Pullout strength of screws used for baseplate fixation in reverse shoulder arthroplasty: a cadaveric study
Background
Previous studies have shown that bicortical screw fixation is biomechanically superior to unicortical screw fixation. However, no data are available on the pullout strength of screws used for glenoid fixation in reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA). The purpose of this study was to determine the differences in biomechanical strength between unicortical and bicortical fixation of the baseplate screws in RSA.
Methods
Both scapulae from 14 fresh frozen cadavers (7 men, 7 women) were used to compare the pullout strength of the superior and inferior screws used with the Trabecular Metal Reverse Shoulder System (Zimmer Biomet, Warsaw, IN, USA). Screws were inserted unicortically in one scapula of each specimen and bicortically in the other scapula. The pullout strength of each screw was evaluated using a universal testing machine.
Results
Mean pullout strength of the superior screws was 716.5 ± 300.4 N for unicortical fixation and 1241.3 ± 475.9 N for bicortical fixation, and that of the inferior screws was 272.3 ± 125.8 N and 666.2 ± 481.7 N, respectively. Pullout strength of the superior and inferior screws was significantly higher for bicortical fixation than for unicortical fixation. Pullout strength of the superior screws was 854.2 ± 314.0 N in unicortical fixation and 1374.7 ± 466.8 N in bicortical fixation in men, and 578.7 ± 209.6 N and 1107.8 ± 446.5 N, respectively, in women; the pullout strength of the inferior screws was 285.5 ± 139.0 N and 922.3 ± 549.5 N, respectively, in men, and 259.2 ± 109.5 N and 410.2 ± 176.4 N in women. Although the pullout strength was higher in men, the difference was not statistically significant, except for inferior bicortical screws. The ratio of the pullout strength for an inferior screw to that of a superior screw was 0.48. The ratio of the pullout strength for unicortical fixation to that of bicortical fixation was 0.58 for superior screws and 0.41 for inferior screws. The pullout strength of screws in women was 0.69 of that in men.
Conclusion
Bicortical screw fixation is stronger than unicortical screw fixation for the glenoid component in RSA, as in other regions. Pullout strength of the superior screws was significantly higher than that of the inferior screws in both unicortical and bicortical fixation. Fixation of inferior bicortical screws was impaired more significantly in women than in men. Therefore, bicortical fixation of the inferior screw is recommended for women and for patients with poor bone quality.
