Arthroscopic Glenoid Resurfacing as a Surgical Treatment for Glenohumeral Arthritis in the Young Patient: Midterm Results

Biological glenoid resurfacing for glenohumeral osteoarthritis: a systematic review

“…3,4,[6][7][8]10,14 All studies were level IV, case series. Four studies undertook a retrospective design 3,4,7,8 while three studies were prospective 6,10,14 in nature.…”

“…Techniques have been described using autograft anterior capsule, autograft fascia lata, tendoachilles allograft, lateral meniscal allograft, and a variety of commercially available grafts/scaffolds. 3,4,[6][7][8]10,14 No study has specifically evaluated durability of different graft materials, and there is no ''gold standard''. Furthermore, there remains a lack of consensus regarding the expected outcomes of biological glenoid resurfacing.…”

The glenoid in total shoulder arthroplasty

“…However a 17% revision rate was documented in the first postoperative year. Savoie et al documented statistically significant improvements for young patients with arthroscopic glenoid resurfacing with the Restore patch (Restore, DePuy Orthopaedics, Warsaw, IN, USA) at three to six-year follow-up [82]. Other data from capsule, fascia lata and Achilles tendon interposition grafts demonstrated ASES mean improvement scores from 39 to 91 at a mean sevenyear follow-up [81].…”

Humeral Hemiarthroplasty with Spherical Glenoid Reaming: Theory and Technique of The Ream and Run Procedure

“…21,22 To address the need for surgical options to treat shoulder arthritis in younger patients, biological resurfacing procedures using a number of different interposition materials have been evaluated with largely varying short and mid-term success. Autogenous fascia lata, Achilles tendon [23][24] and glenohumeral capsule, 25,26 allograft lateral meniscus 27,28 and dermal scaffolds, 29 and xenographic tissues patches 30 have all been used to resurface the worn glenoid. Both arthroscopic and open techniques have been reported and techniques have included humeral chondroplasty, humeral prosthetic surface replacement versus stemmed humeral hemiarthroplasty.…”
