Fig. 1

In MIPO technique using the narrow locking compression plate, intraoperative bending of this locking plate could adequately fitted to long spiral (Complex spiral type, AO classification: C1) humerus shaft fracture with proximal fracture extension to the greater tuberosity (a). However, at the postoperative lateral x-ray, the fracture angulation could be found after non-anatomical narrow locking compression plate fixation (b, c)
