“…It is mandatory to understand the structures involved and their position, the amount of misalignment and the functional and biomechanical consequences. X-Ray, CT and MRI are recommended 17 . The classification of proximal humerus malunions proposed by Beredjiklian et al 18 describes as Type 1 a misalignment of greater or lesser tuberosity of more than 1 cm, as Type 2 an incongruity of the articular surface and as Type 3 a malunion of the tuberosities and the humeral head relative to the shaft.…”

Proximal humerus fractures are common injuries and the development of nonunion or malunion is infrequent. However, these complications can occur with both operative and non-operative treatment of the fracture. A complete evaluation of these patients must include an investigation of the original fracture, bone and soft tissue quality as well as an extensive radiological study with X-Ray, CT and MRI. Asymptomatic and low demanding patients can benefit from conservative treatment, otherwise surgery is necessary. Multiple treatment options exist with no consensus upon the gold standard. The management of these complications is case-specific and needs extensive pre-operative planning. Arthroscopic procedures, osteotomies and bone grafting are viable joint preservation techniques. Bone loss or articular pathology are indications for joint replacement. The surgical treatment of nonunion and malunion is challenging even for experienced surgeons.

“…Based on localization of the malunion, the treatment can widely vary (Fig. 1) 7,[15][16][17][18][19] . However, as with any kind of revision surgery, the treatment of malunion has a higher complication rate and lower functional outcome than treatment of the acute fracture.…”

“…There is limited data on the outcomes of hemiarthroplasty or anatomic TSA for proximal humerus malunion in the published literature (Dines et al, 1993;Norris et al, 1995;Boileau et al, 2001Boileau et al, , 2006Antuña et al, 2002;Mansat et al, 2004;Abdelhady, 2010;Moineau et al, 2012;Jacobson et al, 2014) (Table 16.1). It appears that anatomic tuberosity healing is important in achieving acceptable results.…”

“…Proximal humeral fracture sequelae (PHFS) are a cause of shoulder stiffness, significant chronic pain, and disability. 1 , 2 , 11 , 18 , 19 , 24 In 2001, Boileau et al classified PHFS into 4 main types according to the level of the deformity (intracapsular or extracapsular) and to the status of the tuberosities. 7 In 2012, the same author updated the classification system by adding 4 different subgroups to type 1, that is, type 1A in presence of osteonecrosis, type 1B for post-traumatic arthritis, type 1C and 1D for valgus and varus malunion, respectively.…”
