Closed reduction and external fixation for displaced proximal humeral fractures.
PURPOSE To assess results of closed reduction and external fixation for displaced proximal humeral fractures. METHODS 18 men and 2 women aged 18 to 60 (mean, 38) years underwent closed reduction and external fixation using a standard AO fixator for displaced fractures of the proximal humerus. Injury mechanisms were road traffic accident (n=15) and fall from a height (n=5). 15 were 2-part frac...
متن کاملExternal fixation for displaced 2-part proximal humeral fractures.
Studies have reported conflicting results regarding external fixation for displaced proximal humeral fractures. Compared with open reduction and internal fixation, external fixation for displaced proximal humeral fractures avoids dissection and soft tissue stripping and leads to higher union rates, a lower incidence of avascular necrosis, less scaring of the scapulohumeral interface, and faster...
متن کاملPhilos plate fixation for displaced proximal humeral fractures.
PURPOSE To evaluate the treatment outcome of Philos plate fixation for displaced proximal humeral fractures in 27 consecutive patients. METHODS 6 men and 21 women aged 22 to 85 (mean, 56) years underwent Philos plate fixation for displaced proximal humeral fractures. 11 patients were aged 60 years or younger and 16 older than 60 years. All fractures were closed with no associated injuries and...
متن کاملClosed Reduction versus Open Reduction and Pin Fixation in Pediatric Type III Supracondylar Humeral Fractures
Background Supracondylar humeral fractures constitute about 60% and 13% of all pediatric elbow and pediatric skeletal fractures, respectively, with a peak incidence in the 5-7 years age group. The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare closed reduction with open reduction and pin fixation in type III supracondylar humeral fractures in children younger than...
متن کاملManagement Of Displaced Proximal Humeral Fractures
Treatment decision of displaced proximal humeral fractures is based on bone quality, fracture pattern, degree of displacement and patient profile. The AO/ASIF fracture classification helps in guiding treatment. Nonsurgical treatment consists of sling immobilisation. Surgical options include closed reduction and percutaneous pinning, open reduction and internal fixation with either conventional ...
