Abstract:
Objective To evaluate clinical results of arthroplasty with the UNIVERS 3-D shoulder prosthesis in post-traumatic gleno-humeral arthritis. Methods A total of 54 cases (age range of 31-84 years, mean 67.07 years) with post-traumatic gleno-humeral arthritis were treated by the arthroplasty with the UNIVERS 3-D prosthesis. Constant score and normalised Constant score were used to strictly evaluate the preoperative function of 45 cases, of which 30 cases were reviewed by Constant score and normalised Constant score postoperatively with an average follow-up of 12-68 months. Of all, 44 cases were strictly followed up in respect of preoperative and postoperative X-ray including anteroposterior, axial and Y-shaped positions. Results Compared with the pre-operation, there was a significant increase in post-operative pain, activity, mobility and strength as well as the postoperative Constant score and normalized Constant score. Total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) provided better score for daily life and mobility than hemiarthroplasty, with a significant difference (P
