Abstract:Intra articular fractures of the distal humerus cause considerable morbidity to the patients. There are several controversies regarding the approach and fixation of the fracture. AO advocated 90-90 plating of both columns while recent biomechanical studies demonstrated superior mechanical strength with parallel plating. But parallel plating is associated with many complications. We performed bicolumnar perpendicular plating in 15 intraarticular AO type C fractures through transolecranon approach. Ulnar nerve w… Show more
