Background: The incidence of secondary displacement in fractures of the greater tuberosity of the humerus remains high, irrespective of whether conservative or surgical treatment is administered.
The humerus is the upper arm bone. Located in the upper arm, the humerus assists in gross movements and stabilization of the shoulder joint. Learn more.
Proximal humerus HA is classically indicated for elderly subjects with low to moderate functional demand, or patients around the sixth decade of life who are not candidates for open reduction and ...
Ricardo Donners et al found in a study that the greater humeral tuberosity erosions, infraspinatus muscle tendonitis, capsulitis, synovitis, and bone marrow oedema were common MRI findings in chronic ...
Conclusions: Menopause-related cortical loss of the humeral head mainly occurred in the lateral part of the greater tuberosity. The increased rate of humeral bone loss in the greater tuberosity may ...
Moreover, tuberosity healing provides better shoulder function than failed tuberosity healing after treatment with HA for a proximal humeral fracture. For unreconstructable distal humeral fractures, ...
Distal humeral fractures in adults are relatively uncommon injuries that require surgical intervention in most cases. There is a lack of consensus regarding the best management of distal humeral ...
In this case, the complex humeral deformity resulted from an asymmetric physeal arrest from a proximal humerus UBC resection 11 years earlier. We have used this technique for surgical correction of ...
