Conventional open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) remains the gold standard, but complications such as nonunion and iatrogenic radial nerve injury still occur. We fixed the fractures with a lateral locking compression plate (LCP) subcutaneously after small incision reduction to protect the radial nerve. This study reports the clinical and radiographic outcomes of our modified method.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Thirty\u2010eight patients with distal\u2010third diaphyseal humerus fractures were treated with lateral subcutaneous LCP and small incision reduction at our department between September 2013 and August 2016. There were 33 males and 5 females, with an average age of 30.3\u2009years (range, 17 to 49\u2009years). All the cases were types A or B (AO\/OTA classification, type A, 24 cases; type B, 14 cases). Among them, 6 cases were combined with preoperative radial nerve palsy. All patients were diagnosed with closed humeral fractures after X\u2010ray examination, and had typical upper limb pain, swelling, and movement disorders. The operations were performed by a single surgeons\u2019 team. Union time, range of motion (ROM), University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) shoulder rating scale, and Mayo Elbow Performance Index (MEPI) scores were assessed to evaluate the postoperative results.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>All patients were followed up for an average of 11.4\u2009months (range, 3 to 36\u2009months). The average operation time was 75.5\u2009min (range, 60 to 150\u2009min) and average intraoperative radiation exposure was 10.5\u2009s (range, 8 to 18\u2009s). Bony union was achieved in all cases after an average of 16.2\u2009weeks (range, 12 to 25\u2009weeks). No complications such as infection or screw and plate fracture occurred, and no iatrogenic radial nerve injury was observed. According to the UCLA shoulder rating scale, the average score was 33.7 (range, 31 to 35), with 33 excellent (86.8%) and 5 good cases (13.2%). They were all excellent according to their MEPI scores (ranging, 94 to 100, with an average of 97.4). The average operation time for secondary removal of the plate was 15.2\u2009min (range, 10 to 20\u2009min), and no complications such as infection or secondary radial nerve injury occurred.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Lateral subcutaneous LCP and small incision reduction may reduce the risk of iatrogenic radial nerve injury significantly in the treatment of distal\u2010third diaphyseal humerus fractures. It also leads to solid fixation, good postoperative function, and convenient removal of the plate without injuring the radial nerve.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/os.12398","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,8,29]],"date-time":"2018-08-29T22:08:42Z","timestamp":1535580522000},"page":"218-226","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Lateral Subcutaneous Locking Compression Plate and Small Incision Reduction for Distal\u2010third Diaphyseal Humerus Fractures"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"10","author":[{"given":"Hong","family":"Chang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedics and Traumatology Nanfang Hospital, Southern Medical University  Guangzhou China"},{"name":"Department of Orthopaedics 421 Hospital of PLA  Guangzhou China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Zi\u2010Long","family":"Yao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedics and Traumatology Nanfang Hospital, Southern Medical University  Guangzhou China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yi\u2010Long","family":"Hou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedics and Traumatology Nanfang Hospital, Southern Medical University  Guangzhou China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yang","family":"Cao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedics 421 Hospital of PLA  Guangzhou China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Xin\u2010Hui","family":"Guo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedics 421 Hospital of PLA  Guangzhou China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Guan\u2010Jun","family":"Li","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedics 421 Hospital of PLA  Guangzhou China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Bin","family":"Yu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedics and Traumatology Nanfang Hospital, Southern Medical University  Guangzhou China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2018,8,28]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_6_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2106\/JBJS.F.00334"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/BOT.0000000000000643"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jse.2016.05.014"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.injury.2014.08.045"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00264-009-0753-x"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/s13018-016-0366-1"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/BOT.0b013e318214ebd5"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5435\/00124635-200301000-00007"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1302\/0301-620X.82B3.9675"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/BOT.0b013e318254895f"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_12_1","first-page":"346","article-title":"Fractures of the shaft of the humerus: systematic plate fixation.
