Trending a decade of proximal humerus fracture management in older adults
JSES International, 2022 Background: Proximal humerus fractures are the third most common fracture in older adults. Because of the aging population, the incidence of these fractures and their impact will continue to grow.

Radiopaedia.org, 2012 AP is a 67-year-old female who presents to the emergency department via EMS complaining of severe shoulder pain after a high-speed motor-vehicle accident in which she was a restrained passenger. She denies any loss of consciousness. On primary survey, she demonstrates a GCS of 15, a patent airway, and is hemodynamically stable. On secondary survey, she

Morphological Analysis of Fractures of the Proximal Humerus by the Fracture Mapping Technique
Orthopaedic Surgery, 2023 Objective Fractures of different parts of the proximal humerus may lead to different postoperative functional deficits, but there are few studies on the morphology and related functions of the proximal humerus.
