Staged Reconstruction for Humeral Osteomyelitis after Severe Crush Injury of the Shoulder: A Case Report [PDF]

Malaysian Orthopaedic Journal, 2022
The incidence of humeral osteomyelitis is relatively rare as compared to incidence of lower limb osteomyelitis. Despite having no guideline in the management of humeral osteomyelitis, surgeons have utilised their experience in managing lower limb ...

Management of Proximal Humerus Fractures in Adults—A Scoping Review

Journal of Clinical Medicine, 2022
Proximal humerus fractures are the third most common fracture type in adults, with their incidence increasing over time. There are varied approaches to both the classification and treatment of proximal humerus fractures.

Self-Reduction in Proximal Humerus Fractures through Upright Patient Positioning: Is It up to Gravity?

Diagnostics, 2022
Background: The self-reduction in proximal humerus fractures (PHFs) remains a poorly explored myth, and it was rarely investigated in the past. One of the oldest hypotheses suggests that gravity and the weight of the affected arm alone are driving forces,

Trending a decade of proximal humerus fracture management in older adults

JSES International, 2021
Background Proximal humerus fractures are the third most common fracture in older adults. Because of the aging population, the incidence of these fractures and their impact will continue to grow. With advancement in treatment options for proximal humeral

Predicting the deltoid tuberosity index in proximal humerus fractures using fracture characteristics and patient age: development of the LBQ-PHF score

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2023
Background The aim of this study was to investigate (1) whether fracture pattern and age are associated with local bone quality (LBQ), and (2) whether a scoring system based on these variables is able to predict LBQ in proximal humerus fractures (PHF ...

Humeral torsional side differences after nonoperative treatment of proximal humerus fractures and humeral shaft fractures: clinical and ultrasonographic assessment

Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2023
Background The purposes of this study were to investigate (1) sonographic humeral torsion (SHT) and side differences (∆SHT), and (2) to determine the relationship between SHT and range of rotational motion (RORM) as well as functional outcome scores of ...

Proximal Humerus Reconstruction after Tumor Resection: An Overview of Surgical Management

Advances in Orthopedics, 2021
Proximal humerus is one of the anatomical sites that are most frequently involved by bone and soft tissue malignant tumors. Alone or in association with adjuvant treatments, surgery represents the main therapeutic option to treat and eradicate these ...

The morphological and morphometric analysis of the variant patterns of the tricipital aponeurosis: a new anatomical classification with possible clinical implications

Folia Morphologica, 2022
BACKGROUND: Tricipital aponeurosis (TA) has gained attraction as a constant and reliable landmark to identify the location of radial nerve in the setting of fracture distal humeri. The aponeurosis itself shows variant anatomical patterns.

Surgical Treatment Strategy for Distal Humerus Intra-articular Fractures [PDF]

Clinics in Shoulder and Elbow, 2019
Treating distal humerus fractures, especially those involving intra-articular lesions, is complex and often technically demanding. Although there still exist many controversial issues, the goal of treatment is to establish anatomical stable fixation by ...
