Fixation of a Proximal Humeral Fracture Using a Novel Intramedullary Cage Construct following a Failed Conservative Treatment

open access: yesCase Reports in Orthopedics, 2017
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.

The coelurosaur theropods of the Romualdo formation, early Cretaceous (Aptian) of Brazil: Santanaraptor placidus meets Mirischia asymmetrica

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The upper carbonate concretion levels of the Romualdo Formation (Aptian, Brazil) have yielded several theropod dinosaur remains, including spinosaurids and the coelurosaurs Santanaraptor placidus and Mirischia asymmetrica, the phylogenetic affinities of which are controversial.

Born this way: Does variation in perinatal limb bone morphology predict adult locomotor repertoire in primates?

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Primates show a high degree of locomotor diversity that engenders similar variance in limb bone cross‐sectional geometry and bending strength: leaping primates have stronger hindlimb bones whereas suspensory species have stronger forelimb bones.

Proximal humeral fracture

open access: yesZeitschrift fur Orthopadie und Unfallchirurgie, 2010
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

Centenarians with proximal humeral fracture

open access: yesBMC Geriatrics
Abstract Background The demographic change in Germany leads to an increased number of centenarians. Within this population fragility fractures, such as the proximal humeral fracture (PHF), are not well investigated. This study aims to evaluate the epidemiology, treatment and outcome after a PHF

Failure Rates and Patient‐Reported Outcomes Are Similar Across 5 Arthroscopic, Suprapectoral Biceps Tenodesis Fixation Techniques

open access: yesArthroscopy, Sports Medicine, and Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
Purpose To compare failure rates and patient‐reported outcome measures (PROMs) across 5 arthroscopic, suprapectoral biceps tenodesis fixation techniques: tenodesis screw, tenodesis anchor, expanding tenodesis anchor, onlay with single all‐suture anchor, and soft tissue tenodesis in the bicipital groove with suture.

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]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
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

Arthroscopy‐Assisted Fixation of Combined Coracoid Fracture and Acromioclavicular Dislocation: A Minimalist Approach

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Combined acromioclavicular dislocation and coracoid process fracture disrupts the superior shoulder suspensory complex, leading to shoulder instability that often requires surgical intervention. This rare injury, increasingly identified through advanced diagnostics, lacks consensus on the optimal treatment. We describe a minimalist arthroscopy‐

Third-generation intramedullary nailing for displaced proximal humeral fractures in the elderly: quality of life, clinical results, and complications

open access: yes, 2020
Introduction: Antegrade insertion of third-generation intramedullary nail (IMN) has been shown to provide excellent results in young patients for treatment of displaced two-part surgical neck fracture.

Intra‐articular Proximal Biceps Tenotomy With Extra‐articular Transfer: A Technique to Repair Full‐thickness Rotator Cuff Tears

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract The long head of the biceps tendon (LHBT), as a tendinous structure adjacent to the rotator cuff, can be easily used to repair the rotator cuff. Currently, there are many different surgical procedures for the LHBT. Direct severance of the LHBT is simple but may result in pain and deformity, and fixation of the LHBT wastes the tendinous tissue ...
