and complications (41.4% vs 18.2%, p = 0.16) when compared to B + R, although these differences were not significant. Conclusion: there were no significant differences in recurrence rates and functional evolution between patients with anterior glenohumeral instability operated with B or B-R surgery. Comparative, prospective studies should be performed to establish definitive recommendations.

Mid-term effectiveness of arthroscopic Bankart repair in treatment of recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation / 中国修复重建外科杂志

OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the mid-term effectiveness of arthroscopic Bankart repair for recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation.@*METHODS@#The clinical data of 107 patients with recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation who met the inclusion criteria between January 2017 and June 2021 was retrospectively analyzed, and all patients underwent arthroscopic Bankart repair. There were 88 males and 19 females. The age of the primary dislocation ranged from 13 to 48 years (mean, 23.3 years). The number of preoperative dislocations was 2-160 times (median, 7 times). The duration of preoperative instability was 0.2-240.0 months (median, 36.0 months). The mean age at operation was 28.2 years (range, 16-61 years). There were 43 cases of left shoulder and 64 cases of right shoulder. The proportion of glenoid defects in 63 patients was 1.7%-16.1% (mean, 8.1%). MRI showed that none of the patients had rotator cuff tears or shoulder stiffness. The CT three-dimensional reconstruction was performed at 1 day after operation to evaluate the distribution of implanted anchors and the occurrence of glenoid split fracture and whether there were nails pullout at the implant site. The postoperative complications were observed, and the pain and function of the shoulder were evaluated by visual analogue scale (VAS) score, Rowe score, Constant-Murley score, and American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) score. The recurrence of instability, the results of apprehension test, the number of patients who returned to preoperative sports level, and the satisfaction rate of patients were recorded.@*RESULTS@#All patients were successfully operated and were followed up 20-73 months (mean, 41.5 months). All incisions healed by first intention. The CT three-dimensional reconstruction at 1 day after operation showed that the anchors were located at the 2 : 00-5 : 30 positions of the glenoid, and there was no glenoid split fracture or nails pullout at the implant site. At last follow-up, VAS score was significantly lower than that before operation, and Rowe score, Constant-Murley score, and ASES score were significantly higher than those before operation ( P<0.05). Seven patients (6.5%) had recurrence of anterior shoulder dislocation at 23-55 months (mean, 39.9 months) after operation, including 6 cases of dislocation and 1 case of subluxation. At last follow-up, 51 patients (47.7%) returned to preoperative sports level, and 11 patients (10.3%) had a positive apprehension test. The patients' satisfaction rate was 90.7% (97/107). Among the 10 patients who were not satisfied with the surgical effectiveness, 7 patients had postoperative recurrence of instability, and 3 patients felt that they did not return to preoperative sports level.@*CONCLUSION@#Arthroscopic Bankart repair has good mid-term effectiveness in patients with recurrent anterior shoulder dislocations, minimal or no glenohumeral bone defects and low sports need.

Clinical application of Fastpass Scorpion suture passer for arthroscopic Bankart repair / 中国修复重建外科杂志

OBJECTIVE@#To explore the effectiveness and advantages of using Fastpass Scorpion suture passer to stitch the inferior capsulolabral complex in arthroscopic Bankart repair compared with traditional arthroscopic suture shuttle.@*METHODS@#The clinical data of 41 patients with Bankart lesion, who met the selection criteria and were admitted between August 2019 and October 2021, was retrospectively analyzed. Under arthroscopy, the inferior capsulolabral complex was stitched with Fastpass Scorpion suture passer in 27 patients (FS group) and with arthroscopic suture shuttle in 14 patients (ASS group). There was no significant difference between the two groups ( P>0.05) in gender, age, injured side, frequency of shoulder dislocation, time from first dislocation to operation, and preoperative Rowe score of shoulder. Taking successful suture and pull-tightening as the criteria for completion of repair, the number of patients that were repaired at 5∶00 to 6∶00 (<6:00) and 6∶00 to 7∶00 positions of the glenoid in the two groups was compared. The operation time, and the difference of Rowe shoulder score betwee pre- and post-operation, the occurrence of shoulder joint dislocation, the results of apprehension test, and the constituent ratio of recovery to the pre-injury movement level between the two groups at 1 year after operation.@*RESULTS@#Both groups completed the repair at 5∶00 to 6∶00 (<6∶00), and the constituent ratio of patients completed at 6∶00 to 7∶00 was significantly greater in the FS group than in the ASS group ( P<0.05). The operation time was significantly shorter in the FS group than in the ASS group ( P<0.05). All incisions in the two groups healed by first intention. All patients were followed up 12-36 months (mean, 19.1 months). No anchor displacement or neurovascular injury occurred during follow-up. Rowe score of shoulder in the two groups significantly improved at 1 year after operation than preoperative scores ( P<0.05), and there was no significant difference in the difference of Rowe shoulder score between pre- and post-operation between the two groups ( P>0.05). At 1 year after operation, no re-dislocation occurred, and there was no significant difference in the apprehension test and the constituent ratio of recovery to the pre-injury movement level between the two groups ( P>0.05).@*CONCLUSION@#Compared with the arthroscopic suture shuttle, using Fastpass Scorpion suture passer to stitch the inferior capsulolabral complex in arthroscopic Bankart repair is more convenient, saves operation time, and has good effectiveness.

