Background
Tendon transfers in conjunction with reverse total shoulder arthroplasty can significantly improve functional outcomes in patients with glenohumeral arthritis and irreparable rotator cuff deficiency. There have been multiple promising new techniques described within the last 20 years that shoulder surgeons should become familiar with.
Methods
The authors reviewed the literature on tendon transfers in the setting of reverse total shoulder arthroplasty. Procedures to restore various shoulder functions were described including surgical anatomy, techniques, pearls and pitfalls, and photos.
Results
Subscapularis insufficiency can be reconstructed with a pectoralis major transfer or latissimus dorsi transfer, with the latter having better clinical outcomes and a more anatomic line of pull. Posterosuperior rotator cuff deficiency can be reconstructed with a latissimus transfer (L’Episcopo transfer) or lower trapezius transfer, with the latter proving superior in biomechanical and short-term studies. Deltoid deficiency can be reconstructed with a pedicled upper pectoralis major transfer. Massive proximal humerus bone loss can be reconstructed with an allograft-prosthetic composite, and any of the aforementioned transfers can be utilized in this setting as well.
Conclusion
Tendon transfers in conjunction with reverse shoulder arthroplasty can significantly improve functional outcomes in patients with glenohumeral arthritis and irreparable rotator cuff deficiency. There have been multiple promising new techniques described within the last 20 years that shoulder surgeons should become familiar with.

Background
Since various social determinants of health (SDOH) have the potential to impact the utilization and postoperative outcomes of rotator cuff repair (RCR), a review of the literature is warranted. Therefore, the purpose of this systematic review was to evaluate the effects of SDOH on RCR utilization and postoperative outcomes in order to recognize external factors that may influence patients’ access to RCR and optimal clinical outcomes.
Methods
Search terms related to RCR, utilization, outcomes, and SDOH were used to identify studies that reported associations between any SDOH (as defined by the World Health Organization) and RCR utilization, access, cost, or postoperative outcomes. Articles that did not isolate RCR or did not evaluate an SDOH were excluded. Nonrandomized studies were evaluated for study quality using the Methodological Index for Nonrandomized Studies score. Due to the heterogeneity of the reported data, only qualitative analysis was possible.
Results
Overall, 842 articles were considered for inclusion and 14 studies were included in qualitative analysis. The average Methodological Index for Nonrandomized Studies score of included studies was 14.1 ± 5.0. The SDOH most frequently evaluated were insurance status and race/ethnicity. Non-White race is associated with lower odds of surgery and physical therapy (PT) utilization, as well as delayed treatment. Similarly, public insurance is associated with lower PT and surgery utilization rates and decreased acceptance for postoperative PT. Postoperatively, public insurance is associated with worse patient-reported outcome scores and lower return to work rates.
Conclusion
Various SDOH can influence access, utilization, and outcomes of RCR. Orthopedic surgeons should be aware of how factors of race and insurance type can influence a patient’s treatment and recovery after RCR.

Background
Anterior humeral avulsions of the glenohumeral ligament (aHAGL) lesions are relatively rare causes of shoulder instability that affect athletes at a higher rate than other populations. The purpose of this study is to evaluate rate of return to sport (RTS) after HAGL repair.
Methods
A search of the PubMed (MEDLINE), Scopus, and Cochrane CENTRAL databases was conducted on April 13, 2022 with the search terms “HAGL” or “humeral avulsion glenohumeral ligament” was used to conduct the systematic review. Inclusion criteria required that lesions were limited to aHAGL, axillary pouch or central HAGL, or both anterior and posterior HAGL lesions as specified by lesion description or direction of instability.
Results
Screening and full-text manuscript review identified 7/967 studies eligible for inclusion with a total of 46 aHAGL lesions in athletes. Average rate of RTS was 93.5% (standard deviation [SD] = 13.4%, n = 43/46) with rate of RTS at previous levels of play averaging 80.0% (SD = 22.1%, n = 28/35). Neither rates of concomitant procedures nor concomitant pathology were associated with variation in RTS rates overall or level of RTS. Weighted average Rowe, subjective shoulder value, and Constant scores were 87.5 (SD = 4.9), 86.0 (SD = 2.0), and 82.2 (SD = 5.1), respectively, and 78.6% (n = 22/28) of patients reported postoperative satisfaction or “good/excellent” ratings following aHAGL repair. Adverse events occurred in 18.5% of patients (n = 10/54), most frequently recurrent instability (n = 3/54). Ultimately, 6.2% of patients eventually underwent reoperation (n = 3/17).
Conclusion
As with other forms of anterior shoulder instability, RTS rates after aHAGL repair are high and many patients achieve their previous level of play. The most frequent adverse event was subjective recurrent instability with reoperation in 6.2% of patients. The findings from this study provide valuable pooled data on outcomes specific to aHAGL repair, particularly in the athlete population, and contribute to further understanding of outcomes regarding operative management of this rare pathology.

