Fixation Techniques for Intraarticular Proximal Humeral Fractures [PDF]
Background. The most severe type of injuries of the proximal epiphysis of the humerus are intraarticular fractures. One of the main complication is the development of avascular osteonecrosis, which is caused by the peculiarities of blood supply of the ...

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

Internal fixation versus nonoperative treatment for displaced 3-part or 4-part proximal humeral fractures in elderly patients: a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: A few studies focused on open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) or nonoperative treatment of displaced 3-part or 4-part proximal humeral fractures in elderly patients have been published, all of whom had a low number of patients. In this
