Abstract

The incidence of prosthetic shoulder replacements has increased considerably in recent years, as well as the complications derived from the procedure. The correct diagnosis of each type of complication is essential for therapeutic decision making, which is currently based on the information provided by radiological and nuclear medicine imaging. Nevertheless, both techniques have intrinsic limitations that could be mostly overcome with the advent of hybrid SPECT/CT imaging, which is set to play a fundamental role in the evaluation of shoulder prostheses.

Resumen

El número de implantes protésicos de hombro se ha incrementado considerablemente en los últimos años, con el consiguiente aumento de las complicaciones derivadas de dicho procedimiento. El diagnóstico correcto de cada tipo de complicación es esencial para la toma de decisiones terapéuticas, y se basa actualmente en la información aportada tanto por las técnicas de radiodiagnóstico como de medicina nuclear. No obstante, ambos métodos diagnósticos presentan unas limitaciones intrínsecas que pueden ser superadas en gran medida con la incorporación de la imagen SPECT/TC, la cual está llamada a desempeñar un papel fundamental en la valoración de las prótesis de hombro.
