Fracture Fixation of the Shoulder

Home / Services / Shoulder & Elbow Surgery / Fracture Fixation of the Shoulder

Dr Maguire treats fractures of the shoulder either non-operatively or with surgery.

Undisplaced fractures of the proximal humerus can be managed with sling immobilzation for 6 weeks and then mobilization with physiotherapy.

Displaced fractures of the proximal humerus may require ORIF (Open Reduction and Internal Fixation) or Shoulder Replacement.
