To 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 Three and Four Part Proximal Humerus Fractures Treated with PHILOS (Proximal Humerus Interlocking System) Plate
Patients with three and four part fractures of the proximal humerus who were treated surgically between April and November 2012 using PHILOS were included in the study. Ten such cases, all presenting after acute injuries and operated by a single surgeon, were identified through the hospital medical record system and chart review. A data collection form was used to record information regarding p...
متن کاملOutcome 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 plates in proximal humerus fractures.
It is well known that proximal humerus fractures are among the three most frequent fracture types. Epidemiological invetsigations show that in people elder than 60 years the fracture of the proximal humerus is more frequent than fractures of the hip region (17). Over the last decades several techniques have been applied for treatment of proximal humerus fractures. Widely accepted is the initiat...
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...
