Angular stable intramedullary nail versus locking plate fixation of osteoporotic surgical neck proximal humerus fractures: A biomechanical comparison
The biomechanical performance of an angular-stable proximal humeral nail design was comparable, especially following fatigue, to locked plate/screw constructs in a synthetic osteoporotic two-part surgical neck proximal humerus fracture model.
