“90/90” Plating of proximal humerus fracture—a technical note
2019
Introduction
While locking plates have markedly improved fixation of proximal humerus fractures, a cohort of fractures remains difficult to treat. This cohort has been identified as fractures with marked medial comminution and varus deformity. Loss of reduction and fixation failure are the most frequently reported complications for this cohort. We report the use of an orthogonal 1/3 tubular plate to augment the proximal humerus locking plate.
