A Pitfall in Fixation of Distal Humeral Fractures with Pre-Contoured Locking Compression Plate
Anatomically precontoured locking plates are intended to facilitate the fixation of articular fractures and particularly those associated with osteoporosis. Fractures of the distal humerus are relatively uncommon injuries where operative intervention can be exceptionally challenging. The distal humeral trochlea provides a very narrow anatomical window through which to pass a fixed-angle locking...
متن کاملThe Results of Internal Fixation of Proximal Humeral Osteoporotic Fractures with PHILOS Locking Plate.
BACKGROUND In the last fifty years since plate and screw osteosynthesis has been implemented in fracture treatment, osteosporotic bone fractures were observed as a special problem. Due to special histologic, anatomic, physical and biomehanic properties of osteoporotic changed bone the laws of biomechanics suggest that stable osteosynthesis for osteoporotic bone is necessary to increase the cont...
متن کاملPhilos plate fixation for proximal humeral fractures.
PURPOSE To evaluate the efficacy of Philos plate fixation for proximal humerus fractures. METHODS Functional outcomes of 31 men and 27 women aged 36 to 73 (mean, 61) years who underwent Philos plate fixation for proximal humeral fractures were retrospectively reviewed. Indications for surgery were 3-part (n=33) or 4-part (n=25) closed proximal humeral fractures with angulation of more than 45...
متن کاملLocking plate fixation for proximal humerus fractures.
Locking plates are increasingly used to surgically treat proximal humerus fractures. Knowledge of the bone quality of the proximal humerus is important. Studies have shown the medial and dorsal aspects of the proximal humeral head to have the highest bone strength, and this should be exploited by fixation techniques, particularly in elderly patients with osteoporosis. The goals of surgery for p...
متن کاملInternal fixation of proximal humeral fractures.
Fractures of the proximal humerus are common, especially in elderly individuals, and are usually classified according to Neer into fractures having one, two, three, or four parts with or without an associated dislocation or an injury splitting the humeral head. This article is intended to assist the surgeon in selecting and using techniques for internal fixation of these fractures. The use of o...
