Locking plating is a common surgical treatment of proximal humeral fractures with
satisfactory clinical results. Implant-related complications, especially screw-related, have …

Background The aim of this study was to investigate (1) whether fracture pattern and age are
associated with local bone quality (LBQ), and (2) whether a scoring system based on these …

Introduction: The aims of this study were to investigate (1) whether demographic factors
would be risk factors for severe proximal humerus fracture (PHF),(2) relationship of …

Aims Conservative treatment of moderately displaced proximal humeral head fractures
yields good clinical results, but secondary fragment displacement may occur. Identification of …

Background The increasing incidence of proximal humeral fractures (PHF) poses complex
challenges in determining the optimal therapeutic strategies due to the diverse fracture …

Purpose When compared to standard-length humeral stem in reverse total shoulder
arthroplasty (RTSA), short humeral stems in RTSA require good proximal humeral …

Aims In order to determine whether and for whom serial radiological evaluation is necessary
in one-part proximal humerus fractures, we set out to describe the clinical history and …

Background/aim: Impacted valgus proximal humerus fracture has been known to be
challenging in terms of treatment and outcomes since it was defined. Moreover, it is a type of …

Background: Operative management of proximal humeral fractures is still challenging. While
antegrade nailing has become a valid option in fracture fixation, risk factors for adverse …

Background Reconstruction of the proximal humerus with a locking plate is often the first
surgical approach for proximal humerus fractures. Screw cut-out is a common complication …
