Proximal Humeral Fractures: Nailing
European Journal of Trauma and Emergency Surgery, 2007Treating proximal humeral fractures surgically has always been a challenge for the orthopaedic trauma surgeon. The challenge was and is due to numerous factors such as the specific anatomy of the proximal humerus, problems of an adequate approach and exposure of the fracture and different fracture fragments, possible iatrogenic injuries to the rotator ...

Complications in proximal humeral fractures
Injury, 2016Necrosis of the humeral head, infections and non-unions are among the most dangerous and difficult-to-treat complications of proximal humeral fractures. The aim of this work was to analyse in detail non-unions and post-traumatic bone defects and to suggest an algorithm of care.

Plating in Proximal Humeral Fractures
European Journal of Trauma and Emergency Surgery, 2007Improved imaging, updated knowledge regarding humeral head perfusion and adapted fixation techniques with implants having better purchase also in osteopenic bone, have influenced the treatment of proximal humeral fractures in recent years. Demographic evolution and a more active population even among the older age groups will increase the incidence of ...

Proximal humeral fractures encompass many combinations of fractures, dislocations, and fracture dislocations. Fractures associated with significant displacement may heal and still have a very functional outcome. Surgical treatment options and techniques are described.

Proximal humeral fractures are quite frequent, especially seen in elderly females with osteopenic bone structure. Based on precise diagnostics and a consequent classification of the fracture, it is possible to define an individual treatment protocol. Doing so it is very helpful to understand the individual pathomechanism leading to the fracture pattern

Proximal humeral fractures continue to pose challenges on many fronts. From fracture characterisation to treatment choices and personalised treatment decisions, there is limited guidance from the literature. The PROFHER Trial, being the largest randomised trial to date on these fractures, has provided high quality evidence to justify non-surgical ...

The vast majority of fractures are produced by falls from standing height (87%), while sports injuries and road accidents constitute a small proportion of proximal humeral fractures (8%) and represent the younger population (33 years-old for sport injuries and 46 years for road accidents) whose fracture patterns and treatment considerations are not the
