Abstract

Background: Shaft fractures account for 20% and 1-3% of all humerus fractures, respectively. Open dynamic compression plate fixation (Open fixation with DCP) with absolute stability is the current gold standard for treating shaft humerus fractures. The goal of MIPO was to provide a more stable fixation, which would increase the union rate and decrease open plating side effects including infection and radial nerve palsy. Aim: The purpose of this study was to assess the clinical and radiological outcomes of the MIPPO technique in the treatment of humeral shaft fractures
