Rekonstruktion einer iatrogenen Akromionpseudarthrose

Abstract: Acromial fractures are rare but severe complications which can occur during subacromial decompression. We report a case of acromial pseudarthrosis which was discovered belatedly due to persistent pain after several operations. The pseudarthrosis was successfully treated by osteosynthesis with a distal radius plate and implantation of a monocortical bone graft from the iliac crest. Two years after surgery, the fracture has healed and the patient's pain improved significantly. In the constant score the patient a… Show more

“…The causes of initial trauma were various traffic accidents/crashes in 13 patients, a fall or fall from a height in five, injuries sustained during or due to sports activities such as skiing and gymnastics in two (including an apparent complete fracture as the final stage of stress fracture), iatrogenic accidents during surgical procedures in two, excessive muscle force in one, other accidents in three, and uncertain or unknown in three. There were two patients with iatrogenic acromion/spine fracture; one was a 34-year-old woman with psychological problems who had a fracture confirmed 2 months after open anterior acromioplasty for chronic subacromial impingement and was treated conservatively [ 45 ], while the other was a 67-year-old man whose fracture occurred during arthroscopic subacromial decompression for a massive rotator cuff tear [ 61 ] (Table 1 [ 62 – 66 ]).…”

“…The exclusion criteria were descriptive articles or cases, articles or cases without appropriate images to enable the evaluation of the injury details, stress fractures, a young patient with an unfused acromion physis, and fractures in patients with a history of surgical intervention that weakens acromion/spine. Citation tracking was conducted to find additional related English articles and notable full-text articles written in other languages, which were carefully selected and added to the qualitative synthesis (five studies) [ 22 , 44 , 59 – 61 ] (Fig. 3 ).…”

“…A scar formation anterolateral to the acromion indicated that an open procedure had been performed. In a review of the literature, we found case reports about complications and complication management following total acromionectomy [1,5,10] as well as reports about complications and complication management after excessive arthroscopic acromioplasty [3,12,14,18].…”

“…Third, if acromioplasty is performed, over-resection of the anterolateral acromion should be avoided as it may result in acromion fractures [3,12,14,18,19]. Iatrogenic detachment of the deltoid muscle can occur either directly during electrocautery processes or due to an acromial avulsion fracture [3,7,14] and must be avoided as it results in disastrous clinical impairment [7].…”

“…Although the treatment of bone defect using bone transport technique has been used widely include reconstruction of the bone defect along with soft-tissue coverage, correction of the joint contractures or malalignment. However, inevitable difficulties and complications related to bone transport technique using the Ilizarov method have been reported by many studies 9,[13][14][15][16][17][18][19] . It is remaining a major concern to these complications which could affect on the clinical outcomes.…”
