- W3135687079 abstract "BackgroundHistorically, scapulothoracic fusion (STF) is performed using steel wire and plate construct fixation. The purpose of this study is to report a recent fusion achieved through ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene-reinforced suture fixation as well as to perform a systematic literature review of techniques, fusion rates, complications, and reoperation.MethodsPatient data were gathered from chart review and clinical encounters. For the review, MEDLINE, Embase, and Ovid databases were queried for STF cases. Thirty articles reporting on 386 fusion procedures were included.ResultsIncluding this patient, 5 of 387 (1.3%) STFs have been attempted with fiber suture. Fusion rates of metal-only constructs is 90.8% (346 of 381) with 11.3% (43 of 381) requiring wire removal or trimming because of symptomatic hardware and 7% (27 of 381) causing a postoperative pneumothorax. Although a small sample size, all fiber-suture constructs have achieved union without implant removal and without pneumothorax development. In this patient, fusion was determined radiographically at 6 months with substantial improvement in pain level and function.ConclusionScapulothoracic fusion has benefit to patients to have failed other management options for winged scapula, most commonly those with neurologic trauma or facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy. With advancements in surgical options, fiber-suture offers an alternative to steel wire to achieve fusion. Further cases with longer term follow-up are needed to determine if significant differences in outcomes exist between constructs.
