Abstract
OBJECTIVE Stabilization of the humeral shaft and the restoration of shoulder function dependent on the osseous integrity of the prosthetic stem component. INDICATIONS In cases of a stable prosthesis stem, an isolated plate osteosynthesis is possible. Prosthesis stem replacement is indicated in cases of a loose stem. With sufficient bone stock of the proximal humeral segment, a change to a shorter humeral shaft component with subsequent plate fixation of the fracture is possible. If the bone stock is poor, conversion to a long revision stem is necessary. CONTRAINDICATIONS Inoperability of the patient due to serious comorbidities. Advanced age and low demands on shoulder function are relative contraindications for complex prosthesis replacements. SURGICAL TECHNIQUE Plate osteosynthesis can be done through an anterior or posterior approach, stem replacement only from anterior deltopectoral approach. When changing humeral shaft components, the loose shaft and all cement residues are removed, the fracture is reduced and, if possible, a shorter shaft is implanted with subsequent plate osteosynthesis of the fracture. When changing to a long revision stem, additional osteosynthesis with cerclages wires is usually sufficient. In case of poor bone stock, an additive autologous or allogenic bone grafting can be performed. An instable anatomical prosthesis with poor shoulder function may require conversion to an inverse prosthesis. POSTOPERATIVE MANAGEMENT In cases of an isolated plate osteosynthesis with an otherwise stable prosthesis, immediate active rehabilitation of the upper limb is advocated. When a prosthesis replacement and conversion to an inverse prosthesis is performed the shoulder is immobilized in 30° abduction for 6 weeks. Passive and after 3 weeks active-assistive shoulder movement up to 90° abduction and flexion is allowed. RESULTS In 40 patients with a periprosthetic humeral fracture, an isolated plate osteosynthesis was performed in 30 cases and a prosthesis replacement in 10 cases. Complications included 3 infections and 3 temporary radial nerve palsies. Revisions due to pseudarthrosis were necessary in 2 cases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND How the shape of the glenoid defect being reconstructed influences stability in reversed shoulder arthroplasty has never been evaluated. The purpose of this study was to compare the reconstruction of two different shaped defects in reversed shoulder arthroplasty. METHODS Two groups (ten Sawbone scapulae each) of oblique- and rectangular-shaped glenoid defects were tested biomechanically. On the anterior half of the glenoid, bony defects (rectangular and oblique shaped) were prepared and reconstructed subsequently with a graft and reversed shoulder arthroplasty. As a control group, Sawbones without glenoid deficiency were used. In addition, these tests were reproduced in cadavers. FINDINGS In Sawbones, no significant difference in initial stability was found between the two groups (p>0.05). Additionally, in the cadaver tests no significant difference was found between the groups with different defects (p>0.05). During the preparation, macroscopic loosening of the oblique bone grafts was found in three cases after the performance of the reversed shoulder arthroplasty due to the lack of medial support. The localization of the highest micromotion were measured primarily between the scapula bone and the graft compared to the measured micromotions between glenoid implant and the graft. INTERPRETATION If the oblique-shaped bone graft was secured under the baseplate, the rectangular defect preparation did not show a significantly higher primary stability. However, the advantage of medial support in rectangular defects leads to more stability while placing the bone graft and baseplate during the surgical technique and should therefore be considered a preferable option.

Abstract
Rim defects of the anterior glenoid cavity are a main reason for residual shoulder instability after traumatic dislocation of the shoulder. These defects can be the result of a glenoid rim fracture or chronic glenoid erosion after repeated shoulder dislocations. Treatment concepts for these entities are entirely different. While in the acute fracture situation glenoid rim fractures can be treated operatively or non-operatively, augmentation of the anterior glenoid for stabilization of the shoulder should be considered if the defect exceeds 15-25% of the anterior glenoid. The purpose of this article is to summarize the diagnostics and indications for treatment of glenoid rim fractures. Radiological assessment and options for augmentation are reviewed for both acute fractures as well as chronic instability following an anterior glenoid rim defect.

