Background: Several studies have reported proximal bone resorption in stemless and press-fit short-stem humeral implants for anatomic total shoulder arthroplasty. The purpose of this biomechanical study was to evaluate implant and cortical bone micromotion of a cortical rim-supported stemless implant compared to a press-fit short stem implant during cyclic loading and static compression testing
Methods: Thirty cadaveric humeri were assigned to 3 groups based on a previously performed density analysis, adopting the metaphyseal and epiphyseal and inferior supporting bone densities for multivariate analyses. Implant fixation was performed in stemless implant in low bone density (SL-L, n = 10) or short stem implant in low bone density (Stem-L, n = 10) and in stemless implant in high bone density (SL-H, n = 10). Cyclic loading with 220 N, 520 N, and 820 N over 1000 cycles at 1.5 Hz was performed with a constant valley load of 25 N. Optical recording allowed for spatial implant tracking and quantification of cortical bone deformations in the medial calcar bone region. Implant micromotion was measured as rotational and translational displacement. Load-to-failure testing was performed at a rate of 1.5 mm/s with ultimate load and stiffness measured
Results: The SL-H group demonstrated significantly reduced implant micromotion compared to both low-density groups (SL-L: P = .014; Stem-L: P = .031). The Stem-L group showed significantly reduced rotational motion and variance in the test results at the 820-N load level compared to the SL-L group (equal variance: P = .012). Implant micromotion and reversible bone deformation were significantly affected by increasing load (P < .001), metaphyseal cancellous (P = .023, P = .013), and inferior supporting bone density (P = .016, P = .023). Absolute cortical bone deformation was significantly increased with stemless implants in lower densities and percentage reversible bone deformation was significantly higher for the SL-H group (21 ± 7%) compared to the Stem-L group (12 ± 6%, P = .017)
Conclusion: A cortical rim-supported stemless implant maintained proximally improved dynamic bone loading in variable bone densities compared to a press-fit short stem implant. Biomechanical time-zero implant micromotion in lower bone densities was comparable between short stem and stemless implants at rehabilitation load levels (220 N, 520 N), but with higher cyclic stability and reduced variability for stemmed implantation at daily peak loads (820 N)
