Specific Radiologic Risk Factors for Implant Failure and Osteonecrosis of the Humeral Head after Interlocking Nailing with the Targon PH<sup>+</sup> of Proximal Humeral Fractures in a Middle to Old Population

Specific Radiologic Risk Factors for Implant Failure and Osteonecrosis of the Humeral Head after Interlocking Nailing with the Targon PH<sup>+</sup> of Proximal Humeral Fractures in a Middle to Old Population

Background: Operative management of proximal humeral fractures is still challenging.
