Is loss of fixation following locked plating of proximal humeral fractures related to the number of screws and their positions in the humeral head?
The aim of the study was to examine the correlation between the chosen position of screws and the complications observed in patients who underwent locked plating of proximal humeral fractures. We evaluated radiographs of 367 patients treated by locked-plating for proximal humeral fractures. Radiogra...
