Background Distal humeral fractures are relatively rare injuries in adults. Fractures that
involve the articular surface can be particularly challenging to treat. Open reduction–internal …

Background: Severe comminution, bone loss, and osteopenia at the site of a distal humeral
fracture increase the risk of an unsatisfactory result, often secondary to inadequate fixation …

BACKGROUND: This study compared clinical outcomes in patients with intraarticular distal
humerus fractures treated using 2 different double plating methods. METHOD: Seventeen …

Objectives The transolecranon exposure for distal humerus fractures is a suggested
technique for improving articular visualization, allowing accurate reduction. Significant …

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to compare the incidence of ulnar neuritis with and
without ulnar nerve transposition during open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) of distal …

Objectives: To determine the clinical effectiveness of precontoured parallel plating for the
management of Orthopaedic Trauma Association (OTA) type C distal humerus fractures …

Management of distal humerus fractures continues to challenge orthopaedic surgeons. The
unique and complex anatomy of the distal humerus, involving the ulnohumeral and …

BACKGROUND: Orthogonal and parallel plate constructs are used for fixation of intra-
articular distal humerus fractures but optimal plate configuration remains controversial. The …

Orthopaedic injuries are common among trauma patients and can result in long-term
problems. Considerable data are available regarding functional outcomes following lower …
