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.

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 ...

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]
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.

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.

Efficacy of a Therapeutic Exercise Program on Patients' Pain and Shoulder Mobility Following Proximal Humeral Fracture Surgery [PDF]
Background: One of the most frequent types of fractures is proximal humeral fracture. Persons with shoulder injuries have a gradual and continuous recovery from their injury and also, many people have persistent disabilities that interfere with their ...

Proximal humeral fractures [PDF]
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]
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

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

Proximal and distal humeral fractures. Outcome of primary arthroplasty [PDF]
This thesis deals with both proximal humeral fractures and elbow injuries, especially distal humeral fractures. The main focus is difficult fractures in the elderly. Few randomized controlled trials (RCTs) are available.
