Contemporary Management of Proximal Humeral Fractures.
Proximal humerus fractures (PHFs) are common injuries managed by orthopaedic surgeons. Treatment for PHFs remains somewhat controversial. This review article discusses indications, techniques, and outcomes for several modes of contemporary management of PHFs including nonsurgical treatment, surgical fixation, and reverse shoulder arthroplasty.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons was established in the fall of 1993 by the Academy in response to its membership’s demand for a clinical review journal. Two issues were published the first year, followed by six issues yearly from 1994 through 2004. In September 2005, JAAOS began publishing monthly issues.
Each issue includes richly illustrated peer-reviewed articles focused on clinical diagnosis and management. Special features in each issue provide commentary on developments in pharmacotherapeutics, materials and techniques, and computer applications.
