Enhancing fixation stability in proximal humerus fractures: screw orientation optimization in PHILOS plates through finite element analysis and biomechanical testing
Abstract The optimal treatment strategy for proximal humerus fractures (PHFs) is debatable owing to the relatively high failure rate of locking plates. Optimizing implants may enhance the fixation stability of PHFs and reduce the rate of mechanical failures. We developed a finite element (FE) model...
