Treatment of the humeral shaft fractures - minimally invasive osteosynthesis with bridge plate versus conservative treatment with functional brace: study protocol for a randomised controlled trial
(Biomed Central Ltd, 2013-08-07)
Background: Humeral shaft fractures account for 1 to 3% of all fractures in adults and for 20% of all humeral fractures. Non-operative treatment is still the standard treatment of isolated humeral shaft fractures, although ...
Reducao fechada e fixacao percutanea em fraturas supracondilianas do umero em criancas. Estudo retrospectivo de 32 casos
(1997-12-01)
This retrospective study evaluated 32 cases of supracondylar fractures of the humerus in children, according to percutaneous crossed Kirschner-wire fixation. Follow-up was performed by radiographs of Baumann's angle and ...
Minimal invasive ostheosintesis for treatment of diaphiseal transverse humeral shaft fractures
(Sociedade Brasileira de Ortopedia e Traumatologia, 2014-01-01)
OBJECTIVE:To evaluate patients with transverse fractures of the shaft of the humerus treated with indirect reduction and internal fixation with plate and screws through minimally invasive technique.METHODS:Inclusion criteria ...
Quality of life after antegrade intramedullary nail fixation of humeral fractures: a survey in a selected cohort of Brazilian patients
(Biomed Central Ltd, 2018)
Background: The treatment of humeral fractures remains controversial. Systematic reviews demonstrate similar results between dynamic compression plating and locked intramedullary nailing in the surgical treatment of these ...
O emprego de hastes intramedulares bloqueadas no tratamento das fraturas diafisárias do úmero
(Sociedade Brasileira de Ortopedia e Traumatologia, 2005-01-01)
Clinical and radiographic outcomes of 31 patients with humeral diaphyseal fractures submitted to surgery with intramedullary shafts were studied. From these, four patients presented fractures at the shaft insertion site ...
Osteossíntese das fraturas da extremidade proximal do úmero com sistema de placa de ângulo fixo com parafusos bloqueados: técnica e resultados
(Sociedade Brasileira de Ortopedia e Traumatologia, 2009-04-01)
OBJECTIVE: Describe the results of proximal humeral fractures surgically treated with the Philos locking plate system. METHOD: Between March 2003 and October 2004 we prospectively reviewed 24 of 26 patients with proximal ...
Reproducibility of three classifications of proximal humeral fractures
(Instituto Israelita de Ensino e Pesquisa Albert Einstein, 2012-12-01)
OBJECTIVE: To propose a new system for classifying proximal humeral neck fractures, and to evaluate intra- and interobserver agreement using the Neer system that is the most commonly used in the area and the Arbeit ...
Minimally Invasive Osteosynthesis with a Bridge Plate Versus a Functional Brace for Humeral Shaft Fractures
(Journal Bone Joint Surgery, 2017)
Background: Nonoperative treatment has historically been considered the standard for fractures of the shaft of the humerus. Minimally invasive bridge-plate osteosynthesis for isolated humeral shaft fractures has been proven ...
A mechanical comparison between conventional and modified angular plates for proximal humeral fractures
(Elsevier B.V., 2008-07-01)
The objective of this study is to present a modified angular blade plate for fixing 2-part and even 3-part fractures of the proximal humerus, as well as the results of the comparative mechanical test between the conventional ...
