Purpose: To assess the feasibility of total shoulder denervation through two proposed incisions.
Methods: Total shoulder denervation was performed through an extended delta-pectoral approach and a transverse dorsal approach at the spine of the scapula. The study involved six cadavers.
Background: This study examined the clinical outcomes of fixation of displaced fractures of the proximal humerus using a trans-deltoid approach.
Material And Methods: Twenty patients (13 male and 7 female) were treated with this technique, with a mean age of the patients of 38.85 years (range, 19 to 64 years).

Background: Locking-plate osteosynthesis is a well-established treatment option for proximal humerus fractures. The standard approach is delta-pectoral, but few data using the minimally invasive antero-lateral delta-split approach exist. The aim of the study was to prospectively evaluate shoulder function and radiological outcome after a minimally invasive antero-lateral delta-split approach.
