Does minimally invasive external fixation of proximal humerus fractures provide adequate stability? A biomechanical in vitro study

Abstract Introduction Proximal humerus fractures are usually treated with rigid angle-stable plates or nails. As an alternative, semi-rigid, minimally invasive systems have been developed for supportive fixation. A new system uses this principle with 2.5 mm partially threaded pins and external fixat...
