Evaluation of the results from non-arthroplastic treatment (arthroscopy) for shoulder arthrosis.

AI Article Synopsis

  • The study aimed to assess the outcomes of arthroscopic surgery for shoulder arthrosis by analyzing patient profiles, surgical techniques, complications, and postoperative procedures.
  • A total of 31 patients underwent the surgery between 1998 and 2011, with data collected on demographics, medical history, and functional assessments before and after the procedure using the UCLA criteria.
  • Results showed significant improvements in shoulder mobility post-surgery, although longer duration of symptoms before surgery tended to correlate with poorer outcomes, but the overall functional improvement was not significantly related to other variables.

Article Abstract

Objectives: To evaluate the functional results from patients with arthrosis who underwent an arthroscopic procedure, in an attempt to correlate these results with the patients' epidemiological profile, surgical technique used, possible complications and postoperative protocol.

Methods: Between 1998 and 2011, 31 patients (32 shoulders) with shoulder arthrosis underwent arthroscopic treatment performed by the Shoulder and Elbow Group of the Department of Orthopedics and Traumatology of Santa Casa de São Paulo. Primary or secondary cases of shoulder arthrosis under the age of 70 years, in which the rotator cuff was intact, were included. Furthermore, cases in which, despite an indication for an arthroplastic procedure, an attempt to perform an alternative procedure had been chosen, were also included. The following were evaluated: sex, age, dominance, comorbidities, length of time with complaint, associated lesions, etiology, previous treatment, operation performed, postoperative protocol and pre and postoperative active ranges of motion. The functional evaluation was conducted using the UCLA criteria, before and after the operation. The joint cartilage alterations were classified in accordance with Outerbridge and the arthrosis by means of Walch.

Results: There were statistically significant mean differences in the values for elevation, lateral rotation and medial rotation from before to after the operation (p < 0.001) and there was a tendency (p = 0.057) toward poor results with greater length of time with complaints before the surgery. The total gain in UCLA score did not have any statistically significant relationship with any of the other variables analyzed.

Conclusion: Arthroscopic treatment of glenohumeral arthrosis provided functional improvement of the glenohumeral joint, with significant gains in elevation and lateral and medial rotation, and improvements in function and pain. Greater length of time with complaints was a factor strongly suggestive of worse results.
