Concomitant Ulecranon Fracture, Ipsilateral Segmental Humerus Fracture and Intercondylar Humerus Fracture in a 4-Year-Old Girl: an Extremely Rare Case Report and Literature Review [PDF]

, 2013
T-condylar fracture of distal humerus in young children is very rare. Pure physeal fractures of the olecranon are also rare. We report on an extremely rare case of concomitant ulecranon fracture, ipsilateral segmental humerus and intercondylar humerus ...

Biomechanical Evaluation of the Fixation Methods for Transcondylar Fracture of the Humerus:ONI Plate Versus Conventional Plates and Screws [PDF]

, 2010
We biomechanically evaluated the bone fixation rigidity of an ONI plate (Group I) during fixation of experimentally created transcondylar humerus fractures in cadaveric elbows, which are the most frequently observed humeral fractures in the elderly, and ...

Traumatic pediatric shoulder fracture dislocation treated with closed reduction and intramedullary nailing: A case report

Trauma Case Reports, 2017
Background: Although rare, pediatric proximal humerus fractures may coexist with glenohumeral dislocations. Most of these injuries are Salter -Harris type of injuries. The treatment usually consists of closed or open reduction and k- wires fixation.

Comorbidities only account for a small proportion of excess mortality after fracture: A record linkage study of individual fracture types [PDF]

, 2018
Background: Non-hip non-vertebral fractures (NHNV) constitute the majority of osteoporotic fractures but few studies have examined the association between these fractures, co-morbidity and mortality.

Severely Comminuted Transolecranon Fracture Fixation with the Help of Medial Humerus Anatomical Plate: A Case Report and Educational Corner

Journal of Orthopedic and Spine Trauma, 2022
Background: Transolecranon fracture is an unstable intra-articular injury in the elbow caused by high-energy trauma. Here, we introduce a medial humerus plate for severely comminuted transolecranon fracture.

Antibiotic Spacers in Shoulder Arthroplasty: Comparison of Stemmed and Stemless Implants. [PDF]

, 2017
Background: Antibiotic spacers in shoulder periprosthetic joint infection deliver antibiotics locally and provide temporary stability. The purpose of this study was to evaluate differences between stemmed and stemless spacers. Methods: All spacers placed

Automated detection and classification of the proximal humerus fracture by using deep learning algorithm

Acta Orthopaedica, 2018
Background and purpose — We aimed to evaluate the ability of artificial intelligence (a deep learning algorithm) to detect and classify proximal humerus fractures using plain anteroposterior shoulder radiographs.

Operative versus non-operative treatment for 2-part proximal humerus fracture: A multicenter randomized controlled trial

PLoS Medicine, 2019
Background Although increasingly used, the benefit of surgical treatment of displaced 2-part proximal humerus fractures has not been proven. This trial evaluates the clinical effectiveness of surgery with locking plate compared with non-operative ...
