Abstract

The successful treatment of fracture sequelae of the proximal humerus remains a major challenge in clinical practice. In this review, the classification published by Boileau in 2001 is critically evaluated based on the available literature and a treatment recommendation for the different pathologies is given. In addition, subclassifications for fracture sequelae type 1, type 2 and type 3 from our own research group are presented and treatment recommendations based on the suggested subgroups are given.
