Functional outcome of locked-plate fixation of displaced three-part and four-part fractures of the proximal humerus [PDF]

open access: yesThe Egyptian Orthopaedic Journal, 2014
BackgroundThe treatment of multifragmentary proximal humerus fractures with conventional plate fixation has been associated with implant failure due to lack of bone support.

Evolution of treatment of of the proximal humerus fractures (review)

open access: yesTravmatologiâ i Ortopediâ Rossii, 2013
The article in generalized form acquaints with the publications devoted to the bases of proximal humeral fractures treatment. A brief digression on anatomy and biomechanics of the humeral joint allows to consider the main morphological features of it ...

The effect of medial calcar support on proximal humeral fractures treated with locking plates

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2022
Background Studies have reported mixed results on the importance of medial calcar support for the treatment of proximal humeral fractures. The purpose of this study was to compare radiographic and functional outcomes of patients who had displaced ...

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.

The effect of integrity of lesser tuberosity-medial calcar on postoperative outcome in the proximal humeral fracture

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2023
Background In proximal humeral fractures, the medial calcar is often considered an important stabilizing structure. When the medial calcar is disrupted, some patients may have accompanying humeral lesser tuberosity comminution that has not been noticed ...

Scaling and ecomorphology of lagomorph body shape and appendicular skeleton

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Body shape is one of the most prominent features of phenotypic variation. Yet, mammalian body shapes are poorly quantified and the underlying components contributing to its diversity and its relationship to other skeletal components are rarely tested.

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.

Local variation in age‐related cortical expansion within and between cross‐sections of distal human long bones

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Cortical bone expansion is an age‐related process where, through endosteal resorption and periosteal apposition, cross‐sectional diameter increases while cortical thickness decreases in long bone diaphyses. Local variation has been observed in this process between cross‐sectional locations, but few studies have examined directional variation ...

Anatomy and variation in the paraphyletic Mosasaurus lemonnieri assemblage from the Craie phosphatée de ciply, Belgium

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Nineteenth century excavations of the Ciply‐Malogne Phosphatic Chalk Formation in Hainaut, Belgium, yielded over 50 partial mosasaur skeletons, the majority of which were referred to the species Mosasaurus lemonnieri Dollo, 1889. In the years since, this taxon has experienced a complicated taxonomic history, and its exceptional hypodigm has ...

Results of surgical management of unstable proximal humeral fractures by proximal humeral locking plate [PDF]

open access: yes
Background: Unstable fractures of the proximal humerus present a significant surgical challenge despite the variety of treatment options available. One effective surgical method for managing these fractures is the use of a proximal humerus locking plate.
