Inter-rater agreement among shoulder surgeons on treatment options for proximal humeral fractures among shoulder surgeons [PDF]
Background The treatment approach for proximal humeral fractures is determined by various factors, including patient age, sex, dominant arm, fracture pattern, presence of osteoporosis, preexisting arthritis, rotator cuff status, and medical comorbidities.

Simultaneous Bilateral Proximal Humeri Anterior Fracture Dislocations in a Patient with 1st Onset Seizure. A Case Report and Review of the Literature [PDF]
Bilateral anterior fracture-dislocations of humeral neck in a patient with seizure are extremely rare. We describe a rare case of a 33 -year-old Chinese gentleman who presented post seizure secondary to subdural gliosis, sequelae from a previous ...

Fractures of the proximal humerus are very common in elderly people with an increasing incidence. Complex fracture-patterns are observed. For radiological examination x-rays in 2 planes are mandatory. Often an additive CT-scan can be useful for a better understanding of the whole fracture-character. Limits of accepted fracture displacement decrease and

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.

Reprodutibilidade de três classificações de fraturas na região proximal do úmero [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: To propose a new system for classifying proximal humeral neck fractures, and to evaluate intra- and interobserver agreement using the Neer system that is the most commonly used in the area and the Arbeit Gemeinschaft für Osteosynthesefragen ...

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.
