Zusammenfassung

Der Schultergelenkersatz bei jungen Patienten <50 (55) Jahre stellt hinsichtlich Funktion und Endoprothesenstandzeit eine große Herausforderung dar. Diverse Studien zeigen, dass gerade bei jungen Patienten Schultertotalendoprothesen (Schulter-TEPs) im Vergleich zu Hemiendoprothesen zu besseren klinischen Resultaten hinsichtlich Schmerzreduktion, Funktion und längeren Standzeiten führen. Insbesondere die gängigen Humerusersatzköpfe aus Cobalt-Chrom (CoCr) können bei den Hemiendoprothesen zu einem frühzeitigen Glenoidverschleiß mit medialer Protrusion sowie konsekutiven Schmerzen und Funktionsverlust führen. Ob neue Implantatmaterialien, wie z. B. Pyrocarbon, Aluminiumoxid-Keramik (AL2O3) oder Polycarbonat-Urethan (PCU), hier den Glenoidverbrauch reduzieren und somit eine Verbesserung der Funktion und Standzeiten erbringen, konnte gegenwärtig zwar in biomechanischen Studien gezeigt, in klinischen Studien jedoch noch nicht eindeutig bewiesen werden. Bereits eine einzige Ablösung der Subskapularissehne (SSC) im Rahmen einer Arthrotomie und insbesondere wiederholte Arthrotomien führen zu SSC-Insuffizienzen, weshalb schon bei der Erstimplantation langfristig gedacht werden sollte. Dies stellt fokale Gelenkersatzoperationen bei größeren Knorpelschäden in Frage, da hier Revisionsoperationen zu erwarten sind. Neue anatomisch-elliptisch geformte Humerusimplantate sowie auch zementierte Inlay- oder wenig auftragende zementfrei einwachsende metallische Glenoidimplantate ohne glenohumerale Offset-Vergrößerung bei Schulter-TEPs erbringen möglicherweise eine Verbesserung der Endoprothesenstandzeiten und Funktion gerade bei jungen aktiven Patienten. Langzeitstudien hierzu stehen allerdings noch aus.

Abstract

Shoulder joint replacement in young patients <50 (55) years old is a great challenge with respect to shoulder function and prosthesis survival, as both are limited. Several studies have shown that total shoulder arthroplasty leads to better clinical results compared to partial endoprostheses concerning pain relief, shoulder function and implant survival, especially in young patients. The cobalt chrome (CoCr) implants commonly used for humeral head replacement in hemiarthroplasty in particular, can cause premature attrition of the glenoid cartilage and bone with medial protrusion and subsequent pain and loss of function. Whether new implant materials, such as as pyrocarbon, aluminium oxide ceramics (Al2O3) or polycarbonate urethane (PCU) can reduce glenoid attrition with a subsequent improvement of function and increased survival of the implant, has been proven in biomechanical studies but not yet in clinical studies. Even a single detachment of the subscapularis tendon during arthrotomy and especially with repeated arthrotomy leads to subscapularis tendon insufficiency. Therefore, even during the primary implantation long-term consideration should be given to partial joint replacements, which are questionable in larger chondral lesions because revisions are to be expected. New elliptical anatomically designed humeral implants and also cemented inlay components and low-profile cementless metallic glenoid implants with a good bony ingrowth without glenohumeral offset enlargement in total shoulder replacement could lead to longer prostheses survival and better shoulder function, particularly in young active patients; however, long-term results of clinical studies are currently not available.
