Abstract
Objective
To evaluate the correlation of the glenoid track and glenoidal bone loss with the recurrence dislocation rate and the Rowe score.
Methods
Retrospective study that assessed the glenoid track and glenoidal bone loss through preoperative magnetic resonance imaging. Patients undergoing primary arthroscopic repair of anterior Bankart were included. Patients with glenoidal bone loss greater than 21%, rotator cuff tear, scapular waist fracture, and posterior or multidirectional instability were not included. Rowe score were the primary outcome, and the recurrence rate was the secondary outcome.
Results
One hundred and two patients were included. Postoperative recurrent instability was reported by 8 patients (7.8%). Four patients (50%) in the group with recurrence presented glenoidal bone loss greater than 13.5% against 24 (25.5%) in the group without recurrence (p= 0.210), with a negative predictive value of 94.6%. Three patients (37.5%) in the recurrence group were considered off-track, against 13 (13.8%) in the group without recurrence (p= 0.109), with a negative predictive value of 94.2%. Patients with absolute glenoid track value ≤ 1.5 mm had worse results in relation to the recurrence group, with 6 patients (75%) presenting recurrence (p= 0.003).
Conclusion
Off-track injury and glenoidal bone loss greater than the subcritical are not related to the recurrence rate and Rowe score, despite the high negative predictive value. The cut of the absolute value of the glenoid track at 1.5 mm had a significant relationship with the recurrence rate.