Lesión de Bony Bankart: conceptos fundamentales para su comprensión y tratamiento / Bony Bankart lesions: fundamental concepts to understand and treat them

Las lesiones óseas en el borde anterior del anillo glenoideo secundarias a un episodio de inestabilidad anterior del hombro cada vez son más reportadas. Conocidas como lesión de Bony Bankart, su presencia genera una pérdida de la estabilidad estática glenohumeral que provoca un aumento del riesgo de un nuevo evento de luxación. Por ende, resulta fundamental que los cirujanos ortopédicos comprendan y diagnostiquen estas lesiones de forma correcta y oportuna para evaluar la necesidad de restaurar la superficie articular glenoidea. El objetivo de esta revisión narrativa es otorgar los conceptos más importantes de la lesión ósea de Bankart para comprender y enfrentar de forma adecuada esta lesión.

Bony lesions of the anterior glenoid rim secondary to an episode of anterior instability of the shoulder are increasingly being reported. Known as a bony Bankart lesion, its presence generates a loss of static glenohumeral stability that causes an increased risk of a new dislocation event. Therefore, it is essential that orthopedic surgeons correctly and accurately diagnose these injuries to assess the need to restore the glenoid articular surface. The purpose of the present narrative review is to provide the essential concepts of the bony Bankart lesion to properly understand and deal with this type of injury.

Prognostic Factors of the Latarjet Procedure / Fatores prognósticos da cirurgia de Latarjet

Abstract Objective To investigate the factors that influence the functional results of patients submitted to the Latarjet procedure. Methods Evaluation of 26 patients submitted to surgical treatment following the Latarjet technique due to traumatic recurrent anterior dislocation of the glenohumeral joint, with glenoidal bone loss greater than 20% and/or off-track injury. The minimum follow-up time was of 12 months. The Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), The Western Ontario Shoulder Instability Index (WOSI), and the Subjective Shoulder Value (SSV) scales, as well as objective data from the participants, were evaluated. Results Most patients (84.62%) did not present recurrence of the dislocation, and 92.31% were satisfied. Regarding the functional analysis, the physical component score (PCS) and the mental component score (MCS) found were within the mean quality of life of the population. The physical symptoms, according to the WOSI, presented the best percentage (8.5%), while the worst result was observed regarding lifestyle (20%). On the VAS, pain was classified as moderate (3/10) by 15.38% of the patients (4/26). In relation to sports, patients who practice sports showed improvement in SSV parameters, which had an inverse relationship with the number of relapses. It was also observed that the shorter the time between the first dislocation and the surgery, the greater the patient's satisfaction. Conclusion Early indication of surgical treatment of anterior glenohumeral instability may provide better subjective functional results to the patient.

Resumo Objetivo Investigar os fatores que influenciam os resultados funcionais dos pacientes submetidos ao procedimento de Latarjet. Métodos Avaliação de 26 pacientes submetidos ao tratamento cirúrgico, seguindo a técnica de Latarjet, devido a luxação anterior recidivante traumática da articulação glenoumeral, com perda óssea glenoidal maior do que 20% e/ou lesão off-track. O tempo mínimo de seguimento foi de doze meses. Foram avaliadas as seguintes escalas: Escala Visual Analógica (EVA), The Western Ontario Shoulder Instability Index (WOSI), e Subjective Shoulder Value (SSV), além dos dados objetivos dos participantes. Resultados A maioria dos pacientes (84,62%) não apresentou recidiva de luxação, e 92,31% ficaram satisfeitos. Em relação à análise funcional, a pontuação do componente físico (PCF) e a pontuação do compenente mental (PCM) encontradas estavam dentro da média de qualidade de vida da população. Os sintomas físicos, pela escala WOSI, apresentaram a melhor porcentagem (8,5%), ao passo que o pior resultado foi observado com relação ao estilo de vida (20%). Na EVA, a dor foi classificada como moderada (3/10) por 15,38% dos pacientes (4/26). Em relação aos esportes, os pacientes que praticavam alguma atividade esportiva apresentaram melhora nos parâmetros da escala SSV, que tiveram relação inversa com o número de recidivas. Observou-se ainda que, quanto menor foi o tempo entre a primeira luxação e a realização da cirurgia, maior foi a satisfação do paciente. Conclusão A indicação precoce do tratamento cirúrgico da instabilidade anterior glenoumeral pode proporcionar melhores resultados funcionais subjetivos ao paciente.

