Abstrakt: Purpose: To assess the biomechanical utility of a posterior acromial bone block (PABB) for the treatment of posterior glenohumeral instability.
Methods: Ten fresh-frozen cadaveric specimens were obtained based upon an a priori power analysis. A 2.5-cm scapular spine autograft was harvested from all shoulders. A custom robot device was used to apply a 50-N compressive force to the glenohumeral joint. The humeral head was translated 10 mm posteroinferiorly at 30 degrees from the center of the glenoid at a rate of 1.0 mm/s in 6 consecutive conditions: (1) intact specimen, (2) intact with PABB, (3) posterior capsulolabral tear, (4) addition of the PABB, (5) removal of the PABB and repair of the capsulolabral tear (LR), and (6) addition of the PABB with LR. The maximum force required to obtain this translation was recorded. Paired t tests were performed to compare relevant testing conditions.
Results: Ten cadavers with a mean ± SD age of 54.4 ± 13.1 years and mean ± SD glenoid retroversion of 6.5 ± 1.0 degrees were studied. The PABB provided greater resistance force to humeral head translation compared to the instability state (instability, 29.3 ± 15.3 N vs PABB, 47.6 ± 21.0 N; P = .001; 95% confidence interval [CI], -27.6 to -10.0). When comparing PABB to LR, the PABB produced higher resistance force than LR alone (PABB, 47.6 ± 21.0 N; LR, 34.2 ± 20.5 N; P = .012; 95% CI, -23.4 to -4.1). An instability lesion treated with the PABB, with LR (P = .056; 95% CI, -0.30 to 20.4) or without LR (P = .351; 95% CI, -6.8 to 15.7), produced resistance forces similar to the intact specimen.
Conclusions: A PABB is biomechanically effective at restoring the force required to translate the humeral head posteriorly in a cadaveric, posterior glenohumeral instability model. A posterior acromial bone block is a biomechanically feasible option to consider in patients with recurrent posterior instability.
Clinical Relevance: Augmentation of the posterior acromion may be a biomechanically feasible option to treat posterior shoulder instability.
