Abstract
In proximal humerus reconstructions, osteoarticular massive allograft (OA) allows a biologic reattachment of tendineous structures of the host providing stability and functional recovery. Allograft-prosthesis composites (APC) are more technically demanding, but functional advantages with new prosthetic design are expected with lower fracture and failure rate with time. We compared the outcome of patients treated with OA reconstruction .File in questo prodotto:
