Interobserver reliability of classification and characterization of proximal humeral fractures: a comparison of two and three-dimensional CT [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Interobserver reliability for the classification of proximal humeral fractures is limited. The aim of this study was to test the null hypothesis that interobserver reliability of the AO classification of proximal humeral fractures, the preferred ...

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.

The effect of medial calcar support on proximal humeral fractures treated with locking plates

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2022
Background Studies have reported mixed results on the importance of medial calcar support for the treatment of proximal humeral fractures. The purpose of this study was to compare radiographic and functional outcomes of patients who had displaced ...

Inadequate proximal screw fixation increases risk of failure following plate fixation of diaphyseal humerus fractures

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2023
Background Operative treatment of humeral shaft fractures (AO/OTA 12) is being performed more frequently. Accordingly, it is important to understand the complications associated with plate fixation.

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

open access: yes, 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.

Survival to amputation in pre-antibiotic era: a case study from a Longobard necropolis (6th-8th centuries AD) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The Longobard necropolis of Povegliano Veronese dates from the 6th to the 8th centuries AD. Among the 164 tombs excavated, the skeleton of an older male shows a well-healed amputated right forearm.

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

open access: yes, 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

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.

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

open access: yes, 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 ...
