Optimization of Locking Plate Screw Angle Used to Treat 2-Part Proximal Humerus Fractures to Maintain Fracture Stability

Abstract

Proximal humerus fractures increase with the aging of the population, so due to the high failure rates of surgical treatments such as open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF), biomechanical studies seek to optimize the treatments and intervening factors to improve the quality of life of people undergoing these circumstances. The aim of the present study was to determine the optimal insertion angle configuration of screws used in 2-part proximal humerus fracture locking plate
