TY - GEN AB - Olecranon osteotomy is commonly performed for open reduction and internal fixation of intraarticular distal humerus fractures, as it affords direct visualization of the articular surface to achieve anatomic reduction. Historically, a chevron osteotomy with an oscillating saw has been utilized. Recently, however, using a Gigli saw to complete the olecranon osteotomy has been suggested as a more efficient technique. The purpose of this study was to compare complication rates of the chevron and Gigli saw osteotomy techniques.
