Incidence of peripheral nerve injury in revision total shoulder arthroplasty: An intraoperative nerve monitoring study
Journal of Shoulder and Elbow Surgery Oct 23, 2020
Patel MS, Wilent WB, Gutman MJ, et al. - This study was intended to present intraoperative nerve monitoring (IONM) data and nerve injury rates of a series of revision total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA). Researchers conducted a retrospective cohort review of consecutive individuals who had undergone revision TSA between January 2016-March 2020. The study enrolled a sum of 44 shoulders in 38 patients with a mean age of 63.2 years (standard deviation, 13.0). The data exhibited that no (0%) patients had a postoperative major or minor nerve injury, and four (9.1%) patients complained of postoperative distal peripheral neuropathy in 44 surgeries. The data exhibit that through the use of IONM, the rate of minor and major nerve injuries can be reduced in revision shoulder arthroplasty.
