Prospective study comparing between plate osteosynthesis and antegrade interlocking nailing its functional and radiological outcome in treating humeral shaft fractures
Abstract:Humeral shaft fractures are common injuries making upto 1-3% of all fractures. They are widely treated by conservative methods leading to higher rates of non-union. Henceforth surgeons tend to perform operative procedures to treat them. To statistically analyse and compare the functional and radiological outcome of two treatment modalities of humeral shaft fractures, they are plate osteosyntheis and antegrade intramedullary nailing. A total of 22 patients of humeral shaft fractures were operated by either of t… Show more
