Chronic lateral trochanteric pain
- abductor tendon tendonitis
- trochanteric bursitis
Women 40 - 60 years old
? repetitive friction of iliotibial tract over GT
Pain over upper lateral thigh with activity
- often related to hip flexion
Pigmented Villo-Nodular Synovitis
- benign inflammatory process that arises in synovial tissues
- contains significant amounts of hemosiderin
Age: 20 - 50
Sex: M > F
A. Diffuse
- throughout joint synovium
- more difficult to treat / excise fully
Described by Neer / modified by Rockwood
1. Anterior acromioplasty
- resect anterior acromion back to ACJ
- prevent impingement in flexion
2. Resect anteroinferior acromion
Position
- beach chair
- mark anatomy
- limb draped free
Repair of the anterior capsule & avulsed labrum to anterior glenoid
- anatomic repair
Usually combined with a capsular shift
Bony bankart > 25% glenoid
Position
- beach chair position
- arm free
- Mayfield head ring / Spyder and Tmax
Arthroscopic
- intra-articular
- suprapectoral
Open
- suprapectoral
- subpectoral
Concept
Indications have narrowed
- due to success of shoulder arthroplasty
1. Chronic infections of GHJ
2. Stabilization in paralytic disorders
3. Post-traumatic brachial plexus palsy
4. Salvage of failed GHJ Arthroplasty
- may need bone graft procedures
5. Arthritic diseases unsuitable for arthroplasty / young patient
Post-traumatic (type III clavicle fractures)
Idiopathic
1. OA with osteophytes
- contribute to impingement
2. Osteolysis with resorption & gross osteoporosis
