Lateral condylar retrograde humeral nail for management of high-energy distal humeral fractures
Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery, 2019 Purpose: Distal metaphyseo-diaphyseal humeral fractures are challenging particularly if open, comminuted, or associated with nerve injury. In cases of open distal complex metaphyseo-diaphyseal humeral fractures inamenable for traditional methods of ...

The epidemiology of proximal humeral fractures [PDF]
Acta Orthopaedica Scandinavica, 2001 We present a 5-year prospective study of the epidemiology of 1,027 proximal humeral fractures. These fractures, which tend to occur in fit elderly persons, have a unipolar age distribution and the highest age-specific incidence occurs in women between 80 and 89 years of age. The commonest was the B1.1 impacted valgus fracture, found in one-fifth of the
