Abstract
|
|
|
|
The locking plate is used for osteoporotic long bone fracture because of the ability to affect a lock between the plate and locking screws that prevents reduction loss, angular deformity and axial deformity. However, it has been reported that locked plating can increase the periprosthetic fracture risk in osteoporotic bone compared with conventional plating. We report 3 cases of periprosthetic fracture after the use of locked plating in osteoporotic long bone fracture and a review of the relevant literatures.
