title: [Partial prosthesis of the shoulder joint--personal experience].
abstract: Hemiarthroplasty of the shoulder is a treatment of choice for severe types of proximal humeral fractures. From 2001 to 2003, 8 hemiarthroplasties were performed at the University Clinic for Orthopaedic Surgery and Traumatology, Clinical Center Novi Sad. The aim of this study was to retrospectively assess functional outcomes of those patients. By determing the factors that affected the outcome, we would try to improve results of future patients.
