Brief Summary

Proximal humerus fractures are particularly frequent injuries and represent 6% of all fractures with an overall incidence of 63/100.000 in human. The goal is to assess our institutional evidence based algorithm for treatment of proximal humeral fractures. Objective(s):

1.Test the algorithm in terms of clinical applicability and clinical outcome
2.Compare general outcome and general complication/revision rate to the literature.
