Background: Description of the native shape of a glenoid helps surgeons to preoperatively plan the position of a shoulder implant. A statistical shape model (SSM) can be used to virtually reconstruct a glenoid bone defect and to predict the inclination, version, and center position of the native glenoid. An SSM-based reconstruction method has already been developed for acetabular bone reconstruction. The goal of this study was to evaluate the SSM-based method for the reconstruction of glenoid bone defects and the prediction of native anatomic parameters.

Methods: First, an SSM was created on the basis of 66 healthy scapulae. Then, artificial bone defects were created in all scapulae and reconstructed using the SSM-based reconstruction method. For each bone defect, the reconstructed surface was compared with the original surface. Furthermore, the inclination, version, and glenoid center point of the reconstructed surface were compared with the original parameters of each scapula.

Results: For small glenoid bone defects, the healthy surface of the glenoid was reconstructed with a root mean square error of 1.2 ± 0.4 mm. Inclination, version, and glenoid center point were predicted with an accuracy of 2.4° ± 2.1°, 2.9° ± 2.2°, and 1.8 ± 0.8 mm, respectively.

Discussion And Conclusion: The SSM-based reconstruction method is able to accurately reconstruct the native glenoid surface and to predict the native anatomic parameters. Based on this outcome, statistical shape modeling can be considered a successful technique for use in the preoperative planning of shoulder arthroplasty.

Background: The treatment algorithm for traumatic shoulder instability has evolved, emphasizing the significance of glenoid bone loss and the glenoid track, addressing humeral, and glenoid vault bone deficiencies. This study examines trends and demographics of anterior shoulder instability procedures in the United States from 2010 to 2020.

Methods: PearlDiver database was queried for patients who underwent traumatic anterior shoulder instability procedures.

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the e!ect of arthroscopic Bankart repair (ABR) alone and ABR with an additional remplissage procedure on joint range of motion and functional results in patients with anterior shoulder instability.

Methods: This retrospective study included patients treated 1 year ago with either ABR alone or the ABR additional remplissage procedure. The Bankart lesion was determined by magnetic resonance imaging, and the amount of glenoid bone loss was determined by computed tomography.

Background: Studies have revealed that anterior glenoid rim bone resorption occurs in the early stage after arthroscopic Bankart repair (ABR) if bony Bankart lesions are absent or fail to heal. However, this structural change has never been studied after repair by footprint fixation (FF). Additionally, the relationship between the extent of rim resorption and healing of the repaired capsulolabral complex (CLC) remains unclear.

The utilization of free bone grafts to reconstruct large anterior glenoid defects has increased. Distal tibia allograft is commonly used due to its lack of donor site morbidity, ability to restore large bony defects, and near anatomic osteoarticular restoration. However, the intact coracoid and conjoint tendon often impair adequate visualization and access to perform an anatomic reconstruction during open free bone graft reconstruction and often requires violation of the subscapularis tendon to gain exposure.

Background: Precise and accurate glenoid preparation is important for the success of shoulder arthroplasty. Despite advancements in preoperative planning software and enabling technologies, most surgeons execute the procedure manually. Patient-specific instrumentation (PSI) facilitates accurate glenoid guide pin placement for cannulated reaming; however, few commercially available systems offer depth of reaming control.
