BACKGROUND The goal of the current study is to examine the clinical, functional, and radiological results of patients treated with minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis (MIPPO) and indirect reduction. METHODS It is a prospective study which was carried out from July 2022 to July 2023 in C.R.Gardi Hospital, Ujjain, Madhya Pradesh. In this study 15 cases of shaft of humerus fractures were managed by minimally invasive plate percutaneousosteosynthesis (MIPPO).The Mayo elbow performance scores and UCLA shoulder performance scores were used. RESULTS The patientswith an average age of 35.31 years(18-50 years) were selected. The most frequent category of injuries in our study was road traffic accidents (RTAs; 80%).According to the UCLA score, shoulder function was fair in 2 cases (13.4%) and exceptional to good in 13 cases (86.6%). CONCLUSION For the treatment of humeral shaft fractures, the anterior bridge technique with a small incision produces good functional outcomes and need to be taken into consideration as a successful, cosmetically improved surgical alternative.
