  A Comparative Study of Perpendicular Versus Parallel Plate Fixation in Distal Humerus Fractures
  Author(s): Dr. Pranavkumar Jagdishbhai Pandya* and Dr. Sudhirkumar Rawat
  
  Background: Intra-articular distal humerus fractures are complex injuries requiring stable fixation to permit early mobilization and prevent elbow stiffness. Dual-plate fixation using either perpendicular (orthogonal) or parallel configuration is commonly employed, but the optimal plate orientation remains debated. Objectives: To compare functional and radiological outcomes of perpendicular versus parallel plate fixation in adult intra- articular distal humerus fractures. Methods: This prospective comparative observational study was conducted at a tertiary care teaching hospital in India. Forty adult patients with AO/OTA type 13-C distal humerus fractures were included and divided into two groups: perpendicular plating (n=20) and parallel plating (n=20). Patients underwent standardized surgical fixation followed by.. Read More»
