Allogenic bone grafting for augmentation in two-part proximal humeral fracture fixation in a high-risk patient population

Abstract: The augmentation of proximal humeral fracture fixation using a cancellous allograft might be a viable and reliable alternative to prevent early varus failure and to, moreover, lead to bony union in a non-compliant or high-risk patient population.

“…In our study, two-part fracture was the most prevalent type, as was similarly demonstrated by Euler et al [16] Consequently, the most common operative procedure was plate osteosynthesis (85.9%), which was followed by humeral head prosthesis (7.5%); these results are comparable to the retrospective study by Katthagen et al [38]. …”

“…Because it remains to be determined which group of patients benefits from implant augmentation [16, 47, 48], especially in angle stable osteosynthesis [33], some suggest multifragmentary fractures and elderly patients with a low BMD should be considered for this procedure [8]. From our point of view, we recommend patients with multiple comorbidities or fragmented calcar, as a result of the greater HTAD over time in this special subgroup, should be considered for the procedure.…”

“…In an effort to strengthen plating constructs, screw cement augmentation [15], bony autograft or allograft augmentation [16], and additional calcar screws or blades [17] have shown promising biomechanical and clinical results. However, each of these augmentation methods bears the increased risk of infection or impending difficulties in the potentiality of surgical revision.…”

“…Bei den restlichen 4 Patienten verlief die Transplantateinheilung unauffällig. Allgemein gesehen weisen Allografts, verwendet bei Frakturen oder in der Endoprothetik, am proximalen Humerus eine gute Transplantatinkorporation auf [29][30][31].…”
