Abstract

Although various implants exist for the fixation of isolated greater tuberosity fractures, few implants are specifically designed for such fractures. The purpose of this study was to investigate clinical and radiological outcomes of open reduction and internal fixation with a new< low-profile anatomical locking plate for comminuted greater tuberosity fractures of the proximal humerus.
