Overview

Retrospective cohort study shows 89% survivorship free from revision surgery in proximal humerus fractures, indicating the importance of proper alignment.

Key Points

  • Survivorship free from revision surgery at 5 years was 89%, highlighting the effectiveness of locked plating for proximal humerus fractures.
  • Mean ASES score was 81±21, with other functional outcomes showing significant improvements after treatment in 153 patients.
  • Retrospective cohort study assessed 153 patients with various fracture types, focusing on the impact of reduction on outcomes.
  • Preoperative factors like female sex and fracture dislocation were linked to a higher risk of surgical failure and complications.
