Summary

In the investigators' prospective randomized study, the investigator will investigate the effect of different bandage types on functional and radiological results of proximal humerus fractures over 18 years of age, for whom conservative treatment is decided.

In recent studies, it has been shown that surgical treatment in proximal humerus fractures has a high complication rate and is also not superior to conservative treatments in terms of functional results. Therefore, the importance of conservative treatment is increasing day by day in this group of fractures, especially in elderly patients with high risk for surgery.

In these studies in the literature, the method in conservative treatment is not clearly specified, and the investigator will apply 3 different bandages to adjust the rotation of the shoulder in 3 different ways during the investigators' conservative treatment. The investigator will compare functional and radiological results between these groups.