Clinical Validation of the Glenoid Track Concept in Anterior Glenohumeral Instability / Validação clínica do conceito de glenoid track na instabilidade glenoumeral anterior

Abstract Objective To evaluate the correlation of the glenoid track and glenoidal bone loss with the recurrence dislocation rate and the Rowe score. Methods Retrospective study that assessed the glenoid track and glenoidal bone loss through preoperative magnetic resonance imaging. Patients undergoing primary arthroscopic repair of anterior Bankart were included. Patients with glenoidal bone loss greater than 21%, rotator cuff tear, scapular waist fracture, and posterior or multidirectional instability were not included. Rowe score were the primary outcome, and the recurrence rate was the secondary outcome. Results One hundred and two patients were included. Postoperative recurrent instability was reported by 8 patients (7.8%). Four patients (50%) in the group with recurrence presented glenoidal bone loss greater than 13.5% against 24 (25.5%) in the group without recurrence (p= 0.210), with a negative predictive value of 94.6%. Three patients (37.5%) in the recurrence group were considered off-track, against 13 (13.8%) in the group without recurrence (p= 0.109), with a negative predictive value of 94.2%. Patients with absolute glenoid track value ≤ 1.5 mm had worse results in relation to the recurrence group, with 6 patients (75%) presenting recurrence (p= 0.003). Conclusion Off-track injury and glenoidal bone loss greater than the subcritical are not related to the recurrence rate and Rowe score, despite the high negative predictive value. The cut of the absolute value of the glenoid track at 1.5 mm had a significant relationship with the recurrence rate.

Resumo Objetivo Avaliar a correlação do conceito de glenoid track e da perda óssea da cavidade glenoidal com a taxa de recidiva de luxação e pontuação na escala de Rowe. Métodos Estudo retrospectivo que aferiu o glenoid track e a perda óssea da cavidade glenoidal por ressonância magnética pré-operatória. Foram incluídos pacientes submetidos a reparo artroscópico primário de Bankart anterior. Não foram incluídos pacientes com perda óssea da cavidade glenoidal maior que 21%, rotura do manguito rotador, fratura de cintura escapular, instabilidade posterior ou multidirecional. A pontuação pela escala de Rowe foi o desfecho primário, e a taxa de recidiva foi o desfecho secundário. Resultados Cento e dois pacientes foram incluídos. A recidiva foi relatada por 8 pacientes (7,8%). Quatro pacientes (50%) do grupo com recidiva apresentaram lesão da cavidade glenoidal maior que 13,5% contra 24 (25,5%) do grupo sem recidiva (p= 0,210), com valor preditivo negativo de 94,6%. Três pacientes (37,5%) do grupo com recidiva foram considerados off-track, contra 13 (13,8%) do grupo sem recidiva (p= 0,109), com valor preditivo negativo de 94,2%. Pacientes com valor absoluto do glenoid track menor ou igual a 1,5 mm tiveram piores resultados em relação ao grupo com recidiva, sendo que 6 pacientes (75%) apresentaram recidiva (p= 0,003). Conclusão Lesão off-track e perda óssea da cavidade glenoidal maior que a subcrítica não apresentam relação significativa com a taxa de recidiva e a pontuação de Rowe, apesar do alto valor preditivo negativo. O corte do valor absoluto do glenoid track em 1,5 mm apresentou relação significativa com a taxa de recidiva.

