  2. Proximal humerus fracture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proximal_humerus_fracture

    A proximal humerus fracture is a break of the upper part of the bone of the arm . [3] Symptoms include pain, swelling, and a decreased ability to move the shoulder . [ 1 ] Complications may include axillary nerve or axillary artery injury.

  3. Humerus fracture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Humerus_fracture

    Among proximal fractures, 80% are one-part, 10% are two-part, and the remaining 10% are three- and four-part. [22] The most common location of proximal fractures is at the surgical neck of the humerus. [3] Incidence of proximal fractures increases with age, with about 75% of cases occurring among people over the age of 60. [11]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Müller_AO_Classification...

    The Müller AO Classification of fractures is a system for classifying bone fractures initially published in 1987 [1] by the AO Foundation as a method of categorizing injuries according to therognosis of the patient's anatomical and functional outcome. "AO" is an initialism for the German "Arbeitsgemeinschaft für Osteosynthesefragen", the ...

  6. Surgical neck of the humerus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surgical_neck_of_the_humerus

    A fracture in this area is most likely to cause damage to the axillary nerve and posterior circumflex humeral artery. Damage to the axillary nerve affects function of the teres minor and deltoid muscles, resulting in loss of abduction of arm (from 15-90 degrees), weak flexion, extension, and rotation of shoulder as well as loss of sensation of ...

  7. Hill–Sachs lesion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hill–Sachs_lesion

    A Hill–Sachs lesion, or Hill–Sachs fracture, is a cortical depression in the posterolateral head of the humerus. It results from forceful impaction of the humeral head against the anteroinferior glenoid rim when the shoulder is dislocated anteriorly.

  8. Fracture sonography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fracture_sonography

    In patients younger than 12, proximal humerus fractures can be visualized due to the changes at the bone surface. [15] Because bone tumors can appear at this location, X-ray imaging is necessary following a fracture diagnosis. The standard procedure is the shoulder-SAFE algorithm. [15]
