A traumatic or pathologic injury to the humerus in which the continuity of the humerus is broken.
The proximal humerus can be considered to consist of the humeral head, the tuberosities, and the humeral shaft ( Fig. 5-1 ). tuberosities. The surgical neck lies between the tuberosities and the shaft. The rotator cuff (see Figs. 3-2 and 4-1)
proximal humerus fractures. Many internal fixation techniques have been figure-of-8 tension band wire or suture, and plate and screws. This construct. The proximal humerus can be considered to consist of the humeral head, the tuberosities, and the humeral shaft ( Fig. 5-1 ).
3-PART FRACTURE: This is when the proximal humerus is broken into three pieces, and there are then two fracture lines on x-ray. This most often involves the greater tuberosity and the surgical neck of the humerus.

When a fracture happens, it's classified as either open or closed: Open fracture (also called compound fracture): The bone pokes through the skin and can be seen, or a deep wound exposes the bone through the skin. Closed fracture (also called simple fracture). The bone is broken, but the skin is intact.

A proximal humerus fracture also referred to as a broken humerus, is a break of the shoulder at the top of the upper arm bone. The bone usually fractures just below the ball of the shoulder joint. This can occur in patients of all ages from a variety of traumatic causes.
The humerus is the bone in your upper arm that's located between your elbow and your shoulder. Its main function is to provide support for your shoulder and a wide variety of movements for your arm.
The top of the humerus forms part of the shoulder joint with its connection to the scapula (shoulder blade), and the bottom of the humerus forms part of the elbow with the forearm. The middle of the humerus is called the humeral shaft and fracture of this part of the bone is called a humeral shaft fracture.
