Outcome Analysis of Locking Plate Fixation in Proximal Humerus Fracture.
INTRODUCTION Proximal humerus fractures account for approximately 5% of all fractures. Stable minimally displaced fractures can be treated nonoperatively but the management of displaced fractures remain controversial with various modalities of treatment available. Locking plates provide stable fixation and enable early postoperative mobilization specially in osteoporotic proximal humerus fractu...
متن کاملFEA of a proximal humerus fracture with a fixation plate
The fracture of the proximal humerus is the second most common injury to the upper extremity. In severe fractures, surgery may be necessary which can be in the form of a locking plate holding the bones in place. This study examines the effect of including a bonegraft alongside the locking plate. ScanIP and +ScanCAD (Simpleware Ltd) were used to segment the proximal humerus from a CT scan, and t...
متن کاملReverse Prosthesis for Proximal Humerus Fracture, Technique and Results
The reverse prosthesis has become a treatment of choice for glenohumeral osteoarthritis in a cuff-deficient shoulder. It allows restoration of mobility despite the loss of rotator cuff function. Hemiarthroplasty, the historical standard of care for proximal humeral fractures requiring replacement, fails most commonly because of tuberosity nonunion. Therefore, in the face of poor bone quality, t...
متن کاملNail Fixation of Proximal Humerus Fractures
Proximal humerus (PH) fractures are among the most fracture types. Surgery is indicated in displaced fractures. The charge-book for surgical management of PH fractures is restoring PH anatomy, obtaining stable osteosynthesis, and conserving PH vascularization. Proximal humerus nailing is an osteosynthesis technique we have been using since 2000. Our initial indication for using a nail for PH fr...
متن کاملTreatment of anterior fracture-dislocations of the proximal humerus by open reduction and internal fixation.
Over a seven-year period we treated a consecutive series of 58 patients, 20 men and 38 women with a mean age of 66 years (21 to 87) who had an acute complex anterior fracture-dislocation of the proximal humerus. Two patterns of injury are proposed for study based upon a prospective assessment of the pattern of soft-tissue and bony injury and the degree of devascularisation of the humeral head. ...
