BackgroundOnly very few publications dealing with shoulder arthrodesis after bone resection procedures and no biomechanical studies are available. The presented biomechanical analysis should ascertain the type of arthrodesis with the highest primary stability in different bone loss situations.MethodsOn 24 fresh cadaveric shoulder specimens three different bone loss situations were investigated under the stress of abduction, adduction, anteversion and retroversion without destruction by the use of a material testing machine. In each of the testings a 16-hole reconstruction plate was used and compared to arthrodesis with an additional dorsal 6-hole plate.FindingsThe primary stability of shoulder arthrodesis with a 16-hole reconstruction plate after humeral head resection could be increased significantly if an additional dorsal plate was used. However, no significant improvement with the additional plate was detected after resection of the acromion. Of all investigated forms, arthrodesis after humeral head resection with additional plate showed the highest and arthrodesis after humeral head resection without additional plate showed the lowest force values. The mean values for forces achieved in abduction and adduction were considerably higher than those in anteversion and retroversion.InterpretationThere are no consistent specifications of arthrodesis techniques after resection situation available, thus the presented biomechanical testings give important information about the most stable form of arthrodesis in different types of bone loss. These findings provide an opportunity to minimize complications such as pseudarthrosis for a satisfying clinical outcome.
