Proximal humerus fractures and shoulder dislocations: Prevalence of concomitant rotator cuff tear

Journal of Orthopaedics, Trauma and Rehabilitation, 2023
Background: Proximal humerus fractures and shoulder dislocations are relatively common. However, an associated rotator cuff tear is often missed with these injuries.

Optimization of Locking Plate Screw Angle Used to Treat Two-Part Proximal Humerus Fractures to Maintain Fracture Stability

Applied Sciences, 2022
Proximal humerus fractures increase with the aging of the population. Due to the high failure rates of surgical treatments such as open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF), biomechanical studies seek to optimize the treatments and intervening factors ...

Predictors of outcomes of proximal humerus fractures in children and adolescents: A systematic review

Journal of Children's Orthopaedics, 2022
Purpose: Minimally displaced pediatric proximal humerus fractures can be reliably managed non-operatively; however, there is considerable debate regarding the appropriate management of severely displaced proximal humerus fractures, particularly in older ...

New Method of Surgical Treatment of Patients with a Fracture of the Proximal Humerus on the Background of Critical Osteoporosis

Acta Biomedica Scientifica, 2019
Fractures associated with osteoporosis, due to the high prevalence and high percentage of related complications, are a serious problem for modern traumatology and orthopedics. Among all injuries of the upper extremities, fractures in the proximal humerus

Hemiarthroplasty for proximal humerus fractures [PDF]

Current Reviews in Musculoskeletal Medicine, 2013
Proximal humerus fractures are common injuries that are increasing in incidence with the aging of the population. While nonoperative treatment of some fracture patterns results in clinical success, other, more displaced and comminuted fractures may require surgery to ensure a successful outcome.

Fractures of the Proximal Humerus

Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 2013
Proximal 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.

Geographic variation in the treatment of proximal humerus fracture: an update on surgery rates and treatment consensus

Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2019
Background Using a larger, more comprehensive sample, and inclusion of the reverse shoulder arthroplasty as a primary surgical approach for proximal humerus fracture, we report on geographic variation in the treatment of proximal humerus fracture in 2011

Prediction of the Proximal Humerus Morphology Based on a Statistical Shape Model with Two Parameters: Comparison to Contralateral Registration Method

Bioengineering, 2023
(1) Background: Complex proximal humerus fractures often result in complications following surgical treatment. A better understanding of the full 3D displacement would provide insight into the fracture morphology.
