Triplane fracture of the distal humeral epiphysis.
An 11-year-2-month-old girl sustained a triplane fracture in the distal humeral epiphysis. Open reduction and internal fixation were performed, producing an excellent result, after closed manipulation failed to achieve complete reduction. The triplane fracture can occur in areas other than the distal tibia.
