Outcome Analysis of Locking Plate Fixation in Proximal Humerus Fracture.
INTRODUCTION Proximal humerus fractures account for approximately 5% of all fractures. Stable minimally displaced fractures can be treated nonoperatively but the management of displaced fractures remain controversial with various modalities of treatment available. Locking plates provide stable fixation and enable early postoperative mobilization specially in osteoporotic proximal humerus fractu...
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 کاملTo Detect the Outcome of Proximal Humerus Fractures Treated With a Locking Proximal Humerus Plate
Aim: To evaluate the safety, usefulness, and practical outcome of the locked proximal humerus plate (LPHP) to treat proximal humerus fractures. Setting: Patel hospital Karachi, Indus Hospital Karachi and Civil Hospital Karachi. Methods: Over a 08 month period, 64 consecutive patients were treated with a LPHP for an unstable or displaced proximal humerus fracture. Demographic data, trauma mechan...
متن کاملEarly Results of the A.L.P.S. Proximal Humerus Locking Plate
Background Open reduction internal fixation of displaced 3 and 4-part proximal humerus fractures is an effective treatment modality particularly for the younger age group, but it is not without complications. Fixed angled locking screw plates are the mainstay of fixation. The A.L.P.S. Proximal Humerus Plating System is a new implant that has smooth locking pegs in the place of humeral head scre...
متن کاملCurrent concepts in locking plate fixation of proximal humerus fractures
Despite numerous available treatment strategies, the management of complex proximal humeral fractures remains demanding. Impaired bone quality and considerable comorbidities pose special challenges in the growing aging population. Complications after operative treatment are frequent, in particular loss of reduction with varus malalignment and subsequent screw cutout. Locking plate fixation has ...
