- •
Fractures of the radial neck can be treated with open reduction internal fixation
- •
Options for fixation include a plate/screw construct and obliquely-oriented screws.
- •
Our analysis revealed similar biomechanical characteristics of these two strategies though failure modes differed
- •
When loaded medially to laterally, the screw construct was 1.8 times stiffer.
- •
Obliquely-oriented screws may be preferred in transverse, noncomminuted fractures
