Outcome of locking compression plating for proximal humeral fractures: a prospective study.
PURPOSE To evaluate the outcome of open reduction and internal fixation using locking compression plates for proximal humeral fractures. METHODS 54 men and 16 women aged 28 to 79 (mean, 54) years underwent open reduction and internal fixation using a locking compression plate for closed 2-part (n=22), 3-part (n=38), and 4-part (n=10) proximal humeral fractures. 10 of the patients also had dis...
متن کاملPlating of proximal humeral fractures.
The optimal treatment for proximal humeral fractures is controversial. Few data exist concerning the influence of the surgical approach on the outcome. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical and radiological outcomes of proximal humeral fractures treated with locking plate fixation through a deltopectoral vs an anterolateral deltoid-splitting approach. Of 86 patients who met the...
متن کاملThe Outcome of Proximal Humeral Locking Plates in the Management of Three and Four Part Proximal Humeral Fractures in Special Cohort of Young Patients in High Velocity Trauma
Background: Locking plate fixation provides satisfactory outcome following proximal humerus fractures. None of theprevious studies selectively evaluate the outcome in young patients. This study evaluates outcome of locking platesystem in the treatment of acute three- and four-part fractures in young patients.Methods: In this prospective study we included all patients who were less than 60 years...
متن کاملA 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 کاملStability of the Proximal Humeral Fracture Treated with Compression, Locking Plating and Inlay Allograft Struts
INTRODUCTION: Stability of the proximal humeral fracture can be difficult to achieved if osteoporosis or severe loss of bone stock is presented. Recently, locking plate technology has included these fractures, but appears that may not be predictable as hoped. Recent studies have demonstrated the importance of both reduction and mechanical support of the medial column in proximal humerus fractur...
