Abstract

Focal chondral and osteochondral lesions of the humeral head, avascular necrosis, Hill-Sachs and reverse Hill-Sachs lesions, in a biologically young patient (Age < 50 years) and in patients with high functional requirements.

Arthroscopically assisted (Partial Eclipse™, Arthrex) or open (HemiCAP™, Arthrosurface) partial resurfacing arthroplasty of the humeral head. The prosthesis is composed of two components, a fixation screw (taper) and the actual resurfacing component, the posterior surface of which should ensure osteointegration.

  • Symptom specific history: Etiology, Symptoms, functional demands, subjective instability, metal allergy, previous treatment modalities (intraarticular Injections, e. g. cortisone), previous surgeries, relevant concomitant diseases (e. g. rheumatoid arthritis)

  • Symptom-specific examination: range of motion (active/passive), painful motion, tenderness and pain on compression, function of the shoulder girdle muscles, stability and Impingement tests.

Evaluation of the peripheral nerves (particularly the axillary nerve).
