Dual plating for fixation of humeral shaft fractures: A mechanical comparison of various combinations of plate lengths

Objective: The role of plate configuration was found inconclusive on the biomechanical effects of the plate size and hole number for dual plate constructions in humeral shaft fractures. The purpose of this study was to test the biomechanical stability of various dual plate constructions. Methods: Tw...