Abstract
AIMS Our aim was to investigate the outcomes of patients with a displaced fracture of the glenoid fossa who are treated conservatively. There is little information in the literature about the treatment of these rare injuries non-operatively. PATIENTS AND METHODS We reviewed 24 patients with a mean age of 52 years (19 to 81) at a mean of 5.6 years (11 months to 18 years) after the injury. RESULTS At final follow-up, the mean Constant and Murley score was 79 points (18 to 98); the mean Western Ontario Shoulder Instability Index score (WOSI) was 77% (12 to 100) and the mean Rowe score was 93 points (50 to 100). Fractures with little intra-articular displacement (≤ 3 mm) had an uneventful outcome. Those with intra-articular displacement of ≤ 3 mm had a significant better mean Constant and Murley score than those with displacement of ≥ 5 mm and/or a fracture gap of ≥ 5 mm. Poor clinical results such as nonunion and post-traumatic osteoarthritis were associated with displaced or angulated glenoid fragments and significant intra-articular displacement. CONCLUSION Glenoid fossa fractures with displacement of ≥ 5 mm should be treated surgically if the patient's condition allows. Displacement and angulation can lead to nonunion and a poor outcome if the degree of displacement results in a persistent fracture gap in the glenoid fossa or if the angulation of fragments leads to malunion.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Benign subcutaneous emphysema caused by a valve mechanism and subsequent air entrapment is rare. Less invasive treatment can be performed, but acute life-threatening infectious diseases should be ruled out before treatment; these include gas gangrene or other infections caused by gas producing bacteria. PATIENTS AND METHODS We retrospectively report on three patients with chronic wounds who developed benign subcutaneous extremity emphysema caused by valve mechanisms with subsequent air entrapment. Patient 1 had a chronic wound at his stump after a lower leg amputation years ago. Due to weight loading and unloading of the lower leg prosthesis while walking, air was sucked in and triggered subcutaneous emphysema. Patient 2 had a persistent fistula at his lateral thigh due to a chronic osteomyelitis and Girdlestone hip. Caused by the up-and-down movements of the femur during walking air was entrapped and led to emphysema. Patient 3 had a drain in his knee for development of a chronic fistula because of a persistent infection of his knee prosthesis. In extension of the knee, the drain was clamped in and air was entrapped during knee flexion and then seeped into the surrounding subcutaneous tissue. No signs of infection in the blood samples were present in two of the patients. None of the patients had fever and no gas producing bacteria were identified in the microbiological cultures. Only multisensitive Staphylococcus aureus was present in the wounds of patients 1 and 2. RESULTS Two patients were treated surgically. One patient was treated by fasciotomy plus debridement and irrigation of the wound. A second patient was treated by debridement of the Girdlestone hip, air evacuation and insertion of a drain. No sign of infection - such as necrosis or gangreneous tissue - was seen during these operations. In patient 3, the drain was removed in flexion of the knee and air was removed from the subcutaneous tissue through a separate, sterile needle punction. CONCLUSION There have been few published reports on benign subcutaneous emphysema caused by a valve mechanism. No standardised treatments exist, as it is initially difficult to distinguish this condition from an acute life-threatening infection. If a patient has a chronic wound at the location of the endoprosthesis or stump prosthesis after amputation, the possibility of benign air entrapment should be routinely considered.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION In recent years, new angle-stable plate implants with polyaxial screw direction were developed with the aim of an improved treatment of displaced 3- and 4-part fractures of the proximal humerus. There are only a few studies available about polyaxial implants in the treatment of 3- and 4-part proximal humerus fractures. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate clinical results and complications of open reduction and internal fixation of displaced 3- and 4-part fractures using a polyaxial plate. PATIENTS AND METHODS Within 51 months, 105 patients with a displaced 3- or 4-part fracture of the proximal humerus were treated with a polyaxial locking plate. The complications were evaluated and the Constant & Murley score was assessed and correlated with patient satisfaction ("very satisfied" to "not satisfied"). Additionally, the results were compared with those of monoaxial plates from the literature. Furthermore, the operative experience of the surgeons at the time of surgery was correlated with the objective results of the patients. RESULTS 65 patients (average age: 71.3 ± 11.4 years; average follow-up: 19,6 ± 9,8 month [10-44 month]) with a displaced 3- or 4-part fracture were re-examined retrospectively (female: n = 54; male: n = 11). Overall, there were 27 3-part fractures and 38 4-part fractures. The Constant and Murley Score was on average 62.1 ± 16.5 points and the complication rate was 26 %. The most frequent complication was screw perforation through the humeral head. Patient satisfaction with clinical outcome was high within the whole study group. 