چکیده

Objective: Brachial Plexus Birth palsy usually result in Shoulder deformities lead to poor function, loss of quality of life and pain. The purpose of our study is to examine the results of combined in one step shoulder soft tissues reconstruction and triangle tilt procedure on improvement of shoulder function and development. Method: A major treatment goal in children with obstetric brachial plexus palsy (OBPP) is to obtain optimal range of shoulder motion through improved glenohumeral alignment. In our study (34 cases of shoulder sequelae in brachial plexus birth palsy) medial rotation contracture with shoulder subluxation or dislocation and SHEAR deformity, mean age (5.4 year), mean follow up (31.2 months). We combine in one step anterior shoulder release (subscapularis release , coracohumeral and coracoacromial ligament release , pectoralis major lengthening , latissimusdorsi and teres major transfer to teres minor and the triangle tilt procedure , establishing glenohumeral congruency is the target , repositioning of the glenohumeral joint to maximize alignment does not only improve function and growth, but has been provided encourage joint remodeling Results: 34 cases of ( OBPP ) with medial rotation contracture with shoulder subluxation or dislocation and SHEAR deformity , mean age ( 5.4 year ) , mean follow up ( 31.2 months ) combined in one step shoulder soft tissues reconstruction and triangle tilt resulted in significant increase in overall modified Mallet score ( 11.2 ) to ( 19.7 ) , p value ( < 0.0001 ) and significant increase in mean glenoid version ( 17.2 ) to ( 4 ) , p value ( < 0.0001 ) , mean percentage of humeral head anterior ( 8 ) to ( 47.8 ) , p value ( < 0.0001 ) and mean scapular elevation ( 20.7 ) to ( 7. 4 ) , p value ( < 0.0001 ) , difference in abduction and scapular elevation were significantly correlated with age , for the difference in abduction ( r = -0.4 , p = 0.0029 ) and for the difference in scapular elevation ( r = -0.4 , p = 0.0045 ) . Conclusion: statistically significant improvement in shoulder function and radiological outcomes after our study (combined in one step shoulder soft tissues reconstruction and Triangle tilt) is good method for patients who have developed a medial rotation contracture with shoulder subluxation or dislocation and SHEAR deformity. Anterior shoulder release addresses the contracted Anterior structure of shoulder joint so relocate the humeral head in anterior glenoid fossa, the triangle tilt procedure addresses medial rotation and glenohumeral deformity, so in our study we can manage late sequlae of shoulder in OBBP.

Improvements after mod Quad and triangle tilt revision surgical procedures in obstetric brachial plexus palsy

AIM To compare outcomes of our revision surgical operations in obstetric brachial plexus palsy (OBPP) patients to results of conventional operative procedures at other institutions. METHODS We analyzed our OBPP data and identified 10 female and 10 male children aged 2.0 to 11.8 years (average age 6.5 years), who had prior conventional surgical therapies at other clinics. Of the 20 patients, 1...

Successful Outcome of Triangle Tilt as Revision Surgery in a Pediatric Obstetric Brachial Plexus Patient with Multiple Previous Operations

Introduction. Obstetric brachial plexus injury (OBPI) occurs during the process of labor and childbirth. OBPI has been reported to be associated with shoulder dystocia, macrosomia, and breech delivery. Its occurrence in uncomplicated delivery is possible as well. Case Presentation. The patient in the present report is a 6.5-year-old girl, who suffered a severe brachial plexus injury at birth an...

Surgical correction of the medial rotation contracture in obstetric brachial plexus palsy.

The medial rotation contracture caused by weak external rotation secondary to obstetric brachial plexus injury leads to deformation of the bones of the shoulder. Scapular hypoplasia, elevation and rotation deformity are accompanied by progressive dislocation of the humeral head. Between February and August 2005, 44 children underwent a new surgical procedure called the 'triangle tilt' operation...

Triangle Tilt Surgery in an Older Pediatric Patient With Obstetric Brachial Plexus Injury

Children with an obstetric brachial plexus injury have an elevated risk of long-term impairment if they do not fully recover by the age of 3 months. Persistent nerve damage leads to muscle abnormalities and progressive muscle and bone deformities. Several procedures have been described to treat this severe deformity. We have demonstrated the benefits of the triangle tilt procedure in young chil...

Humeral Retroversion in Children with Shoulder Internal Rotation Contractures Secondary to Upper-Trunk Neonatal Brachial Plexus Palsy.

BACKGROUND The most common sequela of neonatal brachial plexus palsy is an internal rotation contracture of the shoulder that impairs function and leads to skeletal deformation of the glenohumeral joint. Treatment options include release, transfers, and humeral osteotomy, all ultimately striving for better function through increased external rotation. Prior studies have shown that neonatal brac...
