Overview

Retrospective clinical study reports functional recovery in patients with proximal humerus fractures, suggesting effective surgical intervention using PHILOS plate.

Key Points

  • Proximal humerus internal locking system plate fixation leads to good-to-excellent functional outcomes in fractures.
  • At follow-up, 46.7% had excellent outcomes, with the mean Constant-Murley score reaching 78.
  • Retrospective clinical study included 30 patients aged 18-65 treated with PHILOS plating over a 2-year period.
  • Results highlight stable fixation and the impact of early rehabilitation on recovery in shoulder function.