Background
Shoulder arthroplasty (SA) has been shown to improve quality of life, though outcomes may vary between individuals. Multiple factors may affect outcomes, including preoperative mental health conditions (MHCs). The goal of this systematic review was to evaluate the clinical and functional outcomes after SA in patients with MHC compared to patients without MHC.
Methods
This systematic review was performed in adherence to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines outlined by Cochrane Collaboration. A search of PubMed, the Medline Library, and EMBASE was conducted from inception until September 2023 to obtain studies reporting outcomes after total shoulder arthroplasty and reverse total shoulder arthroplasty in patients with and without MHC. Study characteristics and information on clinical and functional outcomes were collected. All included studies were case-control studies. The methodological quality of the included primary studies was appraised using the methodological index for nonrandomized studies scoring.
Results
Eleven articles published between 2016 and 2023 met inclusion criteria. In total, 49,187 patients, 49,289 shoulders, and five different MHC were included. 8134 patients in the cohort had a diagnosed MHC. The mean patient age was 67.8 years (range, 63.5-71.6 years), and 52.6% of the patients were female. The mean follow-up time was 35.5 months (range, 16.2-58.3 months). Reverse total shoulder arthroplasty was the most common type of procedure (25,543 shoulders, 51.8%). Depression and anxiety were the most reported psychiatric diagnoses (7990 patients, 98.2%). Patients with versus without MHC reported mean improvements of 38 and 42 in American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons shoulder score and mean Visual Analog Scale pain improvements of 4.7 and 4.9, respectively. Mean complication rates of 31.4% and 14.2% were observed in patients with versus without MHC, respectively. The most prevalent surgical complication in patients with MHC was infection (1.8%), followed by prosthetic complication (1.7%), and adhesive capsulitis (1.6%).
Conclusions
Patients with MHC may have lower preoperative range of motion, worse postoperative shoulder function, and higher postoperative pain levels than patients without MHC. Patients with MHC demonstrated improvements in range of motion and functional outcomes after SA but had higher reported complication and revision rates when compared to patients without MHC. Depression and anxiety were the leading conditions correlated with lower outcomes in patients with MHC after SA. Preoperative physical therapy, mental health counseling, and expectation setting may help these patients reach the maximal achievable benefit from SA.

Background
Continuous local antibiotic perfusion (CLAP) is a method for preserving tissue and function against surgical site infections (SSIs) after shoulder surgery.
Methods
To describe the application of the novel CLAP technique to 10 patients with SSIs after shoulder surgery that were not controlled with repeated surgical débridement or elderly patients who are insufficient physical resilience for further surgeries.
Results
CLAP, consisting of gentamicin, was performed for 2 weeks, after which the infection was well-controlled. The white blood cell count and C-reactive protein level improved rapidly within 1 week of initiating CLAP, after which the patients were switched to oral antibiotics for 3 months. None of the patients experienced any adverse events.
Conclusion
CLAP for SSIs after shoulder surgery was successful in preserving implants and grafts. The SSIs were controlled with no adverse events. CLAP may be an important treatment option for SSIs after shoulder surgery.

