“…A HHPS (HHPS) was observed in the radiographs of 5 patients (21%), which is consistent with the incidence of HHPS found in the literature after acute proximal humerus fractures. 4 In the present study all 5 patients with HHPS showed spontaneous resolution of the neuropraxia of the axillary nerve and consecutive complete resolution of the HHPS. It is very important to be aware that HHPS is a radiological finding in patients with (transient) axillary nerve palsy and that it is not associated with shoulder instability.…”

“…However, for patients with humeral head defects greater than 25%, conservative treatment is prone to result in shoulder joint deformity and loss of function, severely impacting the quality of life. Therefore, active surgical intervention should be chosen ( Cirino et al, 2022 ).…”
