A method of promoting healing of a fracture of a human humerus using a proximal humeral fracture plate.

Fracture plate

Proximal humeral fracture plate

A proximal humerus fracture plate for promoting healing of a fracture of a human humerus, comprising: an upper section having at least one screw hole for receiving an upper screw, the trajectory of the screw hole is a lateral to medial orientation; a transitional section having at least one screw hole for receiving a middle screw, the transitional section integral with the upper section and curved sufficiently to avoid a deltoid tuberosity, the middle screw fixing the transitional section along a lateral cortex of the humerus; and, a lower section having at least one screw hole for receiving a lower screw, the trajectory of the screw hole is an anterior to posterior orientation, the lower section integral with the transitional section.
