Article Abstract

The authors have considered 735 fractures of the proximal humerus in 748 patients, with 22% of fractures in 60-70 years old subjects. According to Neer's classification type 3 (surgical neck's fracture) and type 4 (surgical neck's fracture with greater and/or lesser tuberosity fracture) are the most frequent. The Desault bandage and the shoulder spica cast have been the preferred methods of treatment. The follow-up ranged between 12 and 1 year (on the average 5.8 Years). The authors have noted that the good results reduced in proportion to the increasing of the fragments' number and in the four part displacement fractures the bad results were of 55% in this research.
