Surgical Position of Lateral-Tilted Supine is Suitable for Proximal Humeral Fracture Operations in Geriatric Patients [PDF]

Geriatric Orthopaedic Surgery & Rehabilitation, 2022
Objective To report a new surgical position of lateral-tilted supine (LTS) for geriatric proximal humeral fracture operations. Methods Between January 2016 and December 2020, we adopted the LTS position for operations in 65 geriatric patients with ...

Late-onset implant-related neuropathy: Three years after proximal humeral fracture [PDF]

Trauma Case Reports, 2022
There are currently no reports of implant-related neuropathy associated with humeral proximal fracture surgery. Herein, we report a case of implant-related late-onset neuropathy that developed 3 years after proximal humeral fracture surgery.A 51-year-old

The effect of integrity of lesser tuberosity-medial calcar on postoperative outcome in the proximal humeral fracture [PDF]

Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2023
Background In proximal humeral fractures, the medial calcar is often considered an important stabilizing structure. When the medial calcar is disrupted, some patients may have accompanying humeral lesser tuberosity comminution that has not been noticed ...

Proximal Humeral Fractures

Geriatric Orthopaedic Surgery & Rehabilitation, 2010
The purpose of our study was to biomechanically compare, under cyclic loading conditions, fracture site motion, humeral head collapse, and intra-articular hardware penetration in simulated 3-part osteoporotic proximal humeral fractures stabilized with 1 ...

Proximal humeral fractures [PDF]

Current Reviews in Musculoskeletal Medicine, 2011
Proximal humeral fractures may present with many different configurations in patients with varying co-morbities and expectations. As a result, the treating physician must understand the fracture pattern, the quality of the bone, other patient-related factors, and the expanding range of reconstructive options to achieve the best functional outcome and ...

Biomechanical investigation of arm position on deforming muscular forces in proximal humerus fractures [PDF]

Clinics in Shoulder and Elbow, 2022
Background Muscular forces drive proximal humeral fracture deformity, yet it is unknown if arm position can help mitigate such forces. Our hypothesis was that glenohumeral abduction and humeral internal rotation decrease the pull of the supraspinatus and
