Comparison of three different fixation constructs for radial neck fractures: a biomechanical study

Abstract Background Fixation of radial neck fractures can be achieved with a plate and screw construct or with two screws. This study evaluated the biomechanical properties of three different fixation methods following radial neck fractures. Methods Twenty-four fourth-generation composite radii were...
