Glenoid version: the role of genetic and environmental factors on its variability. An MRI study on asymptomatic elderly twins

Abstract: Background Glenoid version is the most variable parameter of the shoulder joint. No authors investigated if intrinsic genetic factors or influences from extrinsic sources are responsible for its variability. Aim We compared glenoid version between elderly monozygotic and dizygotic twins intending to separate the contributions of genetics from shared and unique environments. Methods Glenoid version of the dominant shoulder was assessed by MRI using Friedman’s method in 30 pairs of elderly twins (16 monozygotic–… Show more

“…[50][51][52][53] Glenoid retroversion angles can vary within a normal shoulder population, though most authors agree that a retroversion angle of 10 or more degrees would be considered excessive (Figure 2a). 53,54 The degree of glenoid version is considered to be largely genetically determined in the general population, 55 however repetitive overhead use of the arm before the age of 12 years (prior to the development of secondary ossification centers) could impact glenoid development. 56 Recent evidence 57 identifies an increased incidence of posterior glenoid dysplasia in adoles- Posterior humeral head subluxations can cause glenoid erosion due to shearing of the humeral head across the posterior glenoid rim which can further progress PSI (Figure 2b).…”
