Proximal Humerus Fracture

In this lecture we are tackling proximal humerus fractures! We go through a case, shoulder anatomy, the Neer classification and treatment options. We hit all of the high yield points that you will encounter on your rotations and below we provided some questions that are frequently asked on rotations. Everything you need all in one video, brought to you by Student to Stud.
As always, if you have any questions, shoot us an email.

3:35 pm. A most informative lecture. I just wish I knew more about the subject

[@fausykamtaura4563]

Yes highly debated but us no idea but tears to roll down in confusions

Thank you so much helping me see my daughters Humerous Fracture....her pains at night

[@peggy5003]

Thank you. I'm currently in a sling and approaching 3 weeks since I fractured my proximal humerus greater tuberosity.i have been checking out videos to see exactly what it means and treatments. This was useful.

[@dorondori4499]

Please tell me how do you feel. I broke 5 weeks ago i felt down from my bicycle. ו can't raise my hand at all. Can you raise up your hands?

[@peggy5003]

@Doron Dori I'm great now. I was in a sling for six weeks. Then I did two or three months of physical therapy. It's been over a year, and I'm great. Have 98% movement. I should probably work on weight lifting a little, but I do as well as I did before the break. I'm 69. Yes, I have no problem lifting my hand or reaching behind me.

Great work sir, cant wait for the next orthopaedic lecture

[@AhmedAhmed-zp9fw]

Thanks for this valuable video

[@arielchasipanta2237]

Great video thanks man 🙏🏻

[@simplicekome7300]

Awesome, thanks very much. Can you do a video on tibia plafond fractures?

[@makaramsrinivasan1305]

Excellent

Please upload more videos like thissss

Hi Sir on april-2021 ORIF was done on my humerus fracture. Plates and screw are inserted. Screws and plates are part of the body for life time or it should remove? Kindly suggest me sir.

[@Saraangharad88]

I've been very badly managed my fracture has rotated and dropped so now it's it's angulated and 8 weeks later I'm still in sling and can only lift my arm 35 degrees

Hi Sara ,how are you now ?

[@pardeepgupta918]

Do make a video on thought process of going through revision thr n tkr from resident training point of view if possible.

[@studenttostud8789]

Will try to make a video at some point.

[@justadude8369]

did you get grashey and AP mixed up at 09:00? I thought grashey view there is no overlap between the glenoid and head of humerus?

[@studenttostud8789]

Thanks for pointing this out! you are correct

[@justadude8369]

What is Proximal Humerous undisplaced means?? Somebody if know share th answer. thanks in advance ..

[@studenttostud8789]

A nondisplaced proximal humerus fracture is when there is a fracture but this has not caused the normal anatomical alignment of the proximal humerus to change. For example, say there is a fracture through the surgical neck but the shaft and humeral head have maintained a normal head-shaft angle and the humeral head articular surface is still articulating with the glenoid, this would be a non-displaced fracture. You can use this same idea with any fracture, if the normal bony alignment and position has not changed, it is non-displaced.
