Fractures of the proximal humerus are relatively common injuries in the elderly population.
Given the association between proximal humeral fractures and osteoporosis, elderly …

Introduction There is no consensus on the treatment of proximal humeral fractures. The goal
of the present retrospective observational study was to compare functional and radiological …

Background The objective of this study was to investigate the biomechanical effects of
medial fracture gap augmentation in locked plating of an unstable 2-part proximal humeral …

Fractures of the proximal humerus, in which the head is displaced into a valgus position,
have been distinguished from other 3-and 4-part fractures by their unique anatomic …

Five patients died and four were lost to follow-up. Eleven patients had 2-part, eleven 3-part
and eighteen 4-part fractures. Mean follow-up time was 21.7 months (range: 6-44 months) …

Objective: The aim of this study was to clinically and radiologically evaluate patients treated
with plate osteosynthesis with structural allografts for severely valgus-impacted fractures of …

Background: The valgus-impacted (VI) 4-part fractures are a subset of fractures of the
proximal humerus with a unique anatomic configuration characterized by a relatively lower …

Abstract The valgus-impacted (VI) 4-part fractures are a subset of fractures of the proximal
humerus with a unique anatomic configuration characterized by a relatively lower incidence …

Impacted valgus fractures of the proximal humerus are considered to be a special type
fracture, since impaction of the humeral head on the metaphysis with maintenance of the …

Department of Orthopaedics, Liaquat National Hospital, Karachi-Pakistan Background:
Proximal humeral fractures account for 4–5% of all fractures. Most fractures are minimally …
