Titanium mini locking plate with trans-osseous sutures for the treatment of humeral greater tuberosity fracture osteosynthesis versus PHILOS: a retrospective view

ConclusionsMini locking plate with trans-osseous sutures shows better efficacy in reducing the incision size, operative duration, intraoperative blood loss, and implant cost and in improving CMS. No complication was found with its use. Our data can provide rationale and inform sample- size calculations for such studies. Larger, control studies are needed for better understanding.
