We present a novel use for an adult proximal humeral locking plate. In our case an 18-year-old female with cerebral palsy sustained a peri-prosthetic fracture of a blade plate previously inserted for a femoral osteotomy. Treatment was revision using a long proximal humeral locking plate. She had a successful outcome. We present the history and operative management. The female had a history of quadriplegic cerebral palsy, asthma, diabetes mellitus and congenital heart disease. She had a gastrostomy tube for enteral feeding. She was on nutritional supplements, baclofen, Omeprazole and movicol. She is looked after by her parents and requires a wheelchair for mobility. She is unable to communicate. Surgical History: Right adductor tenotomy, aged 11. Femoral Derotation
