RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: The aim of this study was to create a novel complication classification for osteosynthesis-related complications following angular stable plating of the proximal humerus subsuming the influence of these complications on clinical outcome in relation to fracture morphology and consequent revision strategies. A total of 1047 proximal humerus fractures with overall 193 osteosynthesis-associated complications (24.5%) were included. The following complication types could be clarified: complication Type 1 is defined by mild varus (<20°) or valgus displacement of the humeral head without resulting in a screw cutout through the humeral head cortex. Type 2a is defined by varus displacement (<20°) of the humeral head associated with screw cutout through the humeral head cortex. Type 2b complication is limited to displacement of the greater tuberosity, lesser tuberosity, or both tuberosities. Complication Type 2c is defined by severe varus dislocation (>20°) of the humeral head with screw cutout at the humeral head cortex. Complication Type 3 describes a displacement of the angular stable plate in the humeral shaft region with associated shaft-sided screw cutout, while the position of the humeral head remains static. Complication Type 4 is characterized by the occurrence of AVN with or without glenoidal affection (4a/b). Clinical outcome according to the constant score was mainly affected by type 2-4, leading to a deteriorated result. Depending on the type of complication, specific revision strategies can be considered. Additionally, more complex fracture patterns fostered the incidence of complications.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The best surgical management of displaced proximal humeral fractures remains a matter of considerable debate. This study presents mid-term functional outcome (median 4 years) after locking plate osteosynthesis for displaced proximal humeral fractures. METHODS: Between February 2002 and December 2014 1031 patients with 1047 displaced proximal humeral fractures were treated by open reduction and locking plate fixation with the same implant and received consecutive prospective follow up at least 24 months after surgical treatment. Clinical follow-up consisted of Constant Murley score (CS), Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand score (DASH), and Short Form 36 questionnaire (SF-36). Complete follow-up could be performed in 557 (53.2%) cases, with a mean follow-up of 4.0 ± 2.7 years. RESULTS: Of 557 patients (67% women; mean age at time of osteosynthesis: 68.3 ± 15.5 years) absolute CS of all patients 4 ± 2.7 years after surgery was 68.4 ± 20.3 points. Normalized CS according to Katolik was 80.4 ± 23.8 points, and CS in percentage to the contralateral side (%CS) was 87.2 ± 27.9%. DASH score was at 23.8 ± 20.8 points. Osteosynthesis related complications (secondary displacement, screw cutout, avascular necrosis (n = 117 patients) were associated with lower functional scores (mean CS was 54.5 ± 19.0 p.; nCS 64.5 ± 22.9 p.;%CS 71.2 ± 25.0%; DASH score 31.9 ± 22.4 p.). The SF 36 was 66.5 points in the case cohort and a vitality mean of 69.4 points. Patients with a complication showed lower results (SF 36 56.7; vitality mean 64.9 points). CONCLUSIONS: Overall, patients following locking plate osteosynthesis of displaced proximal humeral fractures showed good to moderate outcomes four years after surgery. Mid-term functional outcomes correlate significantly with those at 1 year postoperatively. Furthermore, there is a significant negative correlation of midterm functional outcome with the occurrence of complications. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level III, prospective nonconsecutive patients.
