Minimal Invasive Approach to Proximal Humerus Fractures with Diaphysis Extension in Elderly
نویسنده
چکیده
Surgical treatment of proximal humeral fractures with diaphysis extension continues to be a challenge especially in osteoporotic patients. Anatomic locking plates have been used with satisfactory results. The aim of this study was to

Minimal Invasive Plate Osteosynthesis (MIPO) Technique Using Anterolateral Approach for Treating Closed Proximal Humerus Fracture.
ABSTRACT Proximal humerus fracture is the second most common fracture of the upper extremity and presents several unique problems such as anatomical complexity, high risk of avascular necrosis, minimal bone stock for purchase, significant morbidity, and lack of a universally accepted treatment. Recent treatments for proximal humerus fractures include use of minimally invasive plate osteosynthys...
متن کاملExtended Paratricipital Approach for Intra-articular Fractures of the Distal Humerus.
This article describes an extensile surgical exposure to the distal humerus that is suitable for complex fractures involving the articular surface and extending into the humeral diaphysis proximal to the radial nerve. This method combines 2 approaches: olecranon osteotomy and the lateral paratricipital approach. This combination allows an appropriate exposure of both the articular surface and t...
متن کاملAxillary Artery Injury Associated with Proximal Humerus Fracture: A Report of 6 Cases
Proximal humerus fractures are common, but associated injury of the axillary artery is uncommon. The majority of published blunt traumatic axillary artery injuries are associated with anterior glenohumeral dislocation; a few are associated with isolated proximal humerus fractures or fracture-dislocation. Experience within our institution demonstrates that axillary artery injury is often unreco...
متن کاملMinimal invasive ostheosintesis for treatment of diaphiseal transverse humeral shaft fractures
OBJECTIVE To evaluate patients with transverse fractures of the shaft of the humerus treated with indirect reduction and internal fixation with plate and screws through minimally invasive technique. METHODS Inclusion criteria were adult patients with transverse diaphyseal fractures of the humerus closed, isolated or not occurring within 15 days of the initial trauma. Exclusion criteria were p...

Optimal treatment of 3 and 4-part fractures of the proximal humerus is still controversial and is accompanied with many complications. These fractures can be treated with variety of osteosynthetic methods especially in younger ages, but some complications such as limited range of motions, mal:::union:::s and avascular necrosis are common. Hemiarthroplasty can be used in old patients wit...
