Our hypothesis was that glenohumeral abduction and humeral internal rotation decrease the pull of the supraspinatus and subscapularis muscles, minimizing varus fracture deformity.Methods: A medial wedge osteotomy was performed in eight cadaveric shoulders to simulate a two-part fracture. The specimens were tested on a custom shoulder testing system. Humeral head varus was measured following physiologic muscle loading at neutral and 20\u00b0 humeral internal rotation at both 0\u00b0 and 20\u00b0 glenohumeral abduction.Results: There was a significant decrease in varus deformity caused by the subscapularis (p&lt;0.05) at 20\u00b0 abduction. Significantly increasing humeral internal rotation decreased varus deformity caused by the subscapularis (p&lt;0.05) at both abduction angles and that caused by the supraspinatus (p&lt;0.05) and infraspinatus (p&lt;0.05) at 0\u00b0 abduction only.Conclusions: Postoperative shoulder abduction and internal rotation can be protective against varus failure following proximal humeral fracture fixation as these positions decrease tension on the supraspinatus and subscapularis muscles. Use of a resting sling that places the shoulder in this position should be considered.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.5397\/cise.2022.00885","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,8,16]],"date-time":"2022-08-16T05:36:08Z","timestamp":1660628168000},"page":"282-287","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.5397\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Biomechanical
