Factors associated with maintaining reduction following locking plate fixation of proximal humerus fractures: a population-based retrospective cohort study

Factors associated with maintaining reduction following locking plate fixation of proximal humerus fractures: a population-based retrospective cohort study

Background: Loss of reduction (LoR) can occur after locking plate fixation of proximal humerus fractures (PHFs). This study determined biomechanical features of fracture fixation associated with preventing LoR postoperatively. One-year reoperation rates were also compared between those with/without...
