The management of glenohumeral arthritis in the young patient
remains a challenging problem for the treating clinician. The
activity demands seen in such patient populations require a unique
understanding of what the goals of treatment are to ensure
satisfied and sustainable outcomes. In addition, younger patients
have a longer life expectancy and more active lifestyles, which can
negatively impact the longevity of arthroplasty implants that are
traditionally used in the older patient population. As such, the
discovery and implementation of novel and anatomy preserving
techniques continue to evolve to meet the demand of younger
patients without compromising their outcomes. This practical text
serves to educate the treating clinician on how to recognize and
categorize glenohumeral osteoarthritis in young patients and offers
insight into the various operative and non-operative treatment
options. Opening chapters examine the prevalence and burden,
etiology and evaluation of the condition, followed by chapters
discussing the current non-invasive and non-operative approaches to
treatment, such as injection therapy. The main complement of
chapters are detailed descriptions of surgical approaches, from
arthroscopy and cartilage reconstruction to total and reverse
shoulder arthroplasty, stemless approaches and arthrodesis. A final
chapter expands on future management strategies. Radiographs and
intraoperative photos are provided to enhance the text. Presenting
the state of the art for this increasingly common condition,
Glenohumeral Osteoarthritis in the Young Patient is an ideal
resource for orthopedic surgeons and sports medicine specialists
alike.
