Displaced and unstable proximal humerus fractures are difficult to treat
and they have high morbidity. The main goal is to achieve painless shoulder with full
recovery of the shoulder joint motion. Impingement syndrome is one of the commonest
postoperative complication. This study aim is to appreciate the functional outcomes of
Philos-plate fixation for proximal humerus fractures and to establish association with
high plate positioning with impingement syndrome of the shoulder after Philos-plate
fixation. (Copied from article).
