Fractures of the
upper end of the shoulder bone, humerus, especially
if it is broken into 3 or 4 pieces as per Neers
classification are very challenging to treat. This is
a case of a 70 year old lady whose humerus was fractured
into 4 pieces.
The surgical approach, the steps of
reduction, placement of implants and the necessity for
the bone graft can all now be pre-planned using the
model.
