The techniques in reconstructing their fractures thus enabling their shoulder to return to normal activities. Proximal humeral locking plate is for fracture of proximal humerus. Reverse shoulder replacement is for more complicated fracture of proximal humerus for e.g., 3-part fracture proximal humerus
We would like to emphasis, unlike the other plate, the proximal humerus locking plate is a very low-profile and light in weight which can hold the fracture in place securely. Also, the earlier the surgery done after the fracture, the faster the patient will recover.
Post-Operation (proximal humerus fracture) X-ray
Pre-Operation (proximal humerus fracture) X-ray
The new generation of plates is low profile and contoured along the curvature of the bone. Our study has shown that these plates can remain without necessity for its subsequent removal.
