Meanwhile, A few people experience the axillary nerve damage such as reduced sensation around the middle deltoid and/or axillary artery involvement.
Riseborough and Radin classification of Distal Humeral Fractures
| Riseborough and Radin classification of intercondylar fractures in cases with the Distal humerus fracture | ||
|---|---|---|
| Type I | no displacement of the fragments |  |
| Type II | T-shaped intercondylar fractures + the trochlea and capitellum fragments separated but not appreciably rotated in the frontal plane | |
| Type III | T-shaped intercondylar fractures + separation of the fragments and significant rotatory deformity | |
| Type IV | T-shaped intercondylar fractures + severe comminution of the articular surface arid wide separation of the humeral condyles | |