An axillary approach for open reduction and internal fixation to treat anterior glenoid fracture: an anatomical and clinical study / 中华骨科杂志

Objective:To investigate the clinical effect and safety of reduction and fixation for the anterior glenoid fracture through an axillary approach.Methods:Two autopsy specimens (a total of 4 shoulder joints) were used to simulate the surgery of open reduction and internal fixation to treat anterior glenoid fracture through an axillary approach. Specimens were placed in the lateral decubitus position. An incision was made in the posterior axillary line to expose the lateral side of the scapula through the interval ahead of the latissimus dorsi muscle. Attended to the separation and protection of the axillary nerve, posterior humerus artery, thoracic dorsal nerve, and scapular artery. The surgical area of the axillary approach was divided into the upper "quadrilateral area" and the lower "trilateral area", which exposed the anteroinferior glenoid, neck, and the full length of lateral border of the scapula. Thirteen cases (7 males and 6 females) were involved in this study, all patients were diagnosed with anterior glenoid fracture and treated by open reduction and internal fixation through the axillary approach between April 2018 and December 2020. Constant-Murley score and Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH) were used to evaluate the clinical efficacy.Results:Thirteen patients were enrolled for final analysis, which included 12 right cases and 1 left case. The average age was 50.38±13.74 years (range 24-67 years). All 13 patients were classified as Ideberg type Ia fracture. Anatomical buttress plates were used in 5 cases, cannulated screws combined with metacarpal plates in 7 cases, and distal radius plate in 1 case. The average length of follow-up was 13.00±5.97 months (range 6-26 months). No delayed union or malunion in all cases at the last follow-up visits. The average of Constant-Murley score was 62.46±10.26 points (range 45-83) and the DASH score was 27.56±9.76 points (range 14.14-43.33) at the three months follow up visits. At 6 months postoperatively, the Constant-Murley score was 80.85±8.32 points (range 65 to 90) and the DASH score was 11.47±8.56 points (range 0 to 35.00). Constant-Murley score at the final patient's follow-up visit was 84.54±8.95 points (range 70-95), and the DASH score was 10.94±8.67 points (range 1.67 to 33.33 points). The joint function gradually recovered with time. The functional scores at 3 months, 6 months after surgery, and final follow-up visit had significant differences ( P<0.05). Conclusion:The axillary approach is a safe and feasible approach for the treatment of the anterior glenoid fracture. This approach exposes the anteroinferior glenoid and the lateral border of the scapula, which reduces rotator-cuff injury and achieves anatomic reduction and strong fixation of the fracture. The axillary approach surgery also allows early functional physiotherapy after surgery.

Posterior axillary approach for treatment of some scapular fractures / 中华创伤骨科杂志

Objective:To investigate the efficacy of the posterior axillary approach in the treatment of some scapular fractures.Methods:Retrospectively analyzed were the data of 41 patients with scapular fracture who had been treated through the posterior axillary approach at Department of Traumatology, The Second Hospital of Jilin University from April 2018 to July 2021. There were 32 males and 9 females, aged from 24 to 83 years (average, 52.4 years). Of them, 7 were complicated with multiple injuries, 16 with other fractures, and 4 with brachial plexus injury. Recorded were length of surgical incision, intraoperative blood loss, operation time, and range of shoulder motion, Disability of Arm Shoulder and Hand (DASH) score, Constant shoulder score and postoperative complications at the last follow-up.Results:In this cohort, length of incision ranged from 7 to 12 cm (average, 9.3 cm), intraoperative blood loss from 80 to 150 mL (average, 110.5 mL), exposure time of the posterior axillary approach from 5 to 10 min (average, 7.9 min), and fracture operation time from 85 to 140 min (average, 110.8 min). The 41 patients were followed up for 6 to 36 months (mean, 14.3 months) after surgery. At the last follow-up, the average ranges of shoulder motion were 177° (from 150° to 180°) in flexion, 175° (from 140° to 180°) in abduction and 47° (from 30° to 50°) in extension, the average DASH score was 36.4 points (from 34 to 46 points), and the average Constant score 96.0 points (from 84 to 100 points). There were no complications like loss of fracture reduction, loosening or breakage of plate or screw during follow-up. Incision healing was delayed in 2 patients and mild heterotopic ossification occurred in 2 patients.Conclusion:As a new surgical approach for some scapular fractures, the posterior axillary approach allows internal fixation of the fractures of the scapular glenoid, neck and body under direct vision, leading to good-looking postoperative wound and reliable curative effects.

