The Novel Ulnar Nerve Coverage Method Which Has the Potential to Prevent the Postoperative Ulnar Neuropathy after Plate Fixation of Distal Humerus Fractures: Three Case Reports

<div>Schema of the left distal humerus. (a) When the ulnar nerve is transferred anteriorly, the ulnar nerve interferes with the plate. (b) In the UNC method, when the triceps muscles are finally sutured together (red circle), the ulnar nerve returns to its anatomical position and does not interfere with the plate.</div>
