Hemiarthroplasty for proximal humerus fractures and for fracture sequelae: did not differ in their outcomes
BACKGROUND: The role of hemiarthroplasty (HA) in the management of proximal humerus fractures (PHFs) and their sequalae has evolved with the development of contemporary internal fixation techniques and the widespread use of the reverse total shoulder arthroplasty. However, HA may still have a role i...

description | BACKGROUND: The role of hemiarthroplasty (HA) in the management of proximal humerus fractures (PHFs) and their sequalae has evolved with the development of contemporary internal fixation techniques and the widespread use of the reverse total shoulder arthroplasty. However, HA may still have a role in certain acute PHFs as well as select fracture sequalae. The aim of this investigation was to evaluate the outcomes of HA when used in acute fractures and fracture sequelae. METHODS: Over a 16-year period (2000 - 2016), 122 primary HA performed for either acute PHFs or fracture sequelae were identified. Of these, 70 (57.4%) HA were performed within 4 weeks of the injury, whereas 52 (42.6%) underwent HA for fracture nonunion, malunion, or avascular necrosis. The minimum follow-up period was 2 years. Outcomes included the visual analog scale for pain, range of motion, American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) score, complications, and reoperations inclusive of revision surgery. Cumulative incidence analysis was used to report implant survivorship with death as a competing risk. RESULTS: The mean follow-up time after HA was 4.8 years (range, 2-15 years) with no differences between groups (P = .102). Cohort comparisons demonstrated an older age (67.8 vs. 60.1; P = .004), lower rate of previous procedure (4.3% vs. 51.9%; P < .001), lower bone graft use (28.6% vs. 59.6%; P < .001), and a longer length of stay (5.9 vs. 3.0 days; P < .001) in the acute HA group. Additionally, no differences were observed between the acute and sequalae cohort in pain (2.0 vs. 2.5; P = .523), forward elevation (98° vs. 93°; P = .627), external rotation (30° vs. 23°; P = .215), internal rotation score (4.0 vs. 4.5; P = .589), satisfaction (P = .592), ASES scores (64.4 vs. 57.1; P = .168), complications (27.1% vs. 28.8%; P = .836), or reoperations (11.4% vs. 19.2%; P = .229). When comparing acute fractures and sequalae, the 15-year complication rates were 32.4% and 43.3%, respectively (P = .172), with 15-year reoperation rates of 13.7% and 24%, respectively (P = .098). CONCLUSIONS: HA, whether performed acutely for a PHF or in a delayed fashion for fracture sequalae, demonstrated no statistically significant differences in outcomes for all examined parameters. HA in this setting may provide reasonable pain relief. However, limited motion, marginal ASES scores, and elevated rates of complications and reoperations can be expected up to 15 years postoperatively. |
