Ulnar Shaft Fracture, Case 2: Plate Fixation

Study Ulnar Shaft Fracture, Case 2: Plate Fixation through an immersive first-person surgical case from the Bone Reconstruction channel on Surgie. The module focuses on fixation of ulnar shaft fracture with plate, approach between the extensor carpi ulnaris and flexor carpi ulnaris, and periosteal preservation and muscle-sparing approach.

Procedure Overview

The case is organized for structured review of surgical anatomy, procedural sequencing, instrument handling, reduction or reconstruction strategy, implant positioning, and intraoperative verification. Expert narration connects the visual field with the decisions documented during the procedure.

What You Will Observe

• Fixation of ulnar shaft fracture with plate
• Approach between the extensor carpi ulnaris and flexor carpi ulnaris
• Periosteal preservation and muscle-sparing approach
• Compression technique with pre-tensioned plate
• Anatomical reduction using different instrumental strategies

Key Technical Decisions

• Intermuscular Approach
• Biological Preservation of the Fracture Site
• Anatomical Reduction
• Implantation on the Tension Cortex
• Plate Pre-tensioning

Included With This Training

• Technical PDF summarizing the procedure, operative sequence, and key review points.
