Schema of tuberoplasty for valgus malunion of 3-part proximal humeral fracture. (A) Intact proximal humerus. (B) Valgus impaction results in superior displacement of the greater tuberosity and effectively decreases the resting tension in the rotator cuff. As a result, force generation is compromised. (C) The rotator cuff is detached, and a tuberoplasty is performed with a burr. (D) Reattachment of the rotator cuff laterally results in restoration of the rotator cuff length– tension relation. Reproduce from Lädermann et al., with permission.
