Percutaneous screw fixation of intercondylar fracture of the distal humerus.
A greenstick intercondylar fracture of the distal humerus occurred in a 13-year-old boy. The articular surface of the trochlea was diastased nearly 5 mm. The fracture was reduced and fixed percutaneously using a 4.5-mm cannulated screw from a lateral approach.
