Medial Calcar Support and Radiographic Outcomes of Plate Fixation for Proximal Humeral Fractures
Plate fixation remains one of the most popular surgical procedures for treating proximal humeral fractures (PHFx); however, substantial rates of complications have been reported in the literature. The objectives of the study were to examine how medial calcar support (MCS) affects the radiographic ou...
