Abstract
The convenience of this new IM-nail and locking plate assembly must be confirmed in vivo but the current study provides a biomechanical rationale for its use in the treatment of three-part proximal humeral fractures. The improved stability could be advantageous in particular when medial buttress is missing, even in osteoporotic bone.
