Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

Early dislocations after reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (RTSA) are uncommon but linked to factors like high BMI and male gender. Management involves addressing instability, with most RTSA implants retained.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Arthroplasty
  • Shoulder Reconstruction

Background:

  • Instability following reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (RTSA) is a known complication.
  • Risk factors, treatment strategies, and long-term outcomes for RTSA dislocations remain poorly understood.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To identify risk factors associated with early dislocations after RTSA.
  • To evaluate treatment outcomes and implant survival in patients experiencing RTSA dislocation within the first three months post-surgery.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective evaluation of patients who sustained RTSA dislocation within 3 months of surgery.
  • Analysis of demographic data, initial treatment, revision rates, and functional outcome scores (preoperative and final follow-up).

Main Results:

  • An incidence of 2.9% for atraumatic RTSA dislocations within 3 months was observed.
  • Associated factors included prior surgery (64%), male gender (82%), obesity (BMI ≥30 kg/m² in 82%), and inadequate subscapularis repair (64%).
  • 45% of RTSAs required polyethylene exchange, and 18% were converted to hemiarthroplasty; 82% of RTSAs were ultimately retained.

Conclusions:

  • Early RTSA dislocations are infrequent but associated with specific patient factors.
  • Management strategies for these dislocations are evolving, with an abduction orthosis now used for high-risk patients.
  • While many RTSAs are retained, a significant portion requires revision or component exchange.
