Primary Reconstruction Using Fibular Strut Allograft for Distal Humerus Intra-articular Comminuted Open Fracture (AO/OTA13C2, G-A type IIIA): A Case Report.

Distal humerus intra-articular comminuted open fracture is a challenging injury, with nonunion, infection and stiffness considered as major concerns. We report a 58-year-old woman who was admitted to the emergency department from a car accident, sustaining an open wound with severe comminution of distal humerus and complete articular fracture, classified as AO/OTA 13C2 and Gustillo Anderson type IIIA. Debridement and external fixation was done first, followed by open reduction and internal fixation with fibular strut allograft. The patient showed excellent results in radiological and functional outcomes. Level of Evidence: Level V (Therapeutic).
