Introduction The surgical treatment of proximal humerus fractures remains a source of debate and research within orthopaedics. With the advent of locking compression plate technology, open reduction internal fixation (ORIF) of these injuries has become more popular.

Reported relative indications for proximal humerus fracture ORIF include, but are not limited to, the following: displacement of tuberosities greater than 5 mm, marginal articular fracture with greater than 2 mm of displacement, greater than 100 % displacement of the surgical neck, or a sufficiently large varus or valgus deformity [29, 30].

During an open reduction, orthopedic surgeons reposition the pieces of your fractured bone surgically so that your bones are back in their proper alignment. In a closed reduction, a doctor physically moves the bones back into place without surgically exposing the bone.

A humerus fracture is the medical name for breaking the bone in your upper arm (your humerus). Humerus fractures are usually caused by traumas like car accidents or falls. If you break your humerus, you might need surgery to repair your bone.
The humerus — also known as the upper arm bone — is a long bone that runs from the shoulder and scapula (shoulder blade) to the elbow.
