DOI: 10.1007/s43465-020-00124-4
Abstract: Background The purpose of this study was to identify complications after operative treatment of distal humerus fractures with anatomic, pre-contoured, locking distal humeral plates. We hypothesized that these fractures have high complication rates despite the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.injury.2019.11.030
Abstract: BACKGROUND Treatment for proximal humerus fractures remains controversial. Studies of open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) rarely account for reduction quality, while surgeon experience and sagittal plane reduction remain unstudied. In a retrospective case series… read more here.
