A New Technique of Fixing Intra-articular Fractures of the Distal Humerus without Exposing the Ulnar Nerve by Posterior Approach.

Introduction: Distal humerus fractures constitute around 0.2 to 7% of all fractures, 30% of all humerus fractures, most common in young adults, are due to high energy trauma and in old age due to osteoporosis. A common step in all currently available approaches is to identify the ulnar nerve, expose, mobilise, and retract this from its surrounding bed or in situ release.
