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 ...

Surgical Technique for Open Reduction–Internal Fixation of an Unstable Displaced 3-Part Proximal Humeral Fracture Using a Proximal Humeral Locking Plate

Arthroscopy Techniques, 2017
The proximal humeral locking plate (PHLP) is a recently developed fixed-angle implant that is an option for open reduction–internal fixation of an unstable displaced proximal humeral fracture.

Assessment of humeral head perfusion after proximal humeral fracture - study protocol for evaluation of MR-based imaging techniques

Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research
Background There are no clear criteria for decision-making after proximal humeral fractures, and the choice of surgical strategy and, in particular, timing is controversial.

Reverse Shoulder Arthroplasty With Proximal Humeral Replacement for the Management of Massive Proximal Humeral Bone Loss

Journal of Shoulder and Elbow Arthroplasty, 2018
Background Substantial proximal humeral bone loss may compromise reverse shoulder arthroplasty secondary to limited implant support, insufficient soft tissue tension due to shortening, lack of attachment sites for the posterosuperior cuff when present ...

Epidemiology of proximal and diaphyseal humeral fractures in children: an observational study from the Swedish Fracture Register

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2022
Background Most fractures in children are fractures of the upper extremity. Proximal and diaphyseal humeral fractures account for a minority of these fractures. To our knowledge, few previous reports address these fractures.

Fixation of a Proximal Humeral Fracture Using a Novel Intramedullary Cage Construct following a Failed Conservative Treatment [PDF]

Case Reports in Orthopedics, 2017
A majority of proximal humeral fractures are preferably treated conservatively. However, surgical management may be beneficial in proximal humeral fractures with significant displacement or angulation.

Centenarians with proximal humeral fracture

BMC Geriatrics
Background The demographic change in Germany leads to an increased number of centenarians. Within this population fragility fractures, such as the proximal humeral fracture (PHF), are not well investigated.

Early failure of a locked titanium plate in a proximal humeral fracture: Case report and metallurgic analysis

Trauma Case Reports, 2018
Angular stability locking plates are commonly used in proximal humeral fractures, especially in old patients with osteoporotic bones. These implants show good results in short and midterm follow-up, but complications are not uncommon.

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 ...

Humeral fractures - Epidemiology, treatment and reoperations in the Swedish Fracture Register [PDF]

, 2021
Fractures are common, but the knowledge on outcomes, treatment methods or the actual number of fractures treated each year has been sparse. With the introduction of the Swedish Fracture Register (SFR) in 2011, the prospective registration and analysis of
