Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Background: In obese patients, total hip arthroplasty (THA) can be technically demanding with increased perioperative risks. The aim of this prospective cohort study is to evaluate the effect of body mass index (BMI) on radiological restoration of femoral offset (FO) and leg length as well as acetabular cup positioning.Methods: In this prospective study, patients with unilateral primary osteoarthritis (OA) treated with THA between September 2010 and December 2013 were considered for inclusion. The perioperative plain radiographs were standardised and used to measure the preoperative degree of hip osteoarthritis, postoperative FO, leg length discrepancy (LLD), acetabular component inclination and anteversion.Results: We included 213 patients (74.5% of those considered for inclusion) with a mean BMI of 27.7 (SD 4.5) in the final analysis. The postoperative FO was improper in 55% and the LLD in 15%, while the cup inclination and anteversion were improper in 13 and 23% of patients respectively. A multivariable logistic regression model identified BMI as the only factor that affected LLD. Increased BMI increased the risk of LLD (OR 1.14, 95% CI 1.04 to 1.25). No other factors included in the model affected any of the primary or secondary outcomes.Conclusion: Increased BMI showed a negative effect on restoration of post-THA leg length but not on restoration of FO or positioning of the acetabular cup. Age, gender, OA duration or radiological severity and surgeon’s experience showed no relation to post-THA restoration of FO, leg length or cup positioning.

- 2018
-
In: The Journal of Arthroplasty. - : CHURCHILL LIVINGSTONE INC MEDICAL PUBLISHERS. - 0883-5403 .- 1532-8406. ; 33:2, s. 436-440

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Background: We aimed to investigate the influence of preoperative radiological severity and symptom duration of hip osteoarthritis (OA) on the postoperative functional outcome, quality of life, as well as abductor muscle strength after total hip arthroplasty (THA). Methods: In this prospective cohort study, we studied 250 patients. Preoperatively, we evaluated the function with the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis (WOMAC) index and quality of life with euroqol-5D (EQ-5D). At 1 year after THA, the same scores and also hip abductor muscle strength were measured in 222 patients. We divided the cohort twice, first according to the radiological OA severity [Kellgren-Lawrence classification (KL)] and then according to the OA symptom duration. We investigated whether the preoperative KL class and symptom duration influenced the 1-year WOMAC (primary outcome measure) or EQ-5D and abductor muscle strength (secondary outcome measures). Results: The crude results showed that KL class and symptom duration had no influence (P = .90 and P = .20, respectively) on the 1-yearWOMAC. Younger age, male gender, and lower body mass index were associated with a better function. Regarding 1-year EQ-5D, the crude results showed that body mass index and KL class had no influence (P = .83 and P = .39, respectively). The adjusted results showed that only age and gender influenced the postoperative EQ-5D. No influence of the tested factors was found on the 1-year abductor muscle strength. Conclusion: Preoperative radiological OA severity and symptom duration had no influence on the outcome of THA and should probably not affect the decision about timing the operative intervention.

Journal article (other academic/artistic)abstract
- Background: Restoration of shoulder geometry is desirable in total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) and thought to influence the postoperative clinical outcome. We aimed to study the association of postoperative lateral humeral offset (LHO) changes and clinical outcome, as well as to investigate the ability of stemless anatomic TSA to restore shoulder geometry. Methods: In patients with primary shoulder osteoarthritis who underwent stemless anatomic TSA, the preoperative and postoperative clinical outcome was measured. Shoulder geometry was measured on preoperative computed tomography for the osteoarthritic shoulder and contralateral healthy shoulder and on postoperative computed tomography for the operated shoulder. Results: Forty-four patients with a minimum follow-up of 12 months (range, 12-50 months) were available for the study. Postoperatively, the clinical outcome measures improved. The postoperative difference in LHO between the operated shoulder and contralateral healthy shoulder was 1.3 +/- 4.6 mm and was correlated with scores on the short version of the Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand questionnaire at 3 months (Pearson correlation = 0.36, P =.01) and visual analog scale for pain at rest (Pearson correlation = 0.30, P =.03) and with exertion (Pearson correlation = 0.34, P =.01) at 3 months. Lengthening of LHO was associated with worsening shoulder function at 3 months but not at 12 months. The postoperative shoulder geometric parameters were restored postoperatively to acceptable ranges. Conclusion: The stemless anatomic TSA could restore shoulder geometry in an acceptable manner. At 3 months but not at 12 months, increased LHO had a negative effect on shoulder function and resulted in more shoulder pain at rest and with exertion but did not affect quality of life, health status, or range of motion.

