چکیده
Periprosthetic fractures is a severe complication after joint replacement. The rapidly increase of reverse shoulder arthroplasty surgeries, periprosthetic humeral fractures, which are described as rare, may increase in the near future. We report the case of displaced humeral fracture bellow the stem of reverse shoulder prosthesis. The patient was an 85-year-old woman who had a total shoulder replacement 6 years previously. The surgical solution consisted of plate osteossynthesis and cerclage. This report describes an unprecedented case in Brazilian literature; and gives an overview of the existing literature including this injury classification. RESUMO As fraturas periprotéticas do ombro representam uma grave complicação após a substituição da articulação. Devido ao rápido aumento do número de cirurgias de artroplastia reversa no ombro, as fraturas periprótese do úmero, descritas como raras, podem aumentar no futuro próximo. Descrevemos um caso de fratura desviada do úmero abaixo do componente umeral de uma artroplastia reversa. A paciente era uma mulher de 85 anos de idade, que tinha uma artroplastia reversa do ombro há 6 anos. O tratamento cirúrgico consistiu em osteossíntese com placa, parafusos e cerclagem. Os objetivos do presente trabalho foram reportar um caso inédito na literatura brasileira, e revisar a literatura existente e as classificações da lesão.

BACKGROUND Proximal humeral fractures are common in older patients. The majority are minimally displaced and are associated with good outcomes after nonoperative treatment. Poorer outcomes are associated with displaced, multipart fractures. There is no clear benefit from surgical fracture fixation compared to nonoperative treatment. Replacement of the fractured humeral head with a hemiarthropla...
