Abstract
Fourteen patients with fracture of the capitulum of the humerus were treated, ten by excision of a large fragment or multiple small fragments. Their results were superior to those in patients treated either by closed reduction or by open reduction and fixation. Nine had good to excellent retention of elbow motion, six had no pain, and three had minimum pain. None of the ten had valgus deformity or instability.Keywords