Background
A deltoid rupture can result in significant losses of shoulder function, and in the setting of a rotator cuff tear, the deltoid serves as the sole abductor of the shoulder. Deltoid ruptures can be secondary to trauma, a consequence of massive rotator cuff tears, or a result of postoperative complications. There is a paucity of literature on the management of deltoid ruptures. In this systematic review, we aim to report on the incidence of deltoid ruptures, the surgical treatment options, and the outcomes following operative treatment.
Methods
A literature search was conducted on February 1, 2023 on MEDLINE and Google Scholar. Titles and abstracts were screened and the full text versions of articles that met criteria were reviewed. Criteria for inclusion included peer-reviewed studies evaluating the outcomes following surgical treatment of deltoid ruptures (direct repair, mobilization, reconstruction, and pedicled pectoralis transfer, with or without a reverse total shoulder arthroplasty). Secondary outcomes included incidence and causes of deltoid ruptures.
Results
A total of 101 studies were retrieved. After review and additional studies identified from reference lists, a total of 14 studies were included in the review. The incidence of deltoid ruptures ranged from 0.3% to 7%, and large, full-thickness rotator cuff tears were found to be a significant risk factor. Surgical treatment options for deltoid ruptures include direct repair, rotationplasty, and pedicelled muscle-tendon transfers; and when indicated, these procedures can be paired with a reverse total shoulder replacement. Postoperatively, the operative extremity should be immobilized in the position of least tension (forward flexion and abduction, 30°-70°) for 4-8 weeks. Most patients in this systematic review who underwent surgical treatment of their deltoid rupture had significant improvements in pain and mean postoperative forward elevation and abduction above 90°.
Discussion
The current available literature demonstrates that direct deltoid repair, rotationplasty, or reconstruction (muscle tendon transfer) with or without a concomitant reverse total shoulder arthroplasty can be an acceptable treatment option in patients with deltoid defects and massive rotator cuff tear. The average shoulder flexion and abduction increased postoperatively with improvements in pain.

Background
Posterior glenoid bone loss in glenohumeral osteoarthritis poses significant challenges in shoulder arthroplasty. Anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) with a humeral head autograft to address the glenoid bone deficiency is an option for these difficult cases. Variable results with this procedure are reported in the literature. This article describes the surgical technique of posterior glenoid bone grafting in TSA using a glenoid implant with hybrid fixation and a series of reported patient functional and radiographic outcomes.
Methods
A retrospective chart review of cases from 2015 to 2020 by a single surgeon revealed 10 patients who underwent primary TSA with hybrid glenoid component and posterior glenoid bone grafting. Preoperative and postoperative radiographs were assessed for glenoid inclination, glenoid version, acromiohumeral distance, humeral stem status, and glenoid implant status. Functional outcomes were evaluated by range of motion, strength, and patient-reported clinical outcomes (pain and function on a visual analog scale, Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand score, Single Assessment Numeric Evaluation, American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons score). Complications and reoperations were also evaluated.
Results
Average follow-up was 31.4 months, active forward flexion and external rotation improved on average from 105° to 150° and 20° to 60°, respectively (P < .001) and average abduction improved from 100° to 140° (P < .002). At an average of 26.7 months, patients reported assessments (visual analog scale pain and function, Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand score, Single Assessment Numeric Evaluation, American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons scores) reveal significant (P < .05) improvement in pain and functional outcomes. Radiographically, at 23.0 ± 20.1 months, all patients demonstrated a well-fixed humeral and glenoid component without evidence of lucent lines. The bone graft used in each patient was well unionized and no radiographic complications were reported. No patients underwent revision surgery, and there was one clinical complication reported, which consisted of a suspected rotator cuff injury at follow-up.
Conclusion
Hybrid fixation with structural glenoid bone grafting in TSA resulted in excellent outcomes with no evidence of graft or component failure on follow-up radiographs and significantly reduced pain, improved functional scores, and improved active range of motion.
