Intramedullary screw fixation for simple displaced olecranon fractures [PDF]
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 ...

Timing of Olecranon Fracture Fixation Does Not Affect Early Complication or Reoperation Rates
Purpose: Surgical fixation of olecranon fractures can lead to soft-tissue complications and return to the operating room for hardware removal. While some risk factors of complications after olecranon fracture fixation have been described, the effects of ...
