Fracture of the medial condyle of the humerus
MH Ghawabi
Nine patients with ten fractures of the medial condyle of the humerus were
reviewed after an average follow-up of 5.2 years. These avulsion fractures
are unstable and there is a definite risk of nonunion. When the condylar
fragment was rotated, open reduction and suture with catgut gave bad
results. Rigid internal fixation is recommended.
