Abstract

Background. The shoulder joint is the one most amenable to dislocation. Dislocation of the humeral head is complicated by combined injuries of the shoulder joint, and if the patient does not seek treatment on the first day after the dislocation, irreversible changes in bone and soft tissue structures are formed.The aim of this review was to analyze modern methods of diagnosis and treatment of patients with defects in the articular surfaces of the scapula and humerus head with chronic shoulder dislocations.Material and methods. To search for literature data, we used the electronic databases MEDLINE, PudMed, eLIBRARY with a selection of sources published from 2000 to 2020. The analysis was carried out on works devoted to the diagnosis, surgical treatment and complications of traumatic shoulder dislocations.Results. When analyzing the literature on the surgical treatment of shoulder dislocations, we did not find clear criteria for planning the extent of surgery. The obtained results of surgical treatment testify to well-studied technologies for treating osteochondral defects of the humeral head up to 25 % of its total area. In the presence of a defect of 50 % of humeral head area or more, satisfactory results are shown when carrying out arthroplasty of the joint using a reverse endoprosthesis. However, the treatment of defects ranging in size from 25 to 50 % is still an unexplored problem. There are single techniques using allografts, mainly in English-speaking countries and, to a lesser extent, on the territory of the Russian Federation. Thus, the search for an algorithm for choosing a surgical treatment based on multi-layer spiral computed tomography and/or magnetic resonance imaging data, and the development of a new method of surgical treatment taking into account the obtained data are priority areas in modern traumatology and orthopedics.
