[Osteosynthesis of subcapital humerus fracture with unconventionally applied implants]

The osteosynthesis of proximal humerus fractures with the commonly used plates is often critical because of the small space subacromial, the irritation of the blood supply by the broad plates and the poor proximal anchorage without angle stability. The osteosynthesis with a children hip plate or a angle plate like modified DC-plate is thought to be a reliable alternative.