Arthroscopic treatment of Hill-Sachs combined with Bankart lesions in anterior dislocation of shoulder joint / 中华创伤骨科杂志

Diagnosis and treatment of Hill-Sachs combined with Bankart lesions in anterior dislocation of shoulder joint is a major clinical challenge in orthopedics, because it likely leads to a high recurrence rate of redislocation of shoulder joint, a serious damage to the shoulder joint, recurrent shoulder injury and dramatically disturbed quality of daily life. Although various means of clinical diagnosis and treatment are available for the lesions, they all have their own advantages and disadvantages. However, arthroscopic surgery of shoulder has achieved superior curative effects, gradually becoming the first choice and a mainstream treatment. This article reviews the current research progress in pathogenesis, diagnosis and arthroscopic treatment of Hill-Sachs combined with Bankart lesions in anterior dislocation of shoulder joint.

Functional Outcome of Open Latarjet Procedure in NonAthletic Middle-Aged Patie

@#Introduction: The movement and steadiness of the shoulder joint is due to both the dynamic and static stabilisers. Recurrent anterior shoulder instability is common due to the Bankart lesion or the Hill Sachs lesion. The bone loss and soft tissue failure due to these lesions causing instability is well compensated by Latarjet procedure which acts by triple blocking effect of the bone graft, the sling effect of the conjoint tendon of subscapularis and the ligament of the coracoacromial ligament stump. Materials and methods: Middle-aged patients with recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation and a mid-range instability on clinical assessment with an isolated glenoid bone loss of 20% or Bankart lesion with engaging Hill Sachs lesion were selected for the study. The surgical procedure included a subscapularis split to expose the glenoid. The coracoid graft harvested was prefixed with Kirschner wires and placed flush over the glenoid ensuring no medial or lateral overhang and fixed with 4.0mm cancellous screws with the washer. The functional outcome was measured with the ROWE score and ASES score and the movements were evaluated. Results: A total of 24 patients fulfilled the inclusion criteria. Post-operatively at final follow-up, the mean ROWE score was 97.08 ±8.45 and the mean ASES score was 94.4±9.10. One patient had screw breakage as a complication and another had restriction of movement which was managed with physiotherapy. Conclusion: Open Latarjet is an effective procedure for recurrent anterior shoulder instability in non-athletic middleaged patients as a excellent functional outcome was achieved with this technique. We therefore recommend open Latarjet as an alternative to arthroscopic treatment in developing countries where patient affordability and the availability of the resources are the issues.

Latarjet procedure for failed arthroscopic Bankart repair: a case report

Arthroscopic Bankart Repair (ABR) provides acceptable results for recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation. However, recent studies have shown recurrent rates of 4-19% or even up to 35-40% in patients aged <25 years, and the results tend to get worse after long-term follow-up. The Latarjet procedure can improve anterior stability by multiple mechanisms, not only can the Bankart lesion be repaired and provide stability, but the transfer of the coracoid process extends the bony articular arc of the glenoid, and the addition of the conjoint tendon may provide dynamic stability as well. The Latarjet procedure for correcting recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation led to good and excellent results in 82.7% of the cases. The Latarjet procedure had the lowest re-dislocation rate, which was significantly lower than the arthroscopic Bankart repair. Latarjet procedure is effective in terms of restoring anteroinferior glenohumeral stability and good option for failed arthroscopic Bankart repair. Recurrence rates of instability are acceptable and re-operation rates were low.

Arthroscopic repair of Bankart lesion with bioabsorbable suture anchors / 中国骨伤

OBJECTIVE@#To evaluate early clinical effects of bioabsorbable suture anchors for the treatment of Bankart lesion.@*METHODS@#Total 23 patients with the Bankart lesion were treated with arthroscopic repair using bioabsorbable suture anchors from January 2010 to June 2017. There were 20 males and 3 females, with an average age of (23.4±3.9) years old (ranged, 19 to 34 years old). Fourteen patients had injuries on the right shoulder joint and 9 patients had the injuries on the left side. The mechanism of primary dislocation included 17 cases of training, 5 cases of sports injury and 1 case of falling down. The mean interval time from injury to surgery was(10.9±5.8) months (ranged, 3 to 36 months). The Bankart lesion was repaired by bio-cortical suture anchors. The Rowes rating system for Bankart repair was used to evaluate therapeutic effects.@*RESULTS@#All 23 patients were followed up, with a mean duration of(24.5±3.7) months(ranged, 18 to 39 months). At the latest follow up, there was no recurrent dislocation occurred, and all patients had returned to sports and work. The Rowes rating system for Bankart repair was 53.91±11.67 pre-operationally and 91.74±12.30 post operationally, respectively (@*CONCLUSION@#Applying bio-cortical bone suture anchors for the Bankart lesion is a reliable, efficient and cost effective treatment, which is also suitable for the revision of the Bankart lesion.

