Double-contrast computed tomography of the glenoid labrum.

Imaging of glenoid labrum pathology is useful to help plan surgical repair of the dislocating shoulder. Eleven patients with suspect labrum damage were imaged with computed tomography (CT) immediately after routine double-contrast shoulder arthrography. Lesions identified included attenuation, tears, and displacement of the labrum as well as stripping and stretching of the anterior shoulder joint capsule. Surgical confirmation of pathology was available in all but one case. CT of the glenoid labrum is easy to perform, low in radiation dose, and accurate.

Ipsilateral dislocation of the shoulder and elbow.

Ipsilateral dislocation of shoulder and elbow joints is a rare injury. Only 2 such cases have been reported in the English literature. We report a case of a 35-year-old man involved in a road traffic accident under the influence of alcohol. He sustained posterior left elbow and anterior left shoulder dislocation with minimally displaced greater tuberosity fracture. He also had partial median nerve palsy. Under intramuscular pethidine and intravenous diazepam, close reduction of elbow followed by shoulder was carried out. At 2 months, median nerve function returned to normal. At 3 months, almost full elbow and shoulder joint movement returned. Although rare and complex, this ipsilateral injury can be treated conservatively.

Open MR imaging of the unstable shoulder in the apprehension test position: description and evaluation of an alternative MR examination position.

The aim of this study was to describe and evaluate an alternative MR assessment procedure for analysis of unstable shoulders. Twelve patients with unilateral recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation had both shoulders examined. Magnetic resonance imaging was performed with an open-MR system in the apprehension position with the shoulder in 90 degrees of abduction and maximum tolerable external rotation. Contrast enhancement was achieved with intravenous gadolinium. Correlations were made to the findings at operation. In 10 of 12 unstable shoulders the inferior glenohumeral ligament labral complex (IGHLLC) was detached from the glenoid as seen on MR and later verified during surgery. In one shoulder MR was unable to show a capsulolabral detachment that was verified at surgery, whereas in one shoulder both MR and surgical assessment revealed no soft tissue detachment (accuracy 92 %). A Hill-Sachs lesion was visualized and verified in all unstable shoulders, whereas the stable controls revealed normal IGHLLC and no Hill-Sachs lesion. Open-MRI evaluation of the shoulder in the apprehension test position may become a useful tool for the evaluation of anterior shoulder instability.

Arthroscopic approach to acute bony Bankart lesion.

PURPOSE: To report on an arthroscopic approach to a bony Bankart lesion that uses a modified Bankart technique to fix the avulsed bone fragment to the healthy glenoid. TYPE OF STUDY: Case series study. METHODS: Of 250 patients who received surgical treatment for shoulder dislocation at our unit, 25 sport-practicing patients with acute traumatic dislocation of the shoulder and anterior glenoid rim fracture were included in this study. Inclusion criteria were bony Bankart lesions less than 3 months old and involving less than 25% of the glenoid, absence of associated lesions, and follow-up longer than 2 years. Arthroscopic procedures were performed using a modified Bankart technique to fix the avulsed bone fragment to the healthy glenoid rim using suture anchors. A modified Rowe score was devised for evaluating range of motion outcomes. RESULTS: Shoulder function and stability were restored in 23 patients (92%) by 2 years after surgery. There was no recurrence of instability. Range of motion was minimally reduced. All patients resumed sports activities: 23 (92%) at the same level of performance as before surgery and 2 (8%) at a lower level because of 20 degrees loss of external rotation. CONCLUSIONS: This arthroscopic technique seems to offer an optimal method for evaluating and treating isolated acute bony Bankart lesions involving less than 25% of the glenoid.
