  • Coracoid Graft Union: a Quantitative Assessment by Computed Tomography in Primary and Revision Latarjet Procedure
    ARTICLE IN PRESS J Shoulder Elbow Surg (2018) ■■, ■■–■■ www.elsevier.com/locate/ymse ORIGINAL ARTICLE Coracoid graft union: a quantitative assessment by computed tomography in primary and revision Latarjet procedure Mohammad Samim, MD, MRCSa, Kirstin M. Small,MDb,*, Laurence D. Higgins, MD, MBAc aDepartment of Radiology, NYU Langone Medical Center, New York, NY, USA bDepartment of Radiology, Brigham and Women’s Hospital, Boston, MA, USA cBoston Shoulder Institute, Boston, MA, USA Background: The goal of the Latarjet procedure is restoration of shoulder stability enabled by accurate graft positioning and union. This study aimed to establish a reproducible method of quantitatively assess- ing coracoid graft osseous union percentage (OUP) using computed tomography (CT) scans and to determine the effect of other factors on the OUP. Materials and methods: Postoperative CT scans of 41 consecutive patients treated with the open Latarjet procedure (37% primary, 63% revision) for anterior glenohumeral instability were analyzed for the OUP, position of the graft, and screw type and angle. Two musculoskeletal radiologists independently exam- ined the images 2 times, and intraobserver and interobserver reliability was calculated using intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC). Results: Mean OUP was 66% (range, 0%-94%) using quantitate methods, with good intraobserver re- liability (ICC = 0.795) and interobserver reliability (ICC = 0.797). Nonunion and significant graft resorption was found in 2 patients. No significant difference was found in the mean OUP in the primary (63%) vs. revision Latarjet procedure (67%). Grafts were flush in 39%, medial in 36%, and lateral in 8%. The medial and neutral graft position was associated with slightly higher OUP (72% and 69%) compared with lateral (65%).

Abstract: The open Latarjet procedure has proven to be an effective procedure in the treatment of anterior shoulder instability, particularly in patients with glenoid bone loss and/or an engaging Hill-Sachs lesion. The transfer of the coracoid bone block to the anterior glenoid provides stability via the “triple blocking effect”.

LaPrade,*{ MD, PhD Investigation performed at the Department of Biomedical Engineering of the Steadman Philippon Research Institute, Vail, Colorado, USA Background: Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears are one of the most common injuries among athletes. However, the ability to fully restore rotational stability with ACL reconstruction (ACLR) remains a challenge, as evidenced by the persistence of rotational instability in up to 25% of patients after surgery. Advocacy for reconstruction of the anterolateral ligament (ALL) is rapidly increasing because some biomechanical studies have reported that the ALL is a significant contributor to internal rotational stability of the knee. Hypothesis/Purpose: The purpose of this study was to assess the effect of ALL reconstruction (ALLR) graft fixation angle on knee joint kinematics in the clinically relevant setting of a concomitant ACLR and to determine the optimal ALLR graft fixation angle. It was hypothesized that all fixation angles would significantly reduce rotational laxity compared with the sectioned ALL state. Study Design: Controlled laboratory study. Methods: Ten nonpaired fresh-frozen human cadaveric knees underwent a full kinematic assessment in each of the following states: (1) intact; (2) anatomic single-bundle (SB) ACLR with intact ALL; (3) anatomic SB ACLR with sectioned ALL; (4) anatomic SB ACLR with 7 anatomic ALLR states using graft fixation angles of 0°, 15°, 30°, 45°, 60°, 75°, and 90°; and (5) sectioned ACL and ALL.

