Proximal humeral fractures in children:Large remodeling capacity, conservative treatment [PDF]

, 2021
Proximal humeral fractures affect 1.5-3% of all childhood fractures. Usually, these fractures can be treated conservatively depending on age and fracture displacement. The proximal growth plate has a great potential for remodeling.

Traumatic pediatric shoulder fracture dislocation treated with closed reduction and intramedullary nailing: A case report

Trauma Case Reports, 2017
Background: Although rare, pediatric proximal humerus fractures may coexist with glenohumeral dislocations. Most of these injuries are Salter -Harris type of injuries. The treatment usually consists of closed or open reduction and k- wires fixation.
