Abstract

Proximal humerus fractures are commonly seen, yet the treatment of many displaced fractures presents significant challenges. Complications related to humeral head vascularity have caused a recent interest in minimally invasive techniques for fracture fixation. The technique of closed reduction and percutaneous fixation of proximal humerus fractures is difficult and demanding, and careful attention must be paid to appropriate indications and technical considerations. This article discusses the indications and techniques for percutaneous fixation of proximal humerus fractures.
