Assessment of fracture stability following modified minimally invasive reduction osteosynthesis system (MIROS) fixation for Neer 2 and 3-Part proximal humeral fractures

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders
Background Conservative management for elderly proximal humeral fractures is an acceptable option, but the fracture stability is dubious. The purpose of this study was to investigate fracture stability and functional outcomes after modified minimally ...

Use of blocked intramedullary shaft for the treatment of humeral diaphyseal fractures [PDF]

, 2005
Clinical and radiographic outcomes of 31 patients with humeral diaphyseal fractures submitted to surgery with intramedullary shafts were studied. From these, four patients presented fractures at the shaft insertion site and were treated using a different

Sculpting the Future of Bone: The Evolution of Absorbable Materials in Orthopedics

Advanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 9, 12 February 2026.
This review summarizes the current status of polymeric, ceramic, and metallic absorbable materials in orthopedic applications, and highlights several innovative strategies designed to enhance mechanical performance, control degradation, and promote bioactivity. We also discuss the progress and translational potential of absorbable materials in treating

Subclavian vein thrombosis and fatal pulmonary embolism after proximal humerus fracture surgery

Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery, 2019
Deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism, collectively referred to as venous thromboembolism, constitute a major global burden of disease. Although deep vein thrombosis in the upper extremity is less common than lower extremity, it has been associated

Dynamic locking screws in proximal humeral plate osteosynthesis demonstrate superior fixation properties: a biomechanical study

Journal of Experimental Orthopaedics, 2020
Purpose Angular stable implants reduced the complication rate in the treatment of humeral head fractures. But the failure rate is still high. To further reduce the risk of cut-out, cement augmentation of screws was introduced.

Primary Hemiarthroplasty for Proximal Humeral Fractures in the Elderly: Long-Term Functional Outcome and Social Implications [PDF]

, 2018
Background:: Primary shoulder hemiarthroplasty is an established treatment modality for complex fractures of the proximal humerus. Long-term functional outcome is often disappointing. However, little is known about social implications particularly in the

Fixed and Fluid: The Two Faces of Gender Roles—A Combined Study of Activity Patterns and Burial Practices in the European Neolithic

American Journal of Biological Anthropology, Volume 189, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Objectives This study investigates gender roles in the European Neolithic by analyzing activity‐related skeletal changes (ARSCs) and burial practices at two Polgár microregion sites in Hungary: Polgár‐Ferenci‐hát (5300–5070 cal. bce) and Polgár‐Csőszhalom (4800–4650 cal. bce). Materials and Methods A total of 125 well‐preserved adult skeletons

proximal humeral fractures

, 2020
proximal humeral fractures are so common, they are the third common fractures of the upper limb. most of them can be managed conservatively. surgical options includes percutenous pinning, plating, intramedulary nails and arthroplasty.
