In this lecture we are tackling proximal humerus fractures! We go through a case, shoulder anatomy, the Neer classification and treatment options. We hit all of the high yield points that you will encounter on your rotations and below we provided some questions that are frequently asked on rotations. Everything you need all in one video, brought to you by Student to Stud.
As always, if you have any questions, shoot us an email.
