Surgical repair of PHF nonunion is a viable treatment strategy that can lead to consistent bony healing with outcomes comparable to those of patients who achieve fracture union following initial surgical repair of an acute proximal humerus fracture. Surgeons should be cognizant of mechanical considerations that may lead to early failure.
