Biomechanical Assessment of Locking Plate Fixation of Comminuted Proximal Olecranon Fractures.

abstract：:The standard AO-plate was used as an external fixator in 31 patients with an infected nonunion or open fracture mainly of the upper extremity. With the use of this technique, good stability can be achieved with an inexpensive and relatively simple construction. The low profile of the frame is an advantage for the pati...
