| Abstract | Background The ideal method for the surgical treatment of proximal humeral fractures has not yet been found. We therefore conducted a retrospective matched-pair analysis and compared osteosynthesis with open reduction and internal fixation and that with an angular stable plate with minimally invasive, closed reduction, percutaneous fixation with the Humerusblock. Methods During a study period of 3 years, we matched 30 patients treated with angular stable plates (group 1) for age, gender, fracture type and handedness (dominant or nondominant) to 30 patients treated using the Humerusblock (group 2). At a minimal follow-up of 24 months, clinical evaluation included the Constant-Murley score, the UCLA score and the Simple Shoulder Test. Subjective pain was evaluated using the VAS pain scale. Patients were asked to rate their subjective satisfaction of final outcome as excellent, good, satisfied or dissatisfied. Results The mean CMS, UCLA score and SST differed significantly between groups 1 and 2 (60.9 vs 71.9, p < 0.01), (25.1 vs 29.5, p < 0.01) and (8.1 vs 9.4, p < 0.05), respectively. The VAS pain score was significantly lower in group 2 than in group 1 (1.2 vs 2.4; p < 0.01). The mean abduction (109.7° vs 133.7°; p < 0.01) and anterior flexion (128.3° vs 145.7°; p < 0.01) were significantly worse in group 1. The mean operation time was significantly shorter in group 2 (117.3 vs 72.1, p < 0.01). Complications occurred in 30 % (group 1) and 23 % (group 2) of patients. Conclusions In this study, the functional outcome is superior in the Humerusblock group. However, the general outcome after surgical treatment of 3-and 4-part fractures is moderate, and the complication rate has to be considered, even though it can be lowered with the use of minimally invasive implants. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