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Purpose The aims of this study were to assess the function and quality of life after the Total Evolutive Shoulder System (TESS) reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA), to evaluate the radiological stability of the stemless version and to address the effect of arm lengthening and scapular notching (SN) on the outcome. Methods This was a prospective comparative non-randomised study. A total of 37 consecutive patients (40 shoulders) underwent TESS RSA between October 2007 and January 2012; 16 were stemless and 26 were stemmed. At a mean follow-up of 39 months (15-66), we evaluated range of motion (ROM), pain and functional outcome with QuickDASH and quality of life with EQ-5D score. Radiologically, component positioning, signs of loosening, SN and arm length difference were documented. Results We found a significant improvement in functional outcome and reduction of pain in both stemmed and stemless groups. No humeral loosening was evident, but there were four glenoid loosenings. In 12 shoulders that developed SN, seven already had scapular bone impression (SBI) evident on initial post-operative radiographs. Glenoid overhang seemed to decrease the risk of SN. Arm lengthening was associated with better EQ-5D but did not influence ROM or functional outcome. Conclusions Reverse shoulder arthroplasty markedly improved shoulder function. SN is of concern in RSA, but proper positioning of the glenoid component may prevent its development.

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Purpose The aim of this study was to investigate the ability of a stemless shoulder prosthesis to restore shoulder anatomy in relation to premorbid anatomy. Methods This prospective study was performed between May 2007 and December 2013. The inclusion criteria were patients with primary osteoarthritis (OA) who had undergone stemless total anatomic shoulder arthroplasty. Radiographic measurements were done on anteroposterior X-ray views of the glenohumeral joint. Results Sixty-nine patients (70 shoulders) were included in the study. The mean difference between premorbid centre of rotation (COR) and post-operative COR was 1 ± 2 mm (range −3 to 5.8 mm). The mean difference between premorbid humeral head height (HH) and post-operative HH was −1 ± 3 mm (range −9.7 to 8.5 mm). The mean difference between premorbid neck-shaft angle (NSA) and post-operative NSA was −3 ± 12° (range −26 to 20°). Conclusions Stemless implants could be of help to reconstruct the shoulder anatomy. This study shows that there are some challenges to be addressed when attempting to ensure optimal implant positioning. The critical step is to determine the correct level of bone cut to avoid varus or valgus humeral head inclination and ensure correct head size.

Higher preoperative sensitivity to pain and pain at rest are associated with worse functional outcome after stemless total shoulder arthroplasty : a prospective cohort study
- 2018

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Aims: The aims of this study were to investigate any possible relationship between a preoperative sensitivity to pain and the degree of pain at rest and on exertion with postoperative function in patients who underwent stemless total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA). Patients and Methods: In this prospective study, we included 63 patients who underwent stemless TSA and were available for evaluation one year postoperatively. There were 31 women and 32 men; their mean age was 71 years (53 to 89). The pain threshold, which was measured using a Pain Matcher (PM) unit, the degree of pain (visual analogue scale at rest and on exertion, and function using the short version of the Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand questionnaire (QuickDASH), were recorded preoperatively, as well as three and 12 months postoperatively. Results: We found an inverse relationship between both the preoperative PM threshold and pain (VAS) at rest and the 12-month postoperative QuickDASH score (Pearson correlation coefficient (r) >= 0.4, p < 0.05). A linear regression analysis showed that the preoperative PM threshold on the affected side and preoperative pain (VAS) at rest were the only factors associated with the QuickDASH score at 12 months. Conclusion: These findings indicate the importance of central sensitization in the restoration of function after TSA. Further studies are required to investigate whether extra analgesia and rehabilitation could influence the outcome in at risk patients.

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- It has been shown that anatomical reconstruction is an important step in achieving good function after shoulder arthroplasty. It is essential to reconstruct the distance between the coracoid process and greater tubercle as this relates to the moment arm of the deltoid and rotator cuff muscles. This study evaluated the reliability of measurement of the lateral humeral offset (LHO) on plain radiographs and on computed tomography (CT). Four independent observers performed measurements of LHO on radiographs and CT from 26 patients awaiting shoulder reconstruction. The interobserver reliability and intraobserver reproducibility were assessed. Interobserver reliability and intraobserver reproducibility of LHO in axial CT scans were excellent. Plain radiography showed fair to excellent interobserver reliability and variable intraobserver reproducibility. CT is a reliable tool to measure LHO supporting its use in preoperative planning. When AP radiography is used for preoperative planning the examiner should be aware of its limitations and standardisation protocols should be considered.

