Brachial plexus palsy following proximal humerus fracture in patients who are skeletally immature.

abstract：:Transverse fractures at the distal tip of a well-fixed femoral prosthesis are difficult to stabilize using plates and screws due to the presence of the underlying intramedullary stem. The attachment of plates using cerclage wires obviates the need for screws, but the stability provided by cerclage plating is a clinica...
