Abstract:
Objective To compare the values of two photography positions for the evaluation after locking plate implantation of the proximal humeral fracture patient.Methods Totally 200 proximal humeral frature patients after locking plate implantation had the front and lateral shoulder joint X-ray films with the conventional and improved photography positions analyzed retrospectively.Post-operative evaluation was carried out with double-blind method from the aspects of morphology of humeral head,condition of locking plate and screw,humeral head angle and bone cortex around humerus.Results Improved photography position behaved better than the conventional position in displaying morphology of humeral head,condition of locking plate and screw,humeral head angle and bone cortex around humerus.Conclusion Improved photography position is recommended to photograph the lateral side of the locking plate for post-operative evaluation.
