A system for fixing fractured bone portions of a distal humerus in position with respect to one another. In one embodiment, the system includes a plate portion, a projection portion, and a fixation post. The plate portion includes a surface for contacting a posterior portion of the distal humerus adjacent one of a lateral side and a medial side thereof. The projection portion extends outwardly from the plate portion and includes an aperture for receiving the fixation post. The fixation post includes at least one fenestration, and extends from adjacent the one of the lateral and medial sides of the distal humerus to adjacent the other of the lateral and medial sides of the distal humerus.

1. A system for fixing fractured bone portions of a distal humerus in position with respect to one another, the system comprising: a plate portion including a first surface, an opposite second surface, a first end, a second end, and a length between the first and second ends, the second surface being configured to contact a posterior portion of the distal humerus adjacent one of a lateral side and a medial side thereof;a projection portion extending outwardly from the second surface, the projection portion including a third surface, an opposite fourth surface, and an aperture therethrough between the third and fourth surfaces, the fourth surface being configured to contact the one of the lateral and medial sides, and the aperture being configured to receive a fixation post;the fixation post including a head portion, a shaft portion, a first end, an opposite second end, and plurality of fenestrations provided in the shaft portion, the shaft portion extending from the head portion to the second end, the head portion being configured to engage the aperture formed in the projection portion, the shaft portion being configured to engage the fractured bone portions and to extend from the one of lateral and medial sides to adjacent the other of the lateral and medial sides, each of the fenestrations having a longitudinal axis, wherein the longitudinal axes are not parallel to each other, and each of the fenestrations being configured to receive a cross member; andeach of the cross members having a shaft portion, at least a portion of the shaft portion of each of the cross members being received in one of the fenestrations to attach the fixation post to each of the cross members, each of the cross members being configured to engage the fractured bone portions adjacent the fixation post, wherein, when the fixation post is positioned with respect to the fractured bone portions, and each of the cross members is attached to the fixation post, the fixation post and the cross members serve in stabilizing the position of the fractured bone portions. 2. The system of claim 1, wherein the fixation post is one of threaded and ratcheted to facilitate engagement with the fractured bone portions. 3. The system of claim 1, wherein each of the cross members is threaded to facilitate complementary engagement with threads provided in the corresponding fenestration. 4. The system of claim 1, wherein the plate portion includes an aperture configured to receive a fastener therethrough for attaching the plate portion to the distal humerus. 5. The system of claim 1, wherein the plate portion includes a first edge and a second edge formed on opposites sides of the plate portion between the first and second ends, the projection portion extending outwardly from the second surface between the first and second edges. 6. The system of claim 1, wherein the fixation post is at least partially hollow. 7. A system for fixing fractured bone portions of a distal humerus in position with respect to one another, the system comprising: a plate portion including a first surface, an opposite second surface, an aperture therethrough between the first and second surfaces, a first end, a second end, and a length between the first and second ends, the second surface being configured to contact a posterior portion of the distal humerus adjacent one of a lateral side and a medial side thereof;a first post configured to be received in the aperture of the plate portion, the first post including a first end, an opposite second end, a shaft portion, and an aperture provided adjacent the second end of the first post, the first post engaging the aperture of the plate portion adjacent the first end thereof, the shaft portion configured to extend outwardly from the second surface to engage the fractured bone portions adjacent the one of the lateral and medial sides, and the aperture of the first post being configured to receive a second post;the second post including a head portion, a shaft portion, a first end, an opposite second end, and a fenestration provided in the shaft portion of the second post, and the shaft portion of the second post extending from the head portion to the second end of the second post, the head portion being configured to engage the aperture provided in the first post, the shaft portion of the second post being configured to engage the fractured bone portions and to extend from the one of the lateral and medial sides to adjacent the other of the lateral and medial sides, and the fenestration being configured to receive a cross member; andthe cross member having a shaft portion, at least a portion of the shaft portion of the cross member being received in the fenestration to attach the second post and the cross member to one another, the cross member being configured to engage the fractured bone portions adjacent the second post, wherein, when the first and second posts are positioned with respect to the fractured bone portions, and the cross member is attached to the second post, the first and second posts and the cross member serve in stabilizing the position of the fractured bone portions. 8. The system of claim 7, wherein the first and second posts are one of threaded and ratcheted to facilitate engagement with the fractured bone portions. 9. The system of claim 7, wherein the plate portion includes an aperture configured to receive a fastener therethrough for attaching the plate portion to the distal humerus.