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Shoulder arthroplasty surgery has undergone remarkable progress. New concepts like reverse and stemless shoulder prostheses have been widely used. The Total Evolutive Shoulder System (TESSA (R)) is a new innovative system that provides the surgeon with different prosthetic versions. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate our short-term results and complications of the TESS. 56 consecutive patients were operated with one of the two versions of TESS (anatomical or reverse) between October 2007 and December 2009. Preoperative and postoperative evaluation of the function and life quality was achieved by the Quick Disability of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand (DASH) index and EQ-5D self-report questionnaire, respectively. Radiographic follow-up by anteroposterior, axillary and lateral views was done. The anterosuperior approach was used in all cases. We compared the outcome in fracture patients with other categories. 49 patients were available for 9-24 months (mean 14) clinical and radiographic postoperative follow-up. The mean of quick DASH improved from 56 preoperatively to 34 postoperatively (p < 0.001) and EQ-5D from 0.36 preoperatively to 0.73 postoperatively (p < 0.001). The complications were few and we had no radiolucencies or scapular notching during the study period. Fracture patients did worse compared to other categories. TESS prosthesis showed promising short-term results with few complications. The reverse version could be implanted without stem if initial stability was adequate. Long-term follow-up is required to confirm the results of this innovative system in the long run.

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The aim of this retrospective cohort study was to investigate the effect of BMI on 1-year functional outcome, quality of life (QoL) and rate of postoperative complications after shoulder arthroplasty. We included 121 patients (59 men and 62 women) with primary osteoarthritis (OA) who underwent anatomical or reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA or rTSA) between 2011 and 2016. Age, sex, preoperative BMI, preoperative medical status using American score of anesthesiologists (ASA) class, type of prosthesis, preoperative and 1-year postoperative functional outcome using the Constant score and quality of life (QoL) using the EQ-5D as well as postoperative complication rate were documented. Patients were divided into three groups based on their BMI, group 1 (normal weight, BMI <25), group 2 (overweight, BMI 25-30) and group 3 (obese, >BMI 30). All three groups were comparable regarding age, sex and ASA class, preoperative Constant score EQ-5D. We found significant improvement of the Constant score and EQ5D at 1-year postoperative follow-up, regardless of BMI (p<0.05). Comparing the three groups, we found no significant differences among them in 1-year Constant score, EQ-5D or postoperative rate of complications. This study showed that BMI did not affect functional outcome, QoL and postoperative complication rate in TSA. These results can help physicians and patients to make reasonable perioperative expectations and planning.

Total Shoulder Arthroplasty : clinical and radiological studies on the implant positioning and fixation
- 2015
-
Doctoral thesis (other academic/artistic)abstract
- Shoulder arthroplasty surgery has shown remarkable progress during the last few decades. A number of factors affect postoperative range of motion, pain and prosthetic durability. Among these factors, the length of the lever arm and joint stability is the ones that can be altered by the selected prosthetic component. It is uncertain how much of the normal anatomy needs to be re-established. Stemless prostheses with total reliance on metaphyseal fixation were introduced in France in 2004 (TESS, Zimmer Biomet). The goals were to avoid stem-related complications. Stemless implants have other potential benefits, including the ability to restore shoulder anatomy.Study I: This is a prospective cohort study of 49 patients with one of two versions of the TESS prosthesis (anatomical or reverse) with clinical and radiological follow-up ranging from 9–24 months. The TESS prosthesis showed short-term results that were comparable with other shoulder prosthetic systems.Study II: This is a prospective comparative non-randomised study of 37 patients (40 shoulders) who underwent TESS reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) with a follow-up ranging from 15–66 months. We found a significant improvement in functional outcome and reduction of pain in both stemmed and stemless groups. Glenoid overhang influenced the occurrence of scapular notching (SN).Study III: This is a radiological study showing that CT had a good reliability and reproducibility in estimating LHO.Study IV: This is a prospective radiological study of 69 patients (70 shoulders) with primary osteoarthritis (OA) who had undergone stemless total anatomical shoulder arthroplasty (TSA). This study showed that stemless anatomical TSA could be useful in restoring shoulder anatomy.Study V: This is a prospective study of 44 patients with OA who had undergone stemless anatomical TSA with a clinical and radiological follow up ranging from 12 – 50 months. Our study showed that LHO reconstruction close to the anatomy of a healthy contralateral shoulder improved shoulder function. Stemless anatomical TSA help to restore LHO. Increasing LHO may have a negative effect on shoulder function at three months but had no effect at 12 months. The main conclusions of this thesis are:1. TSA (anatomic and reverse) using stemless humeral components is reliable if bone quality is adequate. The complication rate is comparable with other shoulder prosthetic systems.2. Glenoid overhang decreased complications in RSA.3. LHO measurement on AP radiographs is less reliable and underestimates the distance when compared with CT.4. Stemless TSA could be of help in reconstructing shoulder anatomy.5. Shoulder reconstruction close to the anatomy of a healthy contralateral shoulder improves shoulder function.
