RÉSUMÉ
OBJECTIVE@#To explore the efficacy of Y-type anatomical plate in patients with distal humeral fracture.@*METHODS@#Thirty three patients suffered from comminuted distal humeral fracture undertook the operation. Among them, 15 were supracondyle fracture, and the other 18 were intercondyle fracture. All patients were treated with middle post elbow incision, reposition, and fixed with Y-type anatomical steel plate.@*RESULTS@#All patients were followed up for 16 months after the operation, and all fractures healed. The average healing time was 3. 5 months. The elbow joint function according to Aitken and Rombeck's elbow function rating system was evaluated, and the results were as follows: the function recovery was excellent in 29 patients, good in 2 and fair in the other 2 patients. The excellence rate was 93. 9%.@*CONCLUSION@#Y-type anatomical steel plate is excellent in the treatment of distal humeral fracture.
