 Abstract
 PDF
- Comminuted fractures of the distal end of the humerus in adult are notoriously difficult to treat, and had reported many problems. Because anatomical structure around the olecranon fossa was composed by weak trabecular bone, accurate anatomical reduction and rigid fixation of the fracture fragment was not easily achieved by ordinary concept and implants. Recently, various anatomical plates for the fractures of the metaphyseal area of long bone were developed and relatively good results were reported. The authors developed new anatomical plate for distal humerus which had an well adaptable and more malleable characteristics for the fracture of the distal humerus. We report our short experience, of 3 cases treated with this plate.
