The influence of bone mineral density and cortical index on the complexity of fractures of the proximal humerus

OBJECTIVES: The goal of this study is to investigate the relation between indicators of osteoporosis (i.e., bone mineral density (BMD), and Cortical Index (CI)) and the complexity of a fracture of the proximal humerus as a result of a low-energy trauma.
