Abstract:
Objective:To summarize the indications, early functional outcome, complications and precautions of modular reverse shoulder tumor prosthesis in the treatment of proximal humerus tumor.Methods:From September 2018 to October 2019, there were 7 patients with proximal humeral tumor underwent tumor resection and modular reverse shoulder tumor prosthesis replacement in our hospital, including 6 males and 1 female. The average age of the patients was 32 years (14-59 years), including 3 cases of giant cell tumors, 2 cases of osteosarcomas, one case of myeloma and one case of renal cancer metastasis. The prosthesis reconstruction was performed after the removal of the proximal humerus tumor according to malawer type I. Postoperative outpatient follow-up included X-ray of shoulder joint, measurement of shoulder joint activity, functional evaluation using Constant-Murley function score and Musculoskeletal Tumor Society (MSTS) function score.Results:All the 7 patients successfully completed the operation, the operation times were ranged from 125 to 215 min, averaged 158 min; the intraoperative hemorrhage were ranged from 100 to 500 ml, the averaged 257 ml; the length of resected proximal humerus were ranged from 10 to 16 cm, averaged 12 cm. All patients were followed up for 4-17 months, with an average of 8 months. At the last follow-up, the average active abduction of shoulder was 108° (80°-175°), and the average active flexion was 124° (90°-175°). Three patients complained of mild discomfort in the shoulder, the rest of the patients had no pain in the shoulder. Sleep was not affected in all patients, and the hands of seven patients could go over the top of head, and they could live and work normally. In 7 patients, the rotation of shoulder joint was limited, the abduction force of shoulder joint was decreased, the Constant-Murley function score was 72% (59%-78%), and the MSTS function score was 84% (67%-93%). None of the 7 patients had incision infection, hematoma and other related complications. There was one dislocation occurred one month after the operation because the humeral adhesion of deltoid was resected. After open reduction, a larger glenoid ball was used and tension of deltoid muscle was tightened, and no dislocation was found.Conclusion:The combined tumor prosthesis of reverse shoulder has the advantages of simple installation, lower operative requirements compared with the common reverse shoulder prosthesis compounded with allograft, easy to control the length of the prosthesis, and also can achieve satisfactory results.
