Abstract

BACKGROUND: The present objective was to retrospectively evaluate factors affecting functional outcome of multipart proximal humeral frac-ture treated with fixation or hemiarthroplasty.METHODS: Included were 58 patients (19 women, 39 men; average age: 51.04 years; range 22-78 years) who underwent surgery for Neer type III or IV proximal humeral fractures between 2007 and 2012. All participants attended follow-up of at least 2 years. A total of 35 patients underwent open reduction and anatomical plate fixation; 23 underwent partial shoulder replacement. Patients were evaluated according to Constant-Murley shoulder scoring at final follow-up examination. Evaluated impacts on functional outcome included age, gender, American Society of Anesthesio-logists (ASA) Physical Status classification, trauma energy, type of fracture, and time to surgery.RESULTS: Mean follow-up duration was 47.25±13.29 (25-76) months. Mean Constant-Murley score was 58.65±18.62 (65.77±18.67 for the fixati-on group, 47.82±12.52 for the hemiarthroplasty group; p=0.001). When impact of independent variables on functional scores was assessed, ASA score and type of fracture were found to significantly affect functional outcome in the fixation group, and trauma energy was found to significantly affect functional outcome in the hemiarthroplasty group. Complications were detected in 20 patients (34.5%) upon final examination, 14 of whom (70%) had rotator cuff deficiency.DISCUSSION: Though improved functional results may be obtained using plate fixation in the surgical treatment of multipart proximal humeral fractures, the high rates of rotator cuff failure associated with both surgical methods should be considered.

Özet

AMAÇ: Bu çalışmada, fiksasyon veya hemiartroplasti ile tedavi edilmiş olan parçalı proksimal humerus kırıklarında hastaların fonksiyonel sonucuna etki eden faktörleri geriye dönük olarak değerlendirmeyi amaçladık.GEREÇ VE YÖNTEM: Çalışmamıza 2007-2012 yılları arasında kliniğimizde Neer tip 3 ve 4 proksimal humerus kırığı nedeniyle ameliyat edilen ve ameliyat sonrası en az iki yıl takibi sürdürülen 58 (19 kadın, 39 erkek; ort. yaş; 51.04 yıl; dağılım 22-78 yıl) hasta dahil edildi. Hastaların 35'ine açık redüksiyon ve anatomik plak fiksasyon, 23'üne parsiyel omuz protezi uygulandı. Hastalar son kontrollerinde Constant-Murley'in omuz skorlamasına göre değerlendirildi. Hastaların yaş, cinsiyet, ASA skoru, travma enerjisi, kırık tipi ve ameliyat öncesi sürenin fonksiyonel sonuçlar üzerine etkisi incelendi.BULGULAR: Hastalar ortalama 47.25±13.29 (25-76) ay takip edildi. Hastaların tümünde ortalama Constant-Murley puanı 58.65±18.62 olarak tespit edildi. Fonksiyonel puan fiksasyon grubunda 65.77±18.67 iken, hemiartroplasti grubunda 47.82±12.52 olarak saptandı (p=0.001). Bağımsız değişkenlerin birden fazlasının fonksiyonel sonuçlara etkisi incelendiğinde, fiksasyon grubunda ASA skoru ve kırık tipi, hemiartroplasti grubunda ise travma enerjisi ile fonksiyonel sonuçları anlamlı düzeyde etkilediği tespit edildi. Son takipte 20 hastada (%34.5) komplikasyon saptandı ve bunların 14'ü (%70) rotator cuff yetmezliğiydi.SONUÇ: Çok parçalı proksimal humerus kırıklarının cerrahi tedavisinde plak fiksasyonu ile daha yüksek fonksiyonel sonuç elde edilebilirken her iki cerrahi yöntemde rotator cuff yetmezlik oranının yüksek oluşu göz önünde bulundurulmalıdır