Modified arthroscopic anterior approach for the treatment of shoulder Bankart lesion / 中国骨伤

OBJECTIVE@#To explore the effects of single anterior approach under shoulder arthroscopy in the treatment of Bankart injury, and to provide a scheme to overcome the difficulties and simplify the operation process.@*METHODS@#From July 2016 to January 2019, 62 patients with recurrent dislocation caused by Bankart leision were treated under shoulder arthroscopy, including 50 males and 12 females, ranging in age from 19 to 44 years old with an average age of (26.5±6.1) years old. There were 25 cases of left shoulder and 37 cases of right shoulder. The patients were divided into two groups according to the operation mode, 35 patients in the front modified single approach group (experimental group) and 27 patients in the traditional double approachgroup (control group). The results of the operation were evaluated by assessing the preoperative and postoperative ASES scores of the shoulder joint, and the time of the approach establishment and the overall operation process was recorded to evaluate whether the operation time of the experimental group was shortened.@*RESULTS@#Three patients were lost during the follow-up after operation, and except for one case of re-dislocation, all patients achieved satisfactory results without neurovascular injury and other complications. The patients were followed up before operation and 3, 6, 12 months after operation, and the ASES scores were significantly enhanced at the latest follow-up compared with those of before operation. The time of establishing surgical approach in the experimental group was (7.5±1.5) minutes, which was shorter than that of control group (13.7±1.2) minutes.@*CONCLUSION@#The improved technique of single-channel anterior approach has the advantages of reducing the surgical incision and shortening the operationtime while ensuring the quality of the operation, which is worthy of popularization and application.

Abstract The basis of the forensic evaluation of an individual is to establish the relationship of causality between the story that has been told by the patient and the documented findings. The study of injury biomechanics is a tool that helps to clarify said concordance, since it involves the trauma mechanisms that are implied in the genesis of the different lesions. This article consists of a bibliographical revision and critique of the current literature about the etiopathogenesis of the shoulder lesions, since they are frequent in the work place and can generate sequels.

Tratamiento de la inestabilidad anterior de hombro con remplissage para lesiones de Hill-Sachs y lesión de Bankart comparado con lesiones de Bankart pura / Treatment of anterior shoulder instability with remplissage for Hill-Sachs injuries and Bankart injury compared to pure Bankart injuries

Resumen: Introducción: Las luxaciones anteriores de hombro ocurren en > 90% de las inestabilidades de hombro, la principal causa es traumática, describiéndose dos principales lesiones en esta patología: la lesión de Bankart y la de Hill-Sachs, existiendo una tasa de recurrencia similar en la reparación quirúrgica abierta y con ventaja de la cirugía artroscópica de realizar incisiones pequeñas, menor pérdida del rango de movimiento, menor riesgo de daño del músculo subescapular, retorno más rápido a las actividades diarias y mayor satisfacción de los pacientes. Objetivo: Valorar la funcionabilidad, movilidad y estabilidad postquirúrgica del hombro de los pacientes sometidos a tratamiento con dos técnicas artroscópicas: reparación de lesión de Bankart pura versus reparación Bankart + remplissage. Material y métodos: Se revisaron expedientes clínicos, se valoraron pacientes con inestabilidad de hombro y con lesiones de Hill-Sachs y Bankart; con un total de 21 pacientes postquirúrgicos se realizaron exploraciones físicas para valoración de los arcos de movimiento y aplicación de escalas funcionales de Rowe y Western Ontario Shoulder Instability Index, con el fin de medir la estabilidad postquirúrgica. Resultados: No hubo recurrencia de luxación con ninguna de las dos técnicas, se observó mayor satisfacción en el grupo de remplissage; sin embargo, la limitación del arco de movimiento es mayor. Conclusión: Ambas técnicas artroscópicas fueron capaces de restaurar la función, disminuir el dolor y satisfacer en su mayoría a los pacientes de nuestra serie de casos en el seguimiento a corto y mediano plazo.

