Principles of Locking Plate Fixation of Proximal Humerus Fractures.

Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, 2021
Proximal humerus fractures are common, particularly in elderly patients and those with osteopenia or osteoporosis. Although nonsurgical management results in satisfactory outcomes for most patients, surgical treatment is indicated in select cases ...

Comparison of reconstructive techniques following oncologic intraarticular resection of proximal humerus

Journal of Surgical Oncology, 2020
The proximal humerus is a common site of primary and metastatic disease in the upper extremity. Historically, the goal of a hemiarthroplasty reconstruction was to provide a stable platform for hand and elbow function, with limited shoulder function ...

Decreased Reoperations and Improved Outcomes With Reverse Total Shoulder Arthroplasty in Comparison to Hemiarthroplasty for Geriatric Proximal Humerus Fractures: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Journal of Orthopaedics and Trauma, 2019
Objectives: We sought to compare range of motion, clinical outcome scores, and complications after reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) and hemiarthroplasty (HA) in geriatric patients with acute proximal humerus fractures.

Effect of Tuberosity Healing on Clinical Outcomes in Elderly Patients Treated With a Reverse Shoulder Arthroplasty for 3- and 4-Part Proximal Humerus Fractures

Journal of Orthopaedics and Trauma, 2019
Objectives: To evaluate tuberosity union rate and clinical outcome after 3- and 4-part proximal humerus fractures in the elderly. Design: Retrospective, multicenter database cohort study. Setting: Level I and Level II trauma centers. Patients: Fifty-five

Posttraumatic Avascular Necrosis After Proximal Femur, Proximal Humerus, Talar Neck, and Scaphoid Fractures.

Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, 2019
Posttraumatic avascular necrosis (AVN) is osteonecrosis from vascular disruption, commonly encountered after fractures of the femoral neck, proximal humerus, talar neck, and scaphoid.

Functional Outcomes and Complications After Oncologic Reconstruction of the Proximal Humerus

Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, 2018
Background: No consensus exists on the best method of articular reconstruction in patients who require proximal humerus resection for the management of primary bone sarcomas, soft-tissue sarcomas extending into the bone, benign and locally aggressive ...

Factors associated with the magnitude of limitations during recovery from a fracture of the proximal humerus: predictors of limitations after proximal humerus fracture.

The Bone & Joint Journal, 2019
AIMS The purpose of this study was to identify factors associated with limitations in function, measured by patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs), six to nine months after a proximal humeral fracture, from a range of demographic, injury ...

Oncologic reconstruction of the proximal humerus with a reverse total shoulder arthroplasty megaprosthesis

Journal of Surgical Oncology, 2018
Both malignant and benign tumors of the proximal humerus may necessitate resection of a substantial portion of the proximal humerus, making reconstruction options challenging.
