Abstract

After 38 years of unchallenged reign of cemented full polyethylene glenoid implants, the main problem of anatomical shoulder arthroplasty is still glenoid loosening, also the main cause of failure. A certain concern regarding uncemented metal back components in total anatomical shoulder arthroplasty has developed, due to problems evoked in the literature. This work is a comprehensive bibliographical review of the different clinical and biomechanical studies of noncemented glenoid implants. Those publications often showed a high rate of failure of uncemented glenoid implants, but their arguments appeared often theoretical or based on old and/or nonadapted devices. In conclusion, the authors emphasise that research on new designs of metal back components needs to go on. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

20. Obstetrical Brachial Plexus Palsy. Prediction of Outcome in Upper Root Injuries.

Abstract

Thirty obstetrical brachial plexus palsies involving the upper roots were retrospectively reviewed. There were 20 C5–C6 palsies and ten C5–C6–C7 palsies in which recovery of C7 occured by the end of the first month. Recovery of elbow flexion at 3 months, C7 involvement and high birthweight were the best early predictors of outcome, but all were unreliable when used separately. In combination, recovery of elbow flexion and birthweight predicted the final outcome reasonably satisfactorily, particularly when elbow flexion at 9 months, and not 3 months was considered (risk of error = 13%). Brachial plexus reconstruction may therefore be justified when there was initial C7 involvement associated with increased birthweight and poor elbow flexion at 6–9 months. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
