Abstract

Purpose: Morphology of humeral head in normal shoulder of Vietnamese population CT. Methods: 75 humeral heads in 69 patients (29 males, 46 females) (aged 50 or older) undergoing CT – scan, HCM City Hospital for Traumatology and Orthopedics (HTO), from May 2021 to May 2022. We used RadiAnt DICOM Viewer software (version 2022.1.1) to measure the inclination angle, head to tuberosity height, deltoid tuberosity index (DTI). Results: The inclination angle averaged 132,36o ± 2,44o. Head to tuberosity height averaged 5,67 ± 0,67mm. Deltoid tuberosity index (DTI) averaged 1,76 ± 0,2. Compared with men, females have similar inclination angle (p > 0,05), smaller head to tuberosity height and deltoid tuberosity index (p < 0,05). Conclusion: Some CT morphological parameters in Vietnamese differs from that in Caucasian and even other Asian populations. These differences have clinical relevance with regard to implant design and arthroplasty technique and likely affect clinical outcomes. Therefore, humeral head prostheses designed for Vietnamese may help avoid mismatches.
