Background: The incidence of revision shoulder arthroplasty continues to rise, and infection is a common indication for revision surgery. Treatment of periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) in the shoulder remains a controversial topic, with the literature reporting varying methodologies, including the use of debridement and implant retention, single-stage and 2-stage surgeries, antibiotic spacers, and resection arthroplasty. Single-stage revision has been shown to have a low rate of recurrent infection, making it more favorable because it precludes the morbidity of a 2-stage operation.

The clinical disorder traditionally known as or has been the subject of several publications over the past two decades. Now, it is understood that the problem does not lie in the posterior tibial tendon per se and may even occur without tendon injury. Studies have brought new concepts and understanding that question the views on this subject, culminating in the replacement of existing classifications with one that is more assertive and discriminative of the potential presentation patterns of the deformity.

Supraspinatus Muscle Regeneration Following Rotator Cuff Tear: A Study of the Biomarkers Pax7, MyoD, and Myogenin.

Int J Mol Sci

November 2024

The Orthopedic Research Unit, Hospital Sønderjylland, Department of Regional Health Research, University of Southern Denmark, 5230 Odense, Denmark.

The success of rotator cuff tendon repair relies on both tendon healing and muscle recovery. The objective of this descriptive study was to investigate the regenerative potential of the supraspinatus muscle in rotator cuff tear conditions by quantifying the expression of Pax7, MyoD, and myogenin, basic factors that regulate myogenesis. Muscle biopsies were collected from thirty-three patients aged 34 to 73 years who underwent surgery for a rotator cuff tear affecting the supraspinatus muscle.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the ability of remaining rotator cuff (RC) muscles to compensate for humeral head translation in different stages of RC tears, specifically focusing on large tears.
  • Using a model with various degrees of RC damage, researchers tested the impact of loading remaining muscles on the translation of the humeral head in cadaveric shoulders.
  • Results showed that while some muscle compensations reduced superior translation of the humeral head in moderate tears, significant translation issues persisted in more severe tears, indicating limitations in compensatory mechanisms.

Managing Subscapularis in Shoulder arthroplasty.

J Clin Orthop Trauma

October 2024

Department of Trauma & Orthopaedics, Medway NHS Foundation Trust, UK.

Article Synopsis
  • Managing the subscapularis is crucial in shoulder arthroplasty, with various techniques for release and repair (tenotomy, peel, lesser tuberosity osteotomy) showing similar outcomes based on clinical studies, though biomechanical studies lean towards favoring lesser tuberosity osteotomy.
  • A subscapularis sparing approach offers early rehabilitation potential but requires more research to evaluate its long-term advantages.
  • If subscapularis repair fails after anatomical shoulder replacement, it can lead to issues like pain and instability, with potential treatment options including revision repairs, tendon transfer, and the switch to reverse shoulder arthroplasty, noting that the effects of repair vary based on the design of the implant used.