40 % of the patients were "very satisfied" with their shoulder function, 29 % were "satisfied" ("fair": 12 %, "not satisfied": 19 %). Additionally, the operative experience of the surgeons influenced the final clinical result. CONCLUSION In comparison to the literature we could not delineate better clinical outcomes or lower complication rates with polyaxial implants compared to monoaxial plates in 3- and 4-part fractures. Nevertheless, the majority of patients were satisfied with the clinical result in the context of age-related shoulder function. In addition, a close correlation could be detected between the degree of satisfaction and the objectively measured shoulder function. A high level of operative experience is required to avoid typical complications and to achieve a good clinical result.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The sales of recreational trampolines have increased during the past few years. Severe injuries are associated in part with trampoline sport in the domestic setting. Therefore, this study was conducted to confirm the hypothesis of an increase in trampoline-related injuries in conjunction with the increasing sales of recreational trampolines and to find out what kind of injuries are most frequent in this context. METHODS Between 01/1999 and 09/2013 all trampoline-related injuries of children (0-16 years of age) were assessed retrospectively. Only those cases were evaluated which described with certainty a trampoline-associated trauma. The fractures were considered separately and assigned to specific localisations. Additionally, accidents at home were differentiated from institutional accidents. RESULTS Within the past 13 years and 9 months trampoline-related injuries were seen in 195 infants. Fractures were present in 83 cases (42 %). The average age was 10 ± 3.4 years (range: 2-16 years). Within first half of the observed time period (7½ years; 01/1999 to 06/2006) 73 cases were detected with a significantly increasing number of injuries up to 122 cases between 07/2006 and 09/2013 (7 years, 3 months), which corresponds to an increase of 67 % (p = 0,028). The vast majority of these injuries happened in the domestic setting (90 %, n = 175), whereas only 10 % (n = 20) of the traumas occurred in public institutions. In 102 children (52 %) the lower extremity was affected and in 51 patients (26 %) the upper extremity was involved (head/spine/pelvis: n = 42, 22 %). The upper extremity was primarily affected by fractures and dislocations (n = 38, 76 %). At the upper extremity there were more injuries requiring surgery in contrast to the lower extremity (n = 11) or cervical spine (n = 1). CONCLUSION The underlying data show a significant increase of trampoline-related injuries within the past years. The upper extremity is the second most affected after the lower extremity, but is more associated with fractures in contrast to other localisations and had to be operated on the most. Because of the increase of recreational trampolines within past years an increase of trampoline-associated injuries has to be expected in the future. The security guidelines should be followed exactly and the infants should be under supervision.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It is still not clear which method is the most efficient for treating primary traumatic anterior shoulder dislocation. Immobilization in external rotation has become increasingly discussed within the last 10 years. The aim of this study was to evaluate the rate of recurrence and clinical outcome of the immobilization in external rotation after primary traumatic anterior dislocation within a midterm period of 5 years. Additionally, a summary of literature is given according to the present knowledge of this issue. METHODS From May 2004 to May 2006, 28 patients with primary traumatic anterior shoulder dislocations were included in a prospective MRI-controlled study. After a follow-up of 5 years, the recurrence rate and clinical outcomes of the patients were evaluated using clinical scores (Constant and Murley score, Western Ontario Shoulder Instability Index, Rowe score). RESULTS After 5 years, 26 patients (93 %; males, n = 25; female, n = 1; mean age, 29.3 years) were interviewed concerning re-dislocations. In the meantime, four patients (15 %) experienced a re-dislocation (ø 12.2 months) after the end of the immobilization. Overall, 21 patients (75 %) were included in a clinical follow-up (CM score: ø 92.8 points; Western Ontario Shoulder Instability Index: ø 87 %; Rowe score (in 17 patients): ø 94.2 points). Upon clinical examination, unidirectional anterior instability was found in one patient, which corresponds to an overall instability rate of 19 % within the examined patient population including the re-dislocations. CONCLUSIONS Immobilization in external rotation shows satisfactory results after 5 years in regard to recurrence and instability rates and clinical outcomes. The data show that with immobilization in external rotation, re-dislocations occur within the first 2 years.

