Abstract EN
Proximal humeral fractures are common and most challenging, due to the complexity of the glenohumeral joint, especially in the geriatric population with impacted fractures, that the development of implants continues because currently the problems with their fixation are not solved.
Pre-, intra-, and postoperative assessments are crucial in management of those patients.
Finite element analysis, as one of the valuable tools, has been implemented as an effective and noninvasive method to analyze proximal humeral fractures, providing solid evidence for management of troublesome patients.
However, no review article about the applications and effects of finite element analysis in assessing proximal humeral fractures has been reported yet.
This review article summarized the applications, contribution, and clinical significance of finite element analysis in assessing proximal humeral fractures.
Furthermore, the limitations of finite element analysis, the difficulties of more realistic simulation, and the validation and also the creation of validated FE models were discussed.
We concluded that although some advancements in proximal humeral fractures researches have been made by using finite element analysis, utility of this powerful tool for routine clinical management and adequate simulation requires more state-of-the-art studies to provide evidence and bases.
