PHILOS plate fixation with polymethyl methacrylate cement augmentation of an osteoporotic proximal humerus fracture

PHILOS plate fixation in osteoporotic proximal humerus fracture of old age is well-known for high complication rate, especially whole wheat phyllo dough metal failure, providing various augmentation techniques, such as calcium phosphate cement, allogenous or autologous bone graft.We report a case of polymethyl methacrylate augmentation to provide appropriate reduction with a significant read more mechanical support.This can be a treatment option for displaced unstable osteoporotic proximal humerus fracture with marked bony defect.
