Archives of orthopaedic and trauma surgery·2021

Proximal humerus fractures are common in elderly women. Achieving anatomical reduction and medial bone contact is crucial for successful surgical fixation, especially in varus-displaced fractures.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic surgery
  • Traumatology
  • Geriatric medicine

Context:

  • Proximal humerus fractures are prevalent, particularly in elderly females.
  • Open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) generally yield good results.
  • Challenges persist in treating complex proximal humerus fractures.

Purpose:

  • To review current challenges and treatment strategies for proximal humerus fractures.
  • To emphasize the importance of anatomical reduction and medial bone support.
  • To discuss indications for prosthetic replacement, including reverse shoulder arthroplasty.

Summary:

  • Varus-displaced fractures with medial column destruction pose significant challenges.
  • Secondary varus collapse and implant failure can occur without adequate reduction and support.

  • Intra-articular fractures and those with humeral head ischemia require careful management.
  • Prosthetic replacement is indicated when stable internal fixation is not achievable.
  • Reverse shoulder prostheses are a viable option for elderly patients over 75.

    • Impact:

    • Improved surgical outcomes for proximal humerus fractures.
    • Guidance on managing complex fracture patterns.
    • Informed decision-making regarding prosthetic joint replacement in geriatric populations.
