Résumé
Introduction: Glenoid bone volume and bone quality can render the fixation of a reversed shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) basis plate hazardous. Cadaveric study at our institution has demonstrated that optimal baseplate fixation could be achieved with screws in three major columns. Our aim is to review our early rate of aseptic glenoid loosening in a series of baseplates fixed according to this principle.
Methods: Between 2005 and 2008, 48 consecutive RSA (Reversed Aequalis) were implanted in 48 patients with an average age of 74.4 years (range, 56 to 86 years). There were 37 women and 11 men. Twenty-seven primary RSAs were performed for cuff tear arthropathy, 3 after failed rotator cuff surgery, 6 for failed arthroplasties, 7 for acute fractures and 5 after failed ORIF. All baseplate fixations were done using a nonlocking posterior screw in the scapular spine, a nonlocking anterior screw in the glenoid body, a locking superior screw in the coracoid and a locking inferior screw in the pillar. All patients were reviewed with standardized radiographs. We reported the positions of the screws in relation to the scapular spine and the coracoid process in two different views. We defined screw positions as totally, partially or out of the target. Finally, we reported aseptic glenoid loosening which was defined as implant subsidence.
Results: Four patients were lost to follow-up. Thus 44 shoulders could be reviewed after a mean follow-up of 16 months (range, 9 to 32 months). Thirty-seven (84%) screws were either partially or totally in the spine. Thus, 7 (16%) scapular spine screws were out of the target. No coracoid screw was out of the target. At final follow-up control, we reported no glenoid loosening.
Conclusion: Early glenoid loosening occurred before the two years follow-up and is most of time related to technical problems and/or insufficient glenoid bone stock and bone quality. Our study demonstrate that baseplate fixation of a RSA according to the three columns principle is a reproducible technique and a valuable way to prevent early glenoid loosening.
