Three-dimensional preoperative planning has been applied to the osteosynthesis of distal humerus fractures. The present study investigated the correlations between 3D preoperative planning and postope...
Twenty-three elbows of 23 distal humerus fracture patients who underwent osteosynthesis with three-dimensional preoperative planning were evaluated. 3D images of the distal humerus were created after ...
Preoperative planning and postoperative measurement values were CA: 85.6 ± 5.9°/85.8 ± 5.9°, SA: 140.9 ± 8.5°/139.4 ± 7.9°, and AA: 84.0 ± 3.1°/82.6 ± 4.9°, respectively. ICCs were CA: 0.75 (P < 0.01)...
The 3D preoperative planning of distal humeral fractures achieved the good correlations of coronal and sagittal angles, but the relatively poor correlation of the axial angle. This may be attributed t...

A 31-year-old right-hand-dominant man sustained an open left distal humerus fracture resulting in a complete loss of the lateral column involving 30% of the articular surface and the lateral collatera...
The technique described in this report can be a viable option for treating young patients with a severe distal humerus fracture complicated and can provide favorable clinical and radiological outcomes...
The indication for minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis (MIPO) may include articular fractures depending on the fracture pattern. The goal of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of the MIPO ...
The feasibility of the MIPO technique was assessed on 8 cadaveric elbows and 2 clinical cases. The four surgical approaches tested included a 20-mm ulnar incision, a 20-mm dorsoradial incision, and tw...
Reduction and plate fixation of all distal humeral fractures (8 cadaveric) with and without osteotomy was feasible. However, when using approach B, the soft tissue tension is reduced due to the wider ...
The MIPO technique for reduction and plate fixation in distal humeral fractures is feasible....
As a feasibility study, this study cannot be clearly classified into a level of evidence. It corresponds most closely to level IV....
The treatment of distal third humeral shaft fracture is difficult. Studies have shown that anterior minimally invasive plate has lower probability of complication and higher healing rate. However ther...
The data of 83 patients with lower humerus shaft fracture treated from September 2015 to January 2020 were analyzed. According to different treatment methods, they were divided into two groups: 40 pat...
There was no significant difference in preoperative general data between the two groups (p > 0.05), indicating comparability. There were no significant differences in operation time, total incision le...
A humeral intramedullary nail combined with an anterior minimally invasive plate in the treatment of distal humeral shaft fracture has the advantages of less soft tissue damage, less blood transfusion...
Iatrogenic injury to the radial nerve is a risk in surgical treatment for extraarticular fractures of the middle and distal third of the humerus. We aimed to investigate the safety, feasibility and ad...
In 2016, 13 adult cadaver arms were used to simulate a minimally invasive surgical approach to the anteromedial humerus followed by fixation with a locking compression plate (LCP), and several sets of...
The average humeral length was 29.22 ± 1.62 cm, the average width of the medial epicondyle of the humerus was 1.31 ± 0.17 cm, and the average distance from the vertex of the medial epicondyle to the m...
The new approach was performed as described, and no cases of iatrogenic nerve palsy occurred. This approach can be used as an alternative for the treatment of extraarticular fractures of the middle an...
Level IV, therapeutic study....
Distal fractures of the humerus and their complications have rarely been described or analysed in the palaeopathological literature. The objective of this study was to evaluate two cases of distal hum...
Skeletal remains of two individuals. A middle-aged female radiocarbon dated to c.160 BP and a middle-aged male radiocarbon dated to c.2 300 BP....
Remains were macroscopically and radiographically assessed for injury....
Both cases presented with healed antemortem injury to the right elbow attributed to possible falls. Distal humeral fracture resulted in non-union of the lateral epicondyle with extensive morphological...
Cubitus valgus following traumatic injury has rarely been reported amongst historic or prehistoric populations. The described injuries would have had physical and functional consequences, raising ques...
The contextual information for these individuals is limited and do not permit broader population level study....
Formal biomechanical analysis including cross-sectional geometry analysis will provide further information regarding complications and strengthen the diagnosis of ulnar neuropathy. Further research is...
Our experience with the surgical flip-dislocation of the bicolumnar (SFDB) approach for type AO 13C3 humeral fractures indicates that this surgical approach can be performed safely and effectively in ...
We retrospectively reviewed 65 cases of type AO 13C3 distal humeral fractures treated between April 2008 and July 2018; 33 patients were treated with the SFDB approach, and the remaining were treated ...
Operative time and blood loss were significantly lower in the SFDB group than in the OO group (P = 0.001, P = 0.002, respectively). At the final follow-up, the mean postoperative MEPI did not signific...
The SFDB approach achieves superior exposure of the articular surface without injury to the extensor mechanism in type 13C3 articular surface fracture treatment. This approach also results in good ear...
Double-plating methods are popular, with perpendicular and parallel plate methods being widely used surgical method for the rigid fixation of distal humeral fracture (DHF). However, which plate method...
We extracted 383 patients with DHF undergoing surgery between 2011 and 2020 from our multicenter database, which is named TRON. We divided the subjects into two groups: perpendicular plating group (Gr...
After matching, each group comprised 50 patients. There was no significant difference between Group A versus Group B in MEPS score at each time point. The incidence of implant removal in Group B was h...
Although there were no significant differences in clinical outcomes or complications between the two groups, the incidence of implant removal was higher in Group B than in Group A. In the parallel pla...
Lateral humeral condyle fractures (LHCF) are the second most frequent type of pediatric elbow fracture. The purpose of this study is to characterize infections and nonunions of LHCF treated at a singl...
Pediatric patients undergoing surgical treatment for a LHCF from 2012 to 2022 at a single children's hospital were identified for a retrospective review. Patients who were diagnosed with an active inf...
Out of 863 surgical patients, 12 (1.4%) patients developed 13 infections: 8 were diagnosed with superficial cellulitis, 3 with soft tissue infections, and 2 with osteomyelitis. Eleven fractures were s...
Infection and nonunion are rare complications of LHCF, but greatly change the timeline and number of healthcare interactions required for healing. Infectious complications typically require admission,...
Level IV - case series....
Although lateral humeral condyle fracture is common, the incidence of missed diagnosis is very high. Delayed and missed diagnosis led to significant morbidities and loss of functions. We designed a pe...
