Rationale of the AEQUALIS™ Press-Fit Prosthesis
Glenohumeral arthritis is characterized by persistent pain, loss of glenohumeral motion and loss of glenohumeral joint space.
Prosthetic replacement of the glenohumeral joint seeks to relieve pain and restore normal kinematics and biomechanics.
Due to the relatively fixed geometry of first and second generation shoulder prosthesis, the possibilities to reproduce the normal kinematics of the glenohumeral joint are limited and often result in abnormal or reverse scapulo-humeral rhythm.
By anatomically reconstructing the proximal humerus, normal kinematics and biomechanics can be restored allowing for normal scapulo-humeral rhythm. Due to the highly variable anatomy of the proximal humerus, it is necessary to utilize a prosthesis, which takes into account the normal spherical shape of the humeral head along with the variable inclination, retroversion and combined medial and posterior offsets of the humeral head replacement in order to adapt the prosthesis to the individual patient’s anatomy.
The AEQUALIS™ prosthesis is the first third generation shoulder prosthesis. It is not only modular without the gap between the collar and the head, but also adaptable to allow restoration of the patient’s healthy anatomy and maintain the normal superior profile*.
The AEQUALIS™ Press-Fit Shoulder Prosthesis is specifically designed for long term stability of the humeral component. Its stepped surface geometry maximizes bone support for an optimal primary fixation and secondary fixation. The unique instrumentation allows compacting of the metaphyseal bone to give added support to the prosthesis and to prevent distal migration. Compaction grafting along the calcar increases the press-fit helping to avoid postoperative subsidence.
The stem is available in five diameters. 7, 9, 11, 13 and 15 mm. Four neck angles of 125, 130, 135 and 140 degrees allow the humeral implant to be better adapted to the humeral resection surface.
Ten articular heads are available, corresponding to the anatomical variations encountered in practice. Diameter and thickness are related, each corresponding to the anatomical variations.
For the largest three sizes, 50, 52 and 54 millimeters diameters, two thicknesses are available.
It is possible to reproduce the combined offset of the articular surface, medial and posterior offsets, by means of an original eccentric dial system.

Surgical Technique
1. Preoperative planning
• Four plain shoulder A-P x-rays: neutral, internal rotation, external rotation and axillary.
• CT Scan for the most accurate assessment of glenoid version.
• Arthrography with contrast to confirm integrity of the rotator cuff if there is a clinical question about the cuff integrity.
2. Patient positioning
General anesthesia modified beach chair position (Figure 1).

3. Delto-pectoral approach
An incision is made from the coracoid along the Deltopectoral groove, lateral to the axillary fold to avoid a postoperative contracture (Figure 2).
The Delto-pectoral interval is developed (Figure 3).

A modified Mason-Allen interlocking suture is placed at the top corner of the subscapularis adjacent to the rotator interval (Figure 8).
After opening the rotator interval, the anterior subscapularis is incised 1 cm medial to its insertion on the lesser tuberosity. Then, with a progressive rotation of the arm, the inferior capsule is released up to the posterior aspect of the humeral head (Figure 9). The release of the upper pectoralis and latissimus dorsi tendons facilitates the exposure and release of the inferior glenohumeral capsule.
Superior arthrotomy: the coraco-humeral ligament is preserved.

Superior part of subscapularis
The inferior release is a key step for adequate glenoid release.

An anterior capsulotomy is performed with a release of the middle and inferior glenohumeral ligament to mobilize the muscle and produce a long flap of subscapularis which allows tension-free reinsertion following the procedure, regardless of the position of the arm (Figure 10).
With these adequate releases, the humeral head is dislocated into the delto-pectoral interval by abduction of the arm progressive external rotation extension. In cases of severe restriction of external rotation (0° or less), it is recommended to release more of the pectoralis insertion.
4. Humeral head osteotomy
All osteophytes are carefully trimmed from the humeral head. It is recommended to use a curved osteotome to separate the interval between the osteophyte and the cortical bone.
The osteotome is placed inferiorly and directed upwards. The goal is to identify the exact capsular insertion at the anatomic neck.
If additional exposure is necessary to visualize the superior articular margin, a curved awl or sharp Hohmann is placed under the long head of the biceps and through the supraspinatus attachment to retract both. The cut is then marked with a bovie.

