Abstract:Introduction: Generally Anterolateral and posterior surgical approaches are most commonly used approaches for fractures of middle thirds and distal third of the humerus. In posterior approach, usually splitting of triceps is done for exploring humerus. We studied an alternative, triceps reflecting para tricipital approach which spares the extensor mechanism. We are using it for the lower third extra articular humerus fracture to achieve good exposure of humerus so as to avoid muscle splitting and gaining the e… Show more
