Open Reduction, Internal Fixation Distal Intraarticular Distal Humerus Fracture
1Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Cooper Medical School of Rowan University, Camden, NJ.
Purpose:
The purpose of this video is to demonstrate the surgical repair of an intraarticular distal humerus fracture.
Methods:
A polytrauma patient with an intraarticular distal humerus fracture is shown. The patient is positioned laterally, with a posterior skin incision and olecranon osteotomy for exposure. An anatomic reduction is achieved, and internal fixation with perpendicular plating of the distal humerus is performed.
Results:
The video is 18 minutes, 34 seconds duration in time and 2,048,752,000 bytes in size.
Conclusions:
Open reduction with internal fixation of a distal humerus fracture is demonstrated in this video.

01:27Fractures: Bone Repair
Minor fractures with no bone displacement are treated by immobilizing the fractured bone using a cast or splint. However, in the case of fractures with displaced bones, the broken bones are repositioned before immobilization to ensure successful healing without deformation and loss of function. The realignment of fractured bone ends is performed through a process called reduction. If the...
