Fractures of the proximal humerus represent about 5% of all fractures of the human skeleton and correspond to approximately 45% of all fractures of the humerus. Together with femoral neck fractures, fractures of the spine and fractures of the distal radius, they mainly affect postmenopausal women s...
Describe the typical clinical presentation of a patient with a proximal humerus fracture. Outline considerations that influence the management of proximal humerus fractures. Summarize the need for a an interprofessional team approach to caring for a patient with proximal humerus fractures. Introduction Pro...
Proximal humerus fractures (PHFs) frequently occur in the elderly and osteoporotic population, but these fractures are also common in individuals under 60 years of age [1]. Although appropriate treatment depends on the specific characteristics of the fracture and patient, conservative treatment for ...
Perinatal diaphyses –of the diaphyses of the six major long bones, the radius, ulna and fibula are smaller and less robust than the femur, humerus and tibia. Up to the age of about 2 months the ulna and fibula are of similar length but the radius is considerably shorter (see Table ...

The NCB® Proximal Humerus Plating System allows controlled targeting of cortical and cancellous screws with polyaxial freedom. The system allows the surgeon to lock the screws at any time during the procedure by using locking caps that are threaded into the plate holes. This locking construct...
These outcomes indicate substantial improvements in the range of motion, functional scores, and pain levels in patients following surgical treatment for proximal humerus fractures. In Figure 3, it can be observed that the range of motion deficits in a patient who presented with a fracture are satis...
Proximal humeral fractures are common injuries of the elderly patient with an increasing incidence [1,2,3,4]. Depending on factors such as patient age, pre-existing conditions, degree of dislocation, fracture morphology, and patient’s expectation, the decision between conservative treatment and surg...
