Greater Tuberosity Fracture of the Humerus: Arthroscopic Fixation
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Isolated fractures of the greater tuberosity are a relatively uncommon pathology and can lead to issues in strength, range of motion, and pain if not adequately reduced and fixed. Treatment decision mainly depends on the displacement of the fragment but most of the time it requires surgery because of the mechanics of the cuff that pulls on the fragment, making it unstable. If mistreated or unrecognized, the patients could develop chronic pain and limitations in range of motion that can lead to diminished function of the shoulder. Surgical alternatives include close reduction and percutaneous fixation, open or arthroscopic-assisted reduction, and internal fixation. In recent years, the advancements in shoulder arthroscopy have yielded arthroscopically assisted fixation techniques with encouraging results. The purpose of this Technical Note is to describe a suture bridge arthroscopic technique for treating a comminuted fracture of the greater tuberosity using multiple suture anchors. This technique has been found to be helpful in cases of greater tuberosity comminution to bridge the bony fragments.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
