This paper details the results of patients for whom this approach was utilised for open reduction and internal fixation of complex AO type C distal humerus fractures.<\/jats:p><jats:p>Methods: A retrospective analysis of a single surgeon\u2019s cases was conducted. Range of movement, as well as Mayo Elbow Performance Score (MEPS), and QuickDASH scores were evaluated. Two independent consultants with upper extremity practises evaluated pre- and post-operative radiographs.<\/jats:p><jats:p>Results: Seven patients were available for clinical review. The mean age at the time of surgery was 47.7 years (range, 20.3\u201383.2) and the mean follow-up time was 3.6 years (range, 0.58\u20138). The average QuickDASH score was 15.85 (range, 0\u201352.3), average MEPS was 86.88 (range, 60\u2013100) and average total arc of movement (TAM) was 103\u00b0 (range, 70\u00b0\u2013145\u00b0). All patients demonstrated 5\/5 MRC triceps strength compared to the contralateral side.<\/jats:p><jats:p>Conclusions: The Triceps Split and Snip approach for complex distal humerus fractures provided comparable mid-term clinical outcomes when compared to other published data regarding distal humerus fractures. It is versatile and does not compromise the intra-operative option of conversion to a total elbow arthroplasty.<\/jats:p><jats:p>Level of Evidence: Level IV
