Background: Surgical outcomes of the paratricipital approach (PT) and olecranon osteotomy
(OO) for the treatment of distal humerus intra-articular fracture have been reported. However …

Objective: To compare the clinical outcomes of perpendicular and parallel plating for the
treatment of distal humerus fractures. Methods: Two investigators independently searched …

Background There are various approaches to the distal humerus when managing a distal
humeral fracture, and controversy exists regarding which approach is optimal. The purpose …

Objective Olecranon osteotomy and paratricipital approaches were widely used in the
treatment of type C distal humerus fracture but some disadvantages exist, so a combined …

The flap is then elevated off the underlying muscle (leaving some muscle on the tendon to
avoid buttonholing) with an elevator or scalpel but remains attached to the olecranon distally …

Background To evaluate the difference of functional outcomes between OTA/AO type C,
Gustilo type I/II open fractures and closed fractures of the distal humerus after open …

Background Distal humerus fractures are common and can be difficult to treat. No one
approach to the distal humerus has been shown to be superior to another; however, the …

Background Digastric olecranon osteotomy approach allows an excellent articular exposure
and preserves principal vascular supply and the continuity of the extensor apparatus. The …

Introduction: Surgical treatment of distal humerus fractures can lead to numerous
complications. Data suggest that the number of screws in the distal (articular) segment may …
