Implant displacement in coronal shear fracture of the distal humerus models under different test conditions. A Displacement of novel plating configuration under axial straightening. B Displacement of novel plating configuration under bending compression. C Displacement of novel plating configuration under varus torsion. D Displacement of orthogonal plating configuration under axial straightening. E Displacement of orthogonal plating configuration under bending compression. F Displacement of orthogonal plating configuration under varus torsion. G Displacement of three-screw configuration under axial straightening. H Displacement of three-screw configuration under bending compression. I Displacement of three-screw configuration under varus torsion. Under all the test conditions, the displacement and rotational angle of the novel plating model were smallest, followed by those of the traditional orthogonal plate model, while the displacement and rotational angle of the three-screw fixation model were the largest
