ANALYSIS OF THE LONG-TERM RESULTS AFTER PRACTICE IN PATIENTS WITH PROXIMAL HUMERUS FRACTURE

Abstract

Fractures of the proximal part of the humerus account for 5-6% among injuries to the human musculoskeletal system, up to 50 of per 100,000 inhabitants, however, according to statistics from the last 30 years, this pointer has been observed to grow several times. Usually, injuries of this type occur mostly in older (over 50-60 years old) patients, most often against the background of osteoporosis, and according to the mechanism of injury, they occur as a result of a low-energy injury.
In injuries of the proximal part of the humerus, the mechanism of cross-linking of the shoulder girdle is disrupted, and it becomes difficult to restore the functional activity of the shoulder joint. As a result of research by scientists, in addition to restoring the anatomical axis and length of the humerus in fractures of the proximal part, the idea is being pushed forward that it is necessary to restore the normal anatomical attachment points of the rotator cuff of the proximal part of the humerus, otherwise, as a result of fractures, it will not be possible to restore the full functionality of the shoulder joint.
