Management of Unicameral Bone Cyst with Pathological Fracture of Proximal Humerus with Curettage, Fibular Grafting and Plate Osteosynthesis: A Retrospective Study [PDF]
Introduction: Unicameral Bone Cysts (UBC) are benign fluid filled lesions at metaphyseal regions of long bones of immature skeleton. Several treatment options exist but none have proven to be the best.

Proximal Humerus Fracture Rehabilitation [PDF]
The occurrence of proximal humerus fractures will continue to rise with the increasing elderly population. Many patients with proximal humerus fractures have osteoporosis and have poor neuromuscular control mechanisms. This predisposes them to future falls and additional fractures. Patients continue to have shoulder problems as a result of the fracture

Epidemiology of proximal humerus fractures
There are only a few previous population-based studies that include both inpatient and outpatient treatment data. The aim of this study was to investigate the epidemiology of proximal humerus fractures. The incidence of proximal humerus fractures increases with age, and we observe a seasonal variation strongly favoring winter months.Proximal humerus ...
