Abstract:
We report a rare pathological proximal humerus fracture caused by marginal zone lymphoma. The patient underwent reverse total shoulder arthroplasty followed by systemic therapy. At 15-month follow-up, functional recovery was excellent with no recurrence. Low-energy fractures without trauma history warrant suspicion of underlying pathology.
