AO X-shaped midfoot locking plate to treat displaced isolated greater tuberosity fractures.
Although various implants exist for 3- and 4-part fractures, few implants are appropriate for isolated greater tuberosity fractures. This retrospective study evaluated the efficacy of AO X-shaped midfoot locking plates for greater tuberosity fractures. Between May 2008 and September 2009, nineteen patients with displaced greater tuberosity fractures were treated with open reduction and internal...
متن کاملQuantitative 3-dimensional Computerized Tomography Modeling of Isolated Greater Tuberosity Fractures with and without Shoulder Dislocation
Background: The aim of this study was to assess differences in fracture morphology and displacement betweenisolated greater tuberosity (GT) fractures (i.e. fractures of the greater tuberosity without other fractures of the proximalhumerus) with and without shoulder dislocation utilizing quantitative 3-dimensional CT imaging.Methods: Thirty-four CT-scans of isolated greater tuberosity fractures ...
متن کاملIsolated fractures of the greater tuberosity of the proximal humerus
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The diagnosis and treatment of isolated greater tuberosity fractures of the proximal humerus is not clear-cut. We retrospectively assessed the clinical and radiographic outcome of isolated greater tuberosity fractures. PATIENTS AND METHODS 30 patients (mean age 58 (26-85) years, 19 women) with 30 closed isolated greater tuberosity fractures were reassessed after an aver...
متن کاملSling compared with plate osteosynthesis for treatment of displaced midshaft clavicular fractures: a randomized clinical trial.
BACKGROUND Few randomized controlled trials have compared operative with nonoperative treatment of clavicular fractures. METHODS Patients with displaced midshaft clavicular fractures were randomized either to nonoperative treatment with a sling or to operative treatment with a stainless steel 3.5-mm reconstruction plate. Outcome measures were the Constant shoulder score, DASH (Disabilities of...
متن کاملLocking plate osteosynthesis in displaced 4-part fractures of the proximal humerus
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE There is considerable uncertainty about the optimal treatment of displaced 4-part fractures of the proximal humerus. Within the last decade, locking plate technology has been considered a breakthrough in the treatment of these complex injuries. METHODS We systematically identified and reviewed clinical studies on the benefits and harms after osteosynthesis with locking ...
