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

open access: yesArthroscopy 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.

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

open access: yesJournal 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

open access: yesBMC 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]

open access: yesCase 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.

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

open access: yesTrauma 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.

Efficacy of a Therapeutic Exercise Program on Patients' Pain and Shoulder Mobility Following Proximal Humeral Fracture Surgery [PDF]

open access: yesEgyptian Journal of Health Care, 2023
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]

open access: yesCurrent 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]

open access: yesClinics 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

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

open access: yes, 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

Proximal and distal humeral fractures. Outcome of primary arthroplasty [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
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.
