The Mechanical Benefit of Medial Support Screws in Locking Plating of Proximal Humerus Fractures
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to evaluate the biomechanical advantages of medial support screws (MSSs) in the locking proximal humeral plate for treating proximal humerus fractures. METHODS Thirty synthetic left humeri were randomly divided into 3 subgroups to establish two-part surgical neck fracture models of proximal humerus. All fractures were fixed with a locking proximal hume...
متن کاملFixed-angle locked plating of two-, three-, and four-part proximal humerus fractures.
Proximal humerus fractures are relatively common, accounting for 5% to 9% of all fractures.1-3 These fractures can pose a challenge for the treating orthopaedist because of the generally osteoporotic nature of bone in the elderly and the relative deforming forces of the surrounding muscles. Fractures are classified according to the Neer criteria, and treatment is often guided by the relative di...
متن کاملPlating of proximal humeral fractures.
The optimal treatment for proximal humeral fractures is controversial. Few data exist concerning the influence of the surgical approach on the outcome. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical and radiological outcomes of proximal humeral fractures treated with locking plate fixation through a deltopectoral vs an anterolateral deltoid-splitting approach. Of 86 patients who met the...
متن کاملProximal humerus fractures.
Proximal humerus fractures are among the most common fractures associated with osteoporosis. With an aging population, incidence of these fractures will only increase. The proximal humerus not only forms the lateral portion of the shoulder articulation but also has significant associations with musculoskeletal and neurovascular structures. As a result, fractures of the proximal humerus can sign...
متن کاملIntramedullary Chondrosarcoma of Proximal Humerus
Primary chondrosarcoma is the third most frequent primary malignancy of bone after myeloma and osteosarcoma. It is ranging from slow growing nonmetastasising lesions to highly aggressive lesions. We report a case of primary intramedullary chondrosarcoma of proximal humerus. A 60-year-old female presented with pain and hard swelling involving the left arm for 5 months. Radiograph showed a lucent...