Abstract: Background: Anterior shoulder dislocation occurs in more than 90% of the time, the main cause is traumatic, describing two main lesions in this pathology: Bankart's and Hill-Sachs's injury, the recurrence rate is not similar in open repair and with a possible advantage of arthroscopic surgery with less loss of movement range, lower risk of subscapular muscle damage, faster return to daily activities and increased patient satisfaction. Objective: Assessing functionality, mobility and stability of the shoulder in patients treated: arthroscopic Bankart repair versus arthroscopic Bankart repair + remplissage. Methods: Clinical records of patients with shoulder instability were reviewed Hill-Sachs and Bankart lesions were doumented; 21 post-surgical patients and were physically examined to evaluate the range of motion, Rowe functional scales and Western Ontario Shoulder Instability Index were used. 13 months of follow up as an average. Results: There was no recurrence of dislocation with either technique, greater satisfaction was observed in the remplissage group; however, the limitation of the motion arc is greater. Conclusion: Both groups reduce instability, control pain and mostly satisfy patients in the 13-month follow-up.

Clinical and Image Outcomes of the Hill-Sachs Injury Approach by the Remplissage Technique on the Anterior Shoulder Instability / Resultados clínicos e de imagem da abordagem da lesão de Hill-Sachs pela técnica de remplissage na instabilidade anterior do ombro

Abstract Objective To evaluate the functional outcome of the remplissage technique, the healing of the capsulotenodesis of the infraspinatus tendon in Hill-Sachs lesion, and the degree of fatty infiltration of the infraspinatus muscle and its postoperative strength. Methods Twenty-five patients with recurrent anterior dislocation of the shoulder and Hill-Sachs lesion with a Hardy index > 20% who underwent the remplissage arthroscopic technique were evaluated with a minimum follow-up of 1 year. Patients underwent a clinical evaluation (Carter-Rowe and Walch-Duplay functional scores, measurement of range of motion and strength) and a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) exam on the operated shoulder. Results Eighty-eight percent and 92% of the patients had good or excellent scores in the functional assessments of the Carter-Rowe andWalch-Duplay scores, respectively. Amean difference of - 1 kg in the strength of the operated limbwas observedwhen compared with the contralateral limb (p < 0.001), as well as amean difference of 10° in external rotation 1 and 2 (p < 0.001), also compared with the contralateral side. All of the patients who underwent an MRI exam presented high-grade filling of the Hill-Sachs lesion by capsulotenodesis, as well as absence of or minimal fatty infiltration in the infraspinatus muscle. Conclusion The remplissage technique had good/excellent functional score results, despite the discrete, albeit statistically significant, loss of strength and of external rotation amplitude. Successful capsulotenodesis healing and filling of the Hill-Sachs defect were demonstrated.

Resumo Objetivos Avaliar o resultado funcional da técnica de remplissage, a cicatrização da capsulotenodese do tendão infraespinal no defeito de Hill-Sachs, o grau de infiltração gordurosa do músculo infraespinal e sua força de rotação lateral no pós-operatório. Método Foram avaliados 25 pacientes comluxação anterior recidivante do ombro e lesão de Hill-Sachs comíndice de Hardy maior do que 20%, submetidos à técnica artroscópica de remplissage com seguimento mínimo de um ano. Os pacientes foram submetidos a avaliação clínica (escores funcionais deCarter-RoweeWalch-Duplay,medição de amplitude de movimento e força) e exame de ressonância magnética no ombro operado. Resultados Dos pacientes, 88% e 92% apresentaram resultados bons ou excelentes nas avaliações funcionais pelos escores de Carter-Rowe e Walch-Duplay, respectivamente. Identificou-se diferença média de 1 kg a menos de força do membro operado em relação ao contralateral (p < 0,001) e diferença média de 10° em rotação lateral 1 e 2 (p < 0,001), novamente com o uso como referência do lado contralateral. Todos os pacientes submetidos a ressonância magnética apresentaram preenchimento de alto grau da lesão de Hill-Sachs pela capsulotenodese, assim como ausência ou mínima infiltração gordurosa no músculo infraespinal. Conclusão A técnica de remplissage apresentou resultados bons/excelentes nos escores funcionais, apesar da perda discreta de força e amplitude de rotação lateral com significância estatística. Foram observados resultados excelentes quanto à cicatrização da capsulotenodese e ao preenchimento do defeito de Hill-Sachs.

