Treatment of distal humeral fractures using conventional implants. Biomechanical evaluation of a new implant configuration

BACKGROUND: In the face of costly fixation hardware with varying performance for treatment of distal humeral fractures, a novel technique (U-Frame) is proposed using conventional implants in a 180° plate arrangement. In this in-vitro study the biomechanical stability of this method was compared with...
