Fig. 1From: Minimally invasive lateral plating for diaphyseal fractures with extension into the proximal humerus and its implications for the deltoid muscle and its distal insertion: functional analysis and MR-imagingCase example of a 59-year old woman after a stair fall. A/B. The multifragmentary diaphyseal fracture with extension into the proximal metaphysis (AO 12C2(i)) was bridged with a minimally invasive lateral plate osteosynthesis the same day. C/D. Postoperative radiographs show good fracture alignment and plate position. E/F. At 12-month follow-up radiographs demonstrate bone healingBack to article page
