Intramedullary screw fixation for simple displaced olecranon fractures
Purpose Olecranon fractures are common and typically require surgical fixation due to displacement generated by the pull of the triceps muscle. The most common techniques for repairing olecranon fractures are tension-band wiring or plate fixation, but ...
