Intra-articular distal humerus fractures present various challenges with a wide array of treatment options. Open reduction internal fixation remains the treatment of choice. In older patient populations with poor bone quality and short-end segment fractures with articular comminution, open reduction internal fixation, however, may bring on unsurmountable technical challenges.

- A new classification system for proximal ulna fractures is introduced, based on biological and anatomical stress analysis, to enhance surgical planning.
- Researchers employed literature reviews and created 3D anatomical models to identify potential fracture fragments and assess past cases of olecranon fractures using advanced imaging.
- The study identified seven fracture fragments from a sample of 67 CT scans, and found that the proposed classification aligns better with anatomical factors than existing systems, thereby improving the understanding and treatment of complex fractures.
