          Abstract

          Introduction:

          No specific study has investigated the characteristics and outcomes of anterior shoulder dislocations in morbidly obese individuals. The purpose of this study was to describe shoulder dislocations in patients with body mass index (BMI) greater than 40.

          Methods:

          A retrospective review was conducted to identify patients aged 18 years and older with a BMI ≥40 who presented with a shoulder dislocation in a single institution from 2000 to 2020. Dislocation patterns, associated injuries, treatment modalities, and associated complications were recorded.

          Results:

          A significant increase was noted in the number of patients with BMI greater than 40 presenting per year ( r 2 = −0.831, P < 0.01) over the past 20 years. A significant increase was noted in the average BMI per year in this population ( r 2 = 0.504, P = 0.028). Fifteen patients (19.5%) experienced at least one recurrent dislocation episode. Ten patients had a Bankart lesion that was associated with an elevated BMI ( P = 0.04). Nine patients (11.7%) sustained an associated neurologic injury (no association with BMI).

          Conclusions:

          Over time, there has been an increase in shoulder dislocations in morbidly obese individuals in the United States, alongside an overall increase in the average BMI of patients who present with shoulder dislocations.

            Functional outcome and risk of recurrent instability after primary traumatic anterior shoulder dislocation in young patients.

            The prevalence and risk factors for recurrent instability and functional impairment following a primary glenohumeral dislocation remain poorly defined in younger patients. We performed a prospective cohort study to evaluate these outcomes. We also aimed to produce guidelines for the design of future clinical trials, assessing the efficacy of interventions designed to improve the outcome after a primary dislocation. We performed a prospective cohort study of 252 patients ranging from fifteen to thirty-five years old who sustained an anterior glenohumeral dislocation and were treated with sling immobilization, followed by a physical therapy program. Patients received regular clinical follow-up to assess whether recurrent instability had developed. Functional assessments were made and were compared for two subgroups: those who had not had instability develop and those who had received operative stabilization to treat recurrent instability. On survival analysis, instability developed in 55.7% of the shoulders within the first two years after the primary dislocation and increased to 66.8% by the fifth year. The younger male patients were most at risk of instability, and 86.7% of all of the patients known to have recurrent instability had this complication develop within the first two years. A small but measurable degree of functional impairment was present at two years after the initial dislocation in most patients. Sample-size calculations revealed that a relatively small number of patients with a primary dislocation would be required in future clinical trials examining the effects of interventions designed to reduce the prevalence of recurrent instability and improve the functional outcome. Recurrent instability and deficits of shoulder function are common after primary nonoperative treatment of an anterior shoulder dislocation. There is substantial variation in the risk of instability, with younger males having the highest risk and females having a much lower risk. Future clinical trials to evaluate primary interventions should evaluate the prevalence of recurrent instability and functional deficits, with use of an assessment tool specifically for shoulder instability, during the first two years after the initial dislocation.

              The Hill-Sachs lesion: diagnosis, classification, and management.

              The Hill-Sachs lesion is an osseous defect of the humeral head that is typically associated with anterior shoulder instability. The incidence of these lesions in the setting of glenohumeral instability is relatively high and approaches 100% in persons with recurrent anterior shoulder instability. Reverse Hill-Sachs lesion has been described in patients with posterior shoulder instability. Glenoid bone loss is typically associated with the Hill-Sachs lesion in patients with recurrent anterior shoulder instability. The lesion is a bipolar injury, and identification of concomitant glenoid bone loss is essential to optimize clinical outcome. Other pathology (eg, Bankart tear, labral or capsular injuries) must be identified, as well. Treatment is dictated by subjective and objective findings of shoulder instability and radiographic findings. Nonsurgical management, including focused rehabilitation, is acceptable in cases of small bony defects and nonengaging lesions in which the glenohumeral joint remains stable during desired activities. Surgical options include arthroscopic and open techniques.
