[Ortho] Comminuted fracture proximal humerus

[orthoforum на weborto.net]

Dear Dr. Neeraj Bijlani!

We don't see nonunion in this part of humerus too often. If he has now 
not very bad range of motion in the joint, may by you can try 
conservative treatment with a traction cast bandge for the first time 
(1-2 weeks), and then intensive physiotherapy. For the operative 
treatment I would like to take the Proximal Humeral Nail if it is 
possible (not an intraarticular fracture). This implant is by my opinion 
less invasive.

Best regards, Ivan Sirotin.
