| Popis: | Background Glenoid bone loss is commonly encountered in cases of rotator cuff tear arthropathy and can create challenges during reverse shoulder arthroplasty. In this study, we sought to investigate the biomechanical properties of a new treatment option for superior glenoid defect, an augmented reverse total shoulder baseplate. Methods Three conditions were examined: non-augmented baseplate without defect, non-augmented baseplate with defect, and augmented baseplate with defect. The augmented baseplates included a 30-degree half wedge which also matched the created superior defect. The samples were cyclically loaded at a 60 ° simulated abduction angle to mimic baseplate loosening. The migration and micromotion of the baseplate were measured on the superior edge using a 3D Digital Image Correlation System. Results The migration measured in the augmented baseplate showed no significant difference when compared to the no defect or defect cases. In terms of micromotion, the augmented baseplate showed values that were between the micromotions reported for the no defect and defect conditions, but not by a statistically significant amount. Conclusion This study provides biomechanical evidence that augmented baseplates can reduce the amount of micromotion experienced by the RSA construct in the presence of significant superior glenoid bone deficiency, but do not fully restore stability to that of a full contact non-augmented baseplate. |