Provencher, M.D., C.A.PT., M.C., U.S.N.R. Abstract: Recurrent multidirectional shoulder instability (MDI) is a challenging clinical problem, particularly in the setting of connective tissue diseases, and there is a distinct lack of literature discussing strategies for operative management of this unique patient group. These patients frequently present with significant glenoid bone loss, patulous and abnormal capsulolabral structures, and a history of multiple failed arthroscopic or open instability procedures. Although the precise treatment algorithm requires tailoring to the individual patient, we have shown successful outcomes in correcting recurrent MDI in the setting of underlying connective tissue disorders by means of a modified T-plasty capsular shift and rotator interval closure in conjunction with distal tibial allograft bony augmentation. The purpose of this Technical Note was to describe a technique that combines a fresh distal tibial allograft for glenoid bony augmentation with a modified T-plasty capsular shift and rotator interval closure for the management of recurrent shoulder MDI in patients presenting with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome or other connective tissue disorders after failed Latarjet stabilization. ecurrent multidirectional shoulder instability Conversely, MDI without hyperlaxity is more likely to R(MDI) is a difficult clinical problem and becomes present with anterior and/or posterior capsulolabral even more challenging in the face of connective tissue pathology1,2 in addition to bony lesions.

  • The Open Eden-Hybinette Procedure for Recurrent Anterior Shoulder Instability with Glenoid Bone Loss Joseph W
    The Open Eden-Hybinette Procedure for Recurrent Anterior Shoulder Instability With Glenoid Bone Loss Joseph W. Galvin, DO,* Zachary R. Zimmer, MD,* Alexander M. Prete, BS,* and Jon J.P. Warner, MD* In the setting of significant glenoid bone loss, soft tissue stabilization procedures for recur- rent anterior shoulder instability have high failure rates. The open or arthroscopic Eden- Hybinette procedure with tricortical iliac crest autograft has been shown to provide good results with low rates of recurrent instability. Indications for this technique include severe glenoid bone loss (>40%), recurrent instability following a Latarjet or distal tibial allograft procedure, or patients with abnormal coracoid morphology. In this technique article, we review the indications, contraindications, surgical technique, postoperative care, out- comes, and complications of the open Eden-Hybinette procedure.

Wearable defibrillators may offer a temporary alternative treatment to more invasive treatments or hospitalization. The topic is proposed based on concerns related to the safety, efficacy and value for wearable defibrillators.

This procedure can be used for upper and lower limb pain including, pain in the shoulder or knee. Nerve ablation for osteoarthritis and other limb and joint pain appears to be an emerging medical intervention with recent publications evaluating the treatment. Initial topic scoping resulted in the addition of upper limb ablation to the topic. The topic is proposed based on concerns related to the safety, efficacy and value of the intervention for treatment. 3 Renal denervation (RDN) High High Med/ High Policy Context/Reason for Selection: Renal denervation (RDN) is a treatment for chronic high blood pressure (hypertension) that does not respond adequately to drug or other treatment.

  • The Biomechanics of the Latarjet Reconstruction: Is It All About the Sling? Nobuyuki Yamamoto, MD,* and Scott P
    The Biomechanics of the Latarjet Reconstruction: Is It All About the Sling? Nobuyuki Yamamoto, MD,* and Scott P. Steinmann, MD† It has been clinically believed that the stabilizing mechanism of the Latarjet procedure is the sling effect. Biomechanical studies have demonstrated that there are 3 stabilizing mecha- nisms of the Latarjet procedure, the main one being the sling effect produced by the sub- scapularis and conjoint tendons. The other 2 mechanisms are the suturing of the capsular flap at the end-range arm position and reconstruction of the glenoid concavity at the mid- range arm position. All 3 stabilizing mechanisms function at both the mid- and end-range arm positions. After the Latarjet procedure, the shoulder even with a large glenoid defect can have stability increased by 14% compared to the normal shoulder. The acceptable clini- cal outcomes of the Latarjet procedure are supported by these 3 stabilizing mechanisms. Oper Tech Sports Med 27:49-54 © 2019 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

Our research aim was to evaluate annual hospitalizations for shoulder dislocation in paediatric patients in Italy from 2001 to 2014, on the basis of the official data source as hospitalization reports. The second purpose was to investigate geographical diversification in hospitalization for shoulder dislocation in regions of Italy. The last aim was to make statistical predictions of the number of shoulder dislocation hospitalization volumes and rates in skeletally immature patients based on data from 2001 to 2014.
