  Distal humerus fractures are complex injuries involving the lower end of the upper arm bone near the elbow joint. Their intricate anatomy, limited bone space, and frequent fragmentation make treatment challenging, especially in osteoporotic patients. Locking plate systems have become a preferred solution due to their ability to provide stable, fixed-angle support independent of bone quality. These plates allow secure fixation even in weak or comminuted bone, reducing the risk of implant failure and improving fracture alignment. Surgical management requires precise planning, proper exposure, and accurate reduction of the joint surface, often supported by temporary fixation techniques. Dual plating methods further enhance stability and enable early mobilization, which is crucial to prevent elbow stiffness. While effective, careful soft tissue handling and accurate screw placement remain essential for optimal outcomes. Overall, successful treatment depends on combining the right im...
