Clinical Anatomy, 2006
Fractures of the proximal humerus are common. A relatively large number of these injuries will heal with nonoperative treatment without major residual pain or functional loss. However, internal fixation or arthroplasty leads to a much better outcome for selected fractures.

Proximal humerus fractures: editorial
European Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery & Traumatology, 2017Proximal humerus fractures are characterized by their frequency, the difficulties and the absence of treatment of reference. New means of osteosynthesis appeared since the years 2000, as well as the preferential recourse to the reversed prostheses of shoulder. A chapter is dedicated to classifications, as a whole not very reproducible.

Currently, proximal humerus fractures make up 7% of all fractures and 80% of all humerus fractures. In patients older than 65, proximal humerus fractures make up more than 10% of all fractures and are the third most common non-vertebral osteoporotic fracture following fractures of the distal radius and proximal femur.

Fractures of the Proximal Humerus
Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 2013Proximal humeral fractures are common, with low-energy injuries occurring in the elderly population and less frequent high-energy fractures striking young people. This article discusses the anatomy, clinical evaluation, and treatment of these fractures.

Various common injuries in the shoulder, humerus, and elbow are investigated in this section. Significant attention is paid not only to proper diagnostic examination and imaging, but also to optimal non-operative and operative treatment options to manage these conditions.

Fractures of the proximal humerus
Journal of Orthopaedic Trauma, 1999Proximal humeral fractures are common particularly in the elderly. The decision of the optimal treatment is dependent on many factors. On the one hand the biological age of the patient and the bone structure plays a key-role, on the other hand the living conditions and individual needs are of importance. Most fractures with minimal displacement respond

Treatment of Proximal Humerus Fractures
Journal of Orthopaedic Trauma, 2007The majority of proximal humerus fractures are treated nonoperatively with good functional results. Multiple options exist for treating displaced fractures, without a clear advantage of any one method for a given fracture type. Goals include an adequate reduction and stable fixation to initiate early motion and rehabilitation. Decision-making should be