Arthroscopic treatment of irreducible hip posterior dislocation caused by acetabular labrum bony Bankart lesions / 中国修复重建外科杂志

Objective: To investigate the effectiveness of arthroscopic treatment for irreducible hip posterior dislocation caused by acetabular labrum bony Bankart lesions. Methods: Between February 2008 and August 2016, 11 patients with irreducible hip posterior dislocation caused by acetabular labrum bony Bankart lesions, were treated with arthroscopic reduction and fixation of bony Bankart lesions. There were 7 males and 4 females, with an average age of 23.7 years (mean, 15-36 years). The injury was caused by traffic accident in 8 cases and falling from height in 3 cases. The interval between hip dislocation and the first manual reduction was 2-8 hours (mean, 5.3 hours) and between the first manual reduction and arthroscopic surgery was 6-31 days (mean, 12.8 days). The preoperative visual analogue scale (VAS) was 5.2±0.9, the modified Harris score was 32±8, and the Western Ontario and McMaster University Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) was 30±5. Results: The operative time was 90-150 minutes (mean, 120.9 minutes), with no hip arthroscopic surgery related complications. All incisions healed by first intention. All patients were followed up 26-68 months (mean, 42.7 months). Postoperative X-ray films showed that all hip joints were reduction; CT showed that the reduction of posterior acetabular wall fracture was satisfactory. And all fractures healed at last follow-up with no avascular necrosis of the femoral head or osteoarthritis. At last follow-up, the VAS score was 0.5±0.5, the modified Harris score was 94±5, and the WOMAC score was 95±4. There were significant differences in those indexes between pre- and post-operation ( P<0.05). Conclusion: The irreducible hip posterior dislocation caused by acetabular labrum bony Bankart lesions is rare. Arthroscopic therapy has the advantages of less trauma, quick recovery, and less complications.

Clinical observation of arthroscope treating traumatic omarthralgia with Bankart injury / 中国医学装备

Objective:To investigate the clinical effect of arthroscope treating traumatic omarthralgia with Bankart injury.Methods: 69 patients with traumatic omarthralgia with Bankart injury were divided into observation group (38 cases) and control group (31cases). And patients of observation group received the treatment of arthroscopic while those of control group received routine treatment. And then the shoulder joint score and visual analogue scale (VAS) of the two groups at post-treatment 1 week and post-treatment 1 month were compared, respectively.Results: At post-treatment 1 week, series of shoulder joint scores, included of pain, functional activity, activity degree of shoulder joint, muscle force and total score, of observation group were significantly higher than those of control group, respectively (t=5.27,t=6.02,t=6.81,t=3.37,t=8.22,P<0.05). While at post-treatment 1 month, all of above shoulder joint scores between the two groups were no significantly (t=1.02,t=1.73,t=2.85,t=2.46,t=4.01,P>0.05), respectively. And for all of these scores, post-treatment 1 month were higher than that of post-treatment 1 week. Besides, for both of the two groups, the VASs of post-treatment were lower than that of pre-treatment, and the VAS of observation group was significantly lower than that of control group(t=6.88,P<0.05).Conclusions: In the process of arthroscopic treating traumatic omarthralgia with Bankart injury, the recovery of shoulder joint function and the alleviating of painful of patients achieve better effect, and post-operative recovery is faster. Therefore, the therapy method is worthy in the popularization and application of clinical practice.

Arthroscopic Treatment of a Type II Superior Labrum Anterior to Posterior (SLAP) Lesion Combined with a Bankart Lesion: Comparative Study between Debridement and Repair of Type II SLAP Lesion by the Status of Lesion

BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study is to evaluate results of superior labrum anterior to posterior (SLAP) repairs and debridement of type II SLAP lesions combined with Bankart lesions. METHODS: Between 2010 and 2014, total 58 patients with anterior shoulder instability due to a Bankart lesion combined with a type II SLAP lesion were enrolled. Patients were divided into two groups: group C consisted of 30 patients, each with a communicated Bankart and type II SLAP lesion and group NC consisted of 28 patients, each with a non-communicated Bankart and type II SLAP lesion. Bankart repairs were performed for all patients. SLAP lesions were repaired in group C and debrided in group NC. Clinical results were analysed to compare groups C and NC by using the visual analogue scale pain score, American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons score, Constant scores, Rowe score for instability and range of motion assessments. RESULTS: The clinical scores were improved in both groups at final follow-up. Also, there were no differences between two groups. No significant difference was found in terms of the range of motion measured at the last follow-up. The number of suture anchors used was significantly higher in group C than in group NC (5.6 vs. 3.8; p=0.021). CONCLUSIONS: In this study, it is considered that Bankart repair and SLAP debridement could be a treatment option in patients with a non-communicated type II SLAP lesion combined with a Bankart lesion (study design: IV, therapeutic study, case series).
