Abstract

Pediatric distal humerus metaphyseal-diaphyseal junction fractures should be distinguished from the more prevalent supracondylar humerus fractures, as conventional pinning techniques are associated with a higher incidence of complications and increased both operative and healing times.<b>Level of evidence:</b> III.
