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

Proximal humeral fractures are the third most common fragility fracture and it account for 5–9% of all fractures [1, 2]. Proximal humerus fractures have a dual age distribution occurs either young people following high energy trauma or in those older than 50 years with low velocity injuries like simple fall [3]. In the elderly population, most of these

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
2000Fractures of the proximal humerus represent about 5% of all fractures of the human skeleton and correspond to approximately 45% of all fractures of the humerus. Together with femoral neck fractures, fractures of the spine and fractures of the distal radius, they mainly affect postmenopausal women suffering from osteoporosis.

Fracture of the Proximal Humerus
2010Injuries of the proximal humerus, which include humeral neck fractures, and physeal injuries are among the less common injuries of childhood (only 3% of all pediatric fractures). They affect children and adolescents of all ages because the proximal humeral physis is one of the last to close; this explains why physeal injuries occur even in late ...

Fractures of the Proximal Humerus
1980Fractures of the proximal humerus are much less common during growth than in elderly persons. This well-known fact has been confirmed by the data published by Tondeur. Neer and Horwitz found involvement of the upper humeral epiphysis in only 3 % of 2 500 epiphyseal separations and fracture separations.
