Surgical Management of Proximal Humeral Fractures: The Emerging Role of Reverse Total Shoulder Arthroplasty

Acute proximal humeral fractures are common injuries in elderly patients. These fractures can lead to significant pain and functional loss. Nonoperative treatment offers high rates of satisfactory function and pain relief in the majority of fractures, particularly in elderly...read more

The Rotator Interval of the Shoulder: Implications in the Treatment of Shoulder Instability

Biomechanical studies have shown that repair or plication of rotator interval (RI) ligamentous and capsular structures decreases glenohumeral joint laxity in various directions. Clinical outcomes studies have reported successful outcomes after repair or plication of these structures in patients...read more

Open Reduction Internal Fixation has Fewer Short-Term Complications Than Shoulder Arthroplasty for Proximal Humeral Fractures

BACKGROUND: Open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF), hemiarthroplasty (HA), and anatomic or reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA/RTSA) are surgical treatment options for proximal humeral fractures (PHFx). Little is known about comparative complication rates. We aimed to determine whether ORIF...read more
