Abstract
Objective: The aim of the study is to assess the functional and radiological outcomes in 2, 3, and 4-parts proximal humerus fractures treated using the proximal humerus locking plate. Methods: From January 2016 to December 2016, total 31 patients with displaced 2, 3 or 4-parts proximal humerus fractures included. The functional outcomes were assessed using Constant scores, and radiological assessments were also done over 6 weeks, 3months, and 6 months. The data was analysed for significance using ‘t’ test or ANOVA (analysis of variance) test (statistics calculators version 3.0 Beta). The significance was set at value P
