Overview

Prospective study demonstrates improved functional and radiological outcomes in proximal humerus fractures using PHILOS plate, highlighting treatment effectiveness.

Key Points

  • The functional outcome improved significantly over time, with a notable increase in NEER score from 68.64 at 3 months to 85.24 at 9 months.
  • Radiological outcomes were good, with 86.36% showing improvement at 9 months compared to 76.14% at 6 months, indicating successful treatment.
  • In a prospective descriptive study involving 88 patients aged over 18, treatment was based on Neer's criteria for fractures demonstrating displacement.
  • PHILOS plate treatment for proximal humerus fractures may enhance recovery, but awareness of potential complications remains crucial.