Abstract
The case of a 61-year-old male with posterior dislocation of the right shoulder joint is presented and a new technique for closed reduction of posterior locked shoulder dislocation is described. The technique involves four steps: in step 1 a constant traction is applied on the injured arm, in step 2 the arm is internally rotated and in steps 3 and 4 the second arm of the physician is used as a lever arm to lateralize and ventralize the shoulder. Lateralization and ventralization of the humeral head are essential to engage the humeral head and to pass it around the glenoid during reduction. Steps 3 and 4 are performed simultaneously. In the presented case the patient suffered a traumatic shoulder dislocation with a rim fracture of the glenoid. After reduction the shoulder was stable and conservative treatment was performed. A 2 year follow-up examination revealed a pain-free and stable shoulder with free range of motion and an Oxford instability score of 48 points. The described reduction technique for posterior locked shoulder dislocation is a simple and gentle technique, which can be performed easily by one person.Presentation of a reduction technique for locked posterior shoulder dislocation. Constant traction and internal rotation is performed for engaging the locked humeral head. After disengaging the humeral head the reduction is performed by using the arm of the physician as a lever arm.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The surgical treatment of displaced proximal humeral fractures (ORIF) is a perpetual challenge to the surgeon. For this reason, the principle of polyaxiality was developed to provide an improved primary stability of the fracture through better anchorage of the screws, especially in osteoporotic bone. The aim of this study was to present clinical results with the polyaxial locking plate in the operative treatment of proximal humerus fractures in order to determine whether the technique of polyaxiality leads to better functional outcome and lower complication rates in comparison to monoaxial plates in the literature. PATIENTS AND METHODS Seventy-three patients with displaced proximal humeral fractures were treated surgically with the polyaxial locking Suture Plate™ (Arthrex(®)) between 03/2007 and 06/2009. Fifty-two of the patients (mean age, 69.9 ± 12.1) were included in a radiographical and clinical examination using the Constant score (CS) and the Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand score (DASH). RESULTS The follow-up examinations were on average 13.9 ± 4.5 months (10-27 months) after surgical treatment. The mean CS of the patients was 66.0 ± 13.7 points, the age- and gender-related CS was 90.9% ± 20.0% and the mean DASH score was 23.8 ± 19.8 points for the injured side. The patients with a nearly anatomical reduction of their fracture (n = 13) reached a significantly higher CS (75.1 ± 8.5; p = 0.004) and DASH-score (13.6 ± 11.6; p = 0.043) and none of these patients had a complication. The complications were identified in 12 (23.1%) cases, 5 of which involved loss of reduction. All of these 5 cases were lacking of initial medial column support and 4 of which were type C2.3 AO-Classification. CONCLUSION The data show that the combination of angular stability with the possibility of variable polyaxial screw direction is a good concept for reduction and fixation of displaced proximal humeral fractures, but anatomical reduction and medial support remain important preconditions for a good outcome. However, a significantly lower rate of complications or better clinical outcome than that reported in the literature could not be found.

Abstract
The clinical presentation of synovitis with rice bodies is found in a few systemic diseases as accompanying manifestations within joints or joint-associated bursa. A 79-year old patient was examined, who had complained of pain and swelling in the left shoulder for a long time. Sonography identified multiple spindle-shaped joint bodies within the joint effusion. MRI showed a large amount of so-called rice bodies with joint effusion in the shoulder and a massive destruction of the rotator cuff of the left shoulder. The histological examination showed a tuberculosis-specific inflammatory response with giant cells and epithelioid granulomas and molecular biological detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Within a few months after surgical removal of the rice bodies from the joint space and the bursa a relapse occurred with repeated synovial effusion followed by a renewed surgical removal of the joint bodies. We describe the rare case of a patient with unilateral musculoskeletal manifestation of tuberculosis presented as synovitis of the left shoulder and the adjacent bursa with rice bodies and accelerated growth trend without coexisting active tuberculosis or tuberculosis in the previous history. Furthermore, a brief summary of the literature is given.
