| Core Tip |
This study examines humeral retroversion in infants who sustained neonatal brachial plexus palsy and suffer from an internal rotation contracture. The existing common treatment options all strive for better function of the upper extremity through an improved position of the hand in space. Therefore, a thorough understanding of the development of the pathogenesis of this injury is of importance. We found a significant reduction of humeral retroversion in our study group (mean difference 26.8). When treatment becomes warranted and contralateral humeral version measurements differ greatly, a humeral derotational osteotomy probably offers the best improvement regarding the position of the hand. |
