Abstract

The case report concerns a 67-year-old man who suffered an accident on a motorcycle, as a result of which he suffered a dented fracture of the right humeral head. After physical examination and imaging diagnostics, he was qualified for surgical treatment-arthrosurface of the patient's humeral head with the OVO surface replacement endoprosthesis. Right after the patient's surgical treatment, a period of 16-week rehabilitation was implemented, which, as a result, enabled the patient to achieve a full range of shoulder mobility, and the patient was able to return to all activities before the injury.
