Intra-articular fractures of the distal humerus are complex injuries that can considerably limit
elbow function if not treated appropriately. Surgical management is indicated for most intra …

With the continuing improvements in implants for distal humerus fractures, it is expected that
newer types of plates, which are anatomically precontoured, thinner and less irritating to soft …

The goal of this article was to review studies on distal humerus fracture plates (DHFPs) to
understand the biomechanical influence of systematically changing the plate or screw …

Distal humerus fractures commonly occur in adults with low bone mineral density causing
major technical challenges for orthopedic surgeons. Persian fixation method was introduced …

Purpose There are two widely used distal humerus fracture (DHF) fixation methods with
either orthogonal or parallel double-plate osteosynthesis. However, biomechanical studies …

Background Distal humerus fractures are a challenge to treat, and the current standard of
care, open reduction internal fixation with a double-plate, has a high rate of complications …

Aim. This study aimed at comparing the mechanical properties of conventional and locking
dual plates in adjacent and orthogonal orientations for the surgical fixation of transverse …

Fragility fractures of the distal humerus in elderly patients, especially the low transcondylar
fracture pattern, can be difficult to optimally manage. Although the fractures are typically low …

Introduction Previous reports have questioned whether an orthogonal or parallel
configuration is superior for distal humeral articular fractures. In previous clinical and …

Objective: The investigation hypothesized that in current anatomical precontoured plates,
angular stability plays only a minor role for the efficacy of the osteosynthesis at the distal …
