Proximal humeral fractures in Finland: regional differences in incidence and methods of treatment

In Finland, the treatment of PHFs did not differ fundamentally between hospital districts and a general evidence-based shift in treatment practice was shown. We found regional variation in the incidence of PHFs, and it seems that the higher incidence of PHFs is concentrated in Eastern Finland.
