Proximal humerus fractures are among the most common fractures associated with osteoporosis. With an aging population, incidence of these fractures will only increase. The proximal humerus not only forms the lateral portion of the shoulder articulation but also has significant associations with musculoskeletal and neurovascular structures. As a result,

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Small Animal Practice, 1992
A single or double bar, type I, unilateral external fixator can be used as primary or ancillary treatment for repair of many humeral fractures. Treatment of contaminated and comminuted fractures with external skeletal fixation provides rotational stability and axial alignment, access for wound management and bone grafting, and avoidance of vascular ...

Injury, 1992
The use of humeral fracture braces has become our preferred method of treatment for fractures of the shaft of the humerus. These braces are easy to apply and adjust; the patient's acceptance of this method of treatment is high. We compared this method of treatment with the traditional method of plaster U-slab immobilization. A group of patients treated
