Hemiarthroplasty for head-split fractures of the proximal humerus.
Hemiarthroplasty has been recommended for 3- and 4-part fractures of the proximal humerus. Outcomes are most affected by final implant and tuberosity position. Reports of outcome and management of head-split fractures with humeral head replacement are lacking. The purpose of this study was to report the outcomes after humeral head replacement and the radiographic characteristics identified in h...
متن کاملShoulder hemiarthroplasty for fractures of the proximal humerus
Proximal humeral fractures were managed with primary hemiarthroplasty in 57 patients, 53 women (93%) and 4 men (7%) aged 51-87 years (mean 72.2). The mean follow-up period was 52 months (range 12-98), and the mean Constant score was 59.2 (range 38-76). Patients were very satisfied (n = 19); satisfied (n = 32) or dissatisfied with the outcome (n = 5). One patient required early revision surgery....
متن کاملHemiarthroplasty for three- and four-part proximal humerus fractures.
Displaced three- and four-part proximal humerus fractures are among the most challenging shoulder conditions to manage. Because of the risk of symptomatic malunion, nonunion, and humeral head osteonecrosis, surgical management is preferred. Locking plate technology has provided an alternative to hemiarthroplasty for certain three- and four-part fracture patterns, even in the setting of osteopen...
متن کاملProximal humerus fractures.
Proximal humerus fractures are among the most common fractures associated with osteoporosis. With an aging population, incidence of these fractures will only increase. The proximal humerus not only forms the lateral portion of the shoulder articulation but also has significant associations with musculoskeletal and neurovascular structures. As a result, fractures of the proximal humerus can sign...
متن کاملHemiarthroplasty for comminuted proximal humeral fractures.
PURPOSE To evaluate early functional outcomes of hemiarthroplasty for 3- or 4-part proximal humeral fractures. METHODS 16 men and 11 women aged 27 to 83 (mean, 56) years underwent hemiarthroplasty for comminuted 3-part (n=13) or 4-part (n=14) proximal humeral fractures. All the patients reported normal shoulder function prior to injury. The range of shoulder motion and muscle power were evalu...
