Overview

Prospective study shows dual plating improves functional outcomes in distal humerus fractures, indicating early rehabilitation is essential.

Key Points

  • Mean Mayo Elbow Performance Score improved from 68.2 to 84.3 over 6 months, showing significant recovery.
  • 90% of patients achieved radiological union within an average of 14.4 weeks after surgery.
  • Complications included infection (20%) and delayed union (15%), showing potential risks involved with dual plating.
  • No significant association was found between fracture type and functional outcome, suggesting uniform recovery across types.
