Abstrakt: Background: Recently, the issue of subacromial notching, caused by acromial impingement has been reported. The purpose of this study was to assess the impact of differences in the distance between the glenosphere center and the greater tuberosity (DGT) and the distance between the glenosphere center and the acromion (DA) on the closest distance between the greater tuberosity and the acromion during active abduction in shoulders with reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (RSA).
Methods: Eleven shoulders with semiinlay RSA were analyzed. Subjects underwent fluoroscopy during active scapular plane abduction. Computed tomography of their shoulders was performed to create three-dimensional (3D) implant models at a mean of 16 months after surgery. Using model-image registration techniques, poses of 3D implant models were iteratively adjusted to match their silhouettes with the silhouettes in the fluoroscopic images (shape matching), and 3D kinematics of implants were computed. The closest distance between the acromion and greater tuberosity was computed at maximum abduction. DA and DGT were measured from 3D surface models. Shoulders were divided into two groups based on DA and DGT measurements and their closest distance data were compared between the groups.
Results: There were 7 shoulders with DA ≥ DGT, and 4 shoulders with DA < DGT. Shoulders with DA ≥ DGT showed a significantly wider distance between the greater tuberosity and acromion at maximum abduction compared to those with DA < DGT (5.9 ± 2.4 mm vs. 0.6 ± 0.7 mm, respectively, P  = .0021). There were no significant differences in maximum glenohumeral abduction angle and humeral abduction angle between the two groups. Although DA was significantly greater in shoulders with DA ≥ DGT than in those with DA < DGT (43.7 ± 4.4 mm vs. 35.1 ± 6.7 mm, respectively, P  = .0275), there was no significant difference in DGT between the two groups.
Conclusion: When DGT is less than DA in shoulders with RSA, the closest distance between the greater tuberosity and the acromion at maximum abduction is significantly wider compared to cases where DGT is greater than DA by 3D measurement. Therefore, acromial impingement is less likely to occur in shoulders with RSA when DA is greater than DGT. To avoid acromial impingement, it might be important to make DA greater than DGT.
