Arthroscopically assisted osteosynthesis of intraarticular scapular fractures

Original language description

Introduction: Intraarticular scapular fractures occur mostly in high-energy injuries in contrast to glenoid fractures, which occur mostly in humeral head dislocations. In addition to open repositioning and osteosynthesis, minivascular osteosynthesis under the control of fluoroscopy and arthroscopy has been also used. Arthroscopy allows debridement of the fracture line in the intraarticular area as well as its repositioning during repositioning maneuvers under direct visualization. Furthermore, arthroscopy allows full control over the placement of osteosynthetic material in the subchondral region. Material and methods: Between 2013 and 2020, we performed osteosyntheses of 15 intraarticular fractures of the scapula using arthroscopy in addition to perioperative fluoroscopy. Patients were followed up at regular intervals at a mean of 10 days, 4 weeks, 3, 6, 12 and 24 months and 5 years after surgery including radiographic follow-up. Clinical outcomes and signs of radiological fracture healing were assessed continuously. Additionally, at 2 and 5 years after surgery, we evaluated the results according to the Constant score system. In particular, we evaluated ventral flexion of the arm, which we consider the dominant indicator of shoulder joint function. Results: There were 11 males and 4 females, mean age 37.5 (24-52) years. Perioperatively, we achieved fracture reduction with dislocation in the intraarticular region up to a maximum of 2 mm, which was measured arthroscopically and on perioperative and postoperative radiographs. We did not observe any inflammatory complications in the postoperative period. The mean duration of fracture healing was 112 days. The mean Constant score at two years after surgery was 85 points, and at five years was 87 points. Discussion: There are relatively few papers on similar topics in the world literature, but those that exist present the benefits of arthroscopy in some types of osteosyntheses of intraarticular fractures of the scapula...
