βCan every shoulder fracture be fixed with plates and screws?β π€
π¨ββοΈ Not always.
As life expectancy increases, we are seeing more shoulder fractures in elderly patients.
In many of these cases, the bone quality is poor, making it difficult for plates, screws, or rods to get a strong hold.
π©Ί When the fracture is complex and the bone is weak, shoulder replacement may provide a more reliable solution.
The good news?
Modern shoulder replacement techniques can offer excellent pain relief and help patients regain function and independence.
π Shoulder fracture or severe shoulder injury?
Get properly evaluated to understand the best treatment option.
