Proximal humeral fractures: current concepts in classification, treatment and outcomes.
Most proximal humeral fractures are stable injuries of the ageing population, and can be successfully treated non-operatively. The management of the smaller number of more complex displaced fractures is more controversial and new fixation techniques have greatly increased the range of fractures that may benefit from surgery. This article explores current concepts in the classification and clini...
متن کاملUpdated classification system for proximal humeral fractures.
Proximal humeral fractures can restrict daily activities and, therefore, deserve efficient diagnoses that minimize complications and sequels. For good diagnosis and treatment, patient characteristics, variability in the forms of the fractures presented, and the technical difficulties in achieving fair results with surgical treatment should all be taken into account. Current classification syste...
متن کاملproximal humeral fractures: nonoperative versus operative treatment
results at follow-up, the nonoperatively treated patients had better functional outcomes than the operatively treated patients. nonoperatively treated patients also scored better on pain intensity and satisfaction. there were no significant differences in cesd, pcs, and sf-36 physical- and mental health summary scores between cohorts. conclusions the results of this study suggest that operative...
متن کاملProximal Humeral Fractures: Nonoperative Versus Operative Treatment
Background: Management of displaced proximal humeral fractures is subject of ongoing debate. Objectives: We aimed to review our results of operative treatment of proximal humeral fractures compared to age-, sex, and fracture-type controlled conservative treatment. We hypothesized that there is no significant difference in upper-extremity specific disability between patients treated with operati...
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...
