J SHOULDER ELBOW SURG , 2001, vol. 10, n° 5, p. 464-469 Doc n°: 102873 Localisation : Documentation IRR Descripteurs : DD361 - TRAITEMENT CHIRURGICAL - EPAULE So that patients with degenerative glenohumeral joint disease who wish to consider total shoulder arthroplasty will be better informed, we sought to document the magnitude and durability of the improvement in shoulder function after this procedure. The function of 124 shoulders with primary degenerative joint disease was documented by patient self-assessment with the Simple Shoulder Test before and sequentially after total shoulder arthroplasty performed with a standardized technique. Patients reported that they could perform 3.8 +/- 0.3 (SEM) of the 12 Simple Shoulder Test functions before surgery. The total number of performable functions was consistent at different follow-up intervals: 8.0 +/- 0.4 at 6 months, 9.5 +/- 0.4 at 1 year, 10.0 +/- 0.3 at 2 years, 9.2 +/- 0.4 at 3 years, 9.6 +/- 0.4 at 4 years, and 10.0 +/- 0.4 at 5 years. We conclude that total shoulder arthroplasty can provide substantial and durable improvement in shoulder function. Langue : ANGLAIS Tiré à part : OUI Identifiant basis : 2001219341 |
