    Author(s): Muhammad Ishfaq Mazari, Muhammad Mannan*, Shazeen Eisha and Khandaker T Ahmed

    Background: Humeral shaft fractures constitute approximately 5% of all fractures. Surgical fixation is commonly achieved using either intramedullary nails (IMNs) or locking compression plates (LCPs), each with distinct advantages. IMNs are valued for their minimally invasive approach, while LCPs offer superior stability and control over fracture reduction. Objective: This study aimed to compare the efficacy of IMNs and LCPs in managing humeral shaft fractures, focusing on operative parameters, postoperative recovery, and functional outcomes. Methodology: This retrospective case study was conducted at Sheikh Zayed Medical College/Hospital Rahim Yar Khan, including patients treated between March 1, 2018, and February 28, 2019. A total of 68 patients with humeral shaft fractures were reviewed. The patients were divide.. Read More»
