Posterior dislocation of the shoulder may be missed or neglected at initial presentation especially in developing countries. We present a case of 40-year-old Indian man who had 3-month missed posterior dislocation of the right shoulder along with malunited fracture of the anatomical neck of the humerus. Open reduction and stabilization with modified McLaughlin procedure was performed. Rotational osteotomy of proximal humerus had to be performed as supplementary procedure to keep the humeral head stable in glenoid cavity during functional range of movements. The patient had excellent result of the shoulder at 3 years follow-up.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the relationship of the greater tuberosity and the lateral fin of the prosthesis by using cadaveric research.
METHODSNine pairs of fresh-frozen upper extremity specimens (n = 18) were collected. Two-part anatomical neck fracture models were created by osteotomy along the anatomical neck. A standardized humeral head replacement procedure was carried out. The prosthesis was implanted in 20 degrees and 40 degrees of retroversion respectively, and the distance between the bicipital groove and lateral fin of the prosthesis was measured.
RESULTSThe lateral fins of prostheses in all specimens were located behind the bicipital groove. The average distances were 7.3 mm in 20 degrees retroversion and 4.0 mm in 40 degrees retroversion.
CONCLUSIONIt is better to fix the greater tuberosity over the lateral fin during humeral head replacement.

BACKGROUND:
The open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) was a standard treatment approach for fracture at distal humerus intercondylar, whereas the optimal way before ORIF remains inconclusive. We, therefore, performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to assess the efficacy and safety of olecranon osteotomy vs. triceps-sparing approach for patients with distal humerus intercondylar fracture.
METHODS:
The electronic searches were systematically performed in PubMed, EmBase, Cochrane library, and Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure from initial inception till December 2019. The primary endpoint was the incidence of excellent/good elbow function, and the secondary endpoints included Mayo elbow performance score, duration of operation, blood loss, and complications.
RESULTS:
Nine studies involving a total of 637 patients were selected for meta-analysis. There were no significant differences between olecranon osteotomy and triceps-sparing approach for the incidence of excellent/good elbow function (odds ratio [OR]: 1.37; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.69-2.75; P = 0.371), Mayo elbow performance score (weight mean difference [WMD]: 0.17; 95% CI: -2.56 to 2.89; P = 0.904), duration of operation (WMD: 4.04; 95% CI: -28.60 to 36.69; P = 0.808), blood loss (WMD: 33.61; 95% CI: -18.35 to 85.58; P = 0.205), and complications (OR: 1.93; 95% CI: 0.49-7.60; P = 0.349). Sensitivity analyses found olecranon osteotomy might be associated with higher incidence of excellent/good elbow function, longer duration of operation, greater blood loss, and higher incidence of complications as compared with triceps-sparing approach.
CONCLUSIONS
This study found olecranon osteotomy did not yield additional benefit on the incidence of excellent/good elbow function, while the duration of operation, blood loss, and complications in patients treated with olecranon osteotomy might be inferior than triceps-sparing approach.

OBJECTIVE:
To compare the effectiveness of ultrasound- and arthrography-assisted Kirschner wire fixation in the treatment of Jakob type Ⅱ lateral condylar humerus fracture (LCHF) in children.
METHODS:
A clinical data of 101 children with Jakob type Ⅱ LCHF, who met the selection criteria and were admitted between April 2021 and April 2022, was retrospectively analyzed. Of them, 47 cases were treated with ultrasound-assisted Kirschner wire fixation (group A), and 54 cases with arthrography-assisted surgery (group B). There was no significant difference in gender, age, cause of injury, fracture side, and disease duration between groups (P>0.05). Intraoperative fluoroscopy times, operation time, and hospital stay, Flynn elbow joint function score, and postoperative complications were recorded and compared between groups. X-ray examination was performed to observe the healing of fracture, and measure the carrying angle and the shaft-condylar angle (SCA).
RESULTS:
The success rate of closed reduction was significantly higher in group A than in group B (P<0.05), and the intraoperative fluoroscopy times was significantly less in group A than in group B (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in operation time and hospital stay between groups (P>0.05). All children in both groups were followed up 12-18 months, with an average of 13.6 months. X-ray reexamination showed that the fractures of both groups healed, and the difference in healing time was not significant (P>0.05). At last follow-up, there was no significant difference in carrying angle and SCA between unaffected side and affected side in both groups and between groups A and B in affected side (P>0.05). There was no significant difference in Flynn elbow joint function score between groups (P>0.05). There were 18 cases of lateral spurs formation in group A, 1 case of pinning infection and 26 cases of lateral spurs formation in group B, and there was no significant difference in the incidence of the above complications (P>0.05).
CONCLUSION
Compared with the arthrography, the ultrasound-assisted Kirschner wire fixation in the treatment of Jakob type Ⅱ LCHF in children can avoid the open reduction and decrease the number of intraoperative fluoroscopy, and obtain the good effectiveness.

OBJECTIVE:
To investigate clinical effects of intraoperative arthrography monitoring assisted closed reduction and internal fixation for intercondylar fracture of humerus in children.
METHODS:
From January 2013 to July 2018, 18 children with intercondylar fracture of humerus were treated by operation, including 13 males and 5 females aged from 3 to 12 years old with an average age of (8.50±2.57) years old. According to Toniolo & Wilkinson classification, 8 children were typeⅠand 10 children were typeⅡ. During the operation, closed reduction and internal fixation were performed under the monitoring of intraoperative radiography, open reduction and internal fixation were performed in necessity. Mayo score of elbow joint was used to evaluate clinical effect at 6 months after operation.
RESULTS:
All children were underwent arthrography monitoring during operation, 5 children were treated with closed reduction and internal fixation for intraoperative arthrography found no fracture of articular cartilage, 11 children by closed reduction and internal fixation because of fracture of articular cartilage involving the joint space with displacement less than 2 mm, and 2 children by closed or open reduction and internal fixation for fracture of articular cartilage surface with displacement above 2 mm, which 1 child with smooth of joint surface was performed closed reduction and internal fixation, 1 child without smooth of joint surface and displacement above 2 mm was performed open reduction and internal fixation. All children were followed up from 8 to 26 months with an average of (20.28±4.40) months. All factures were healed from 6 to 9 weeks with an average of (7.33±0.77) weeks. Postoperative Mayo score of elbowjoint at 6 months was (89.44±11.36), and 12 patients got excellent results, 5 good and 1 poor. One patient occurred partial limitation of flexion or extension of elbow joint. No elbow deformity and other complications occurred.
CONCLUSION
The treatment of intercondylar fracture of humerus in children under monitoring of intraoperative radiography could reduce opertaion injuries and complications, confirm the reduction effect of articular surface of cartilage in time and clearly, and promote recovery of elbow joint function.
