Abstract

Objectives: We evaluated the results of hemiarthroplasty in the treatment of three- or four-part proximal humeral fractures. Patients and methods: Eleven patients (8 females, 3 males; mean age 64 years; range 38 to 75 years) underwent hemiarthroplasty for acute proximal humeral fractures. One patient had bilateral involvement. The ages of all the patients but one were above 60 years (91%). According to the 4-segment classification system proposed by Neer, there were five type III fractures (41.8%) and seven type IV fractures (58.3%). Surgery was performed within 20 days (mean 11 days) after fracture occurrence. Clinical assessment was made with the use of the Constant scoring system. The mean follow-up was 21 months (range 12 to 36 months). Results: Ten patients (91%) had minimal or no pain, whereas one patient (9%) complained of moderate pain. The mean Constant score was 70.5. The mean forward elevation was 105 degrees, external rotation was 28 degrees, and internal rotation was to the second lumbar vertebra. According to the Constant scores, the results were excellent and good in four patients (33.3%), fair in seven patients (58.3%), and poor in one patient (8.3%). Shoulder stability was normal in all the patients. Radiographically, there was no evidence of loosening of the prosthesis. Union of all tubercula was obtained without any displacement. One patient developed grade II heterotopic ossification. Conclusion: Shoulder hemiarthroplasty is a reliable surgical procedure for the treatment of both four-part fractures and three-part fractures associated with severe osteopenia, resulting in satisfactory shoulder function and pain relief.

Özet

Amaç: Üç veya dört parçalı proksimal humerus kırıklı olgularda hemiartroplasti sonuçları değerlendirildi. Hastalar ve yöntemler: On bir hastaya (8 kadın, 3 erkek; ort. yaş 64; dağılım 38-75) proksimal humerus akut kırığı nedeniyle hemiartroplasti uygulandı. Bir hastada iki taraflı kırık vardı. Hastaların biri dışında tümü 60 yaşından büyüktü (%91). Kırıklar Neer'in 4-segment sınıflama sistemine göre değerlendirildi; buna göre, beş omuzda (%41.8) tip III, yedi omuzda (%58.3) tip IV kı¬rık saptandı. Tüm hastalara cerrahi girişim ilk 20 gün (ort. 11 gün) içinde uygulandı. Klinik değerlendirme Constant skorlamasına göre yapıldı. Ortalama izlem süresi 21 aydı (dağılım 12-36 ay). Bulgular: On hastada (%91) ağrı hafif veya hiç yok iken, birinde (%9) orta derecede idi. Hasta grubunda Constant skoru ortalaması 70.5 bulundu. Ortalama öne elavasyon 105 derece, eksternal rotasyon ise 28 derece bulundu. Ortalama internal rotasyon ikinci lomber vertebra düzeyindeydi. Constant ölçütlerine göre, dört omuzda (%33.3) çok iyi ve iyi, yedi omuzda (%58.3) orta, bir omuzda (%8.3) kötü sonuç alındı. Omuz stabilitesi tüm hastalarda normaldi. Radyografik olarak, hastaların hiçbirinde gevşemeye ait bir bulguya rastlanmadı. Tüm hastalarda tüberkulumlarda kaynama görüldü; hiçbir hastada tüberkulumlarda deplasman gözlenmedi. Komplikasyon olarak bir hastada ikinci derece heterotopik ossifikasyon gelişti. Sonuç: Omuz hemiartroplastisi, proksimal humerusun dört parçalı ve ciddi osteopeninin eşlik ettiği üç parçalı kırıklarında omuz seviyesini koruyan ve ağrıyı gideren güvenilir bir cerrahi tedavidir.