5. Reaming the humeral shaft
Accurate visualization of the plane through which the humerus is cut (Figure 14) allows the hinge point to be located. Typically, the entrance point into the humeral canal is 3 mm medial from this point (to prevent damage to the greater tuberosity). The hinge point is defined as the intersection of the proximal metaphyseal humeral axis and the highest point of the cut described previously (Figure 15).
The arm is placed in extreme external rotation, with the elbow towards the body utilizing careful progressive reaming to avoid the risk of a spiral fracture.

1. Apply the guide on the humerus as shown.
2. Insert the pins. 3. Remove the cutting guide and rotate 180°
4. Reposition the guide on the pins.

6. Choice of humeral inclination and retroversion
Once reaming of the humeral shaft has been completed, the final reamer used is left in the humerus. The inclination is then measured using the inclination guide (Figure 17). The inclination guide is then slid downwards and seated in the slots along the reamer.

The inclination is then assessed by reading the gradedscale on the guide (template) (fig. 18).

Humeral retroversion is markedwith theby making a groove into the greater tuberosityretroversion osteotome (fig. 19). This groove willorient the compactor fin.
Remove the reamer and the inclination guide. Using asmall rongeur, notch the cortical bone at the level of thegroove to allow passage of the compactor fin (fig. 20).

When the angle lies between two values, the lower should be selected for the prosthesis. The mobile plate must sit flat on the anatomical cut. It may be necessary to slightly reorient the reamer using the handle to obtain optimal positioning of the inclination guide.
Humeral retroversion is marked with the inclination guide by making a groove into the greater tuberosity with the retroversion osteotome (Figure 19). This groove will serve to orient the compactor fin.
Remove the reamer and the inclination guide. Using a small rongeur, notch the cortical bone at the level of the groove to allow passage of the compactor fin (Figure 20).

It may be necessary to use the trial stem impactor to firmly seat the collar of the trial stem on the cut (Figure 25).
If the humeral trial prosthesis fits too low on the cutting surface or if there is insufficient bony support, it is recommended to either use an impaction grafting technique with bone from the humeral head or cement the prosthesis to the proper height.
In case of the necessity to cement the AEQUALIS™ stem, it is recommended that the same trial stem diameter as the optimal compactor be used.
If the trial stem of the chosen size is unstable it is recommended to cement.
Use the broach of the smaller diameter (7 mm) and progress sequentially to the desired size (Figure 26).
After positioning the trial head in an anatomic position, the entire trial prosthesis is then removed. Cement is injected into the canal after diaphyseal obturation and drying.

The head is positioned on the stem, aligning the offset number with its position, using the fin of the implant stem as a reference (Figure 31).

At this stage, the long head of the biceps is cut from the superior glenoid and tenodesed into the groove. Three subscapularis sutures are preplaced through the lateral subscapularis and lesser tuberosity (Figure 33).
The prosthesis is then inserted. Proper orientation of the prosthesis during insertion is assured by positioning the fin into the groove prepared with the retroversion osteotome (Figure 34).
The prosthesis has to be impacted carefully into the medullary canal to avoid metaphyseal fracture.
11. Reduction of the glenohumeral joint and closure
Following reduction of the glenohumeral joint, the stability and mobility of the shoulder are tested. The joint is closed by reinsertion of the subscapularis to the coracohumeral ligament, and to the subscapular remnant, allowing slight slippage of the subscapularis upwards. The wound is closed in layers over an aspiration drain.
Postoperatively the arm is immobilized in a simple sling.
