Timing of Olecranon Fracture Fixation Does Not Affect Early Complication or Reoperation Rates [PDF]

Journal of Hand Surgery Global Online
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 ...

A randomized controlled trial to compare clinical and cost-effectiveness of suture fixation versus tension band wiring for simple olecranon fracture fixation in adults: The Simple Olecranon Fracture Fixation Trial (SOFFT) protocol [PDF]

Bone & Joint Open, 2023
Aims: Olecranon fractures are usually caused by falling directly on to the olecranon or following a fall on to an outstretched arm. Displaced fractures of the olecranon with a stable ulnohumeral joint are commonly managed by open reduction and internal ...

Pediatric trans-olecranon fracture dislocation of the elbow associated with fracture of the radial head and with medial collateral ligament lesion: A case report and review of the literature [PDF]

Trauma Case Reports, 2021
Introduction: We report what is, to the best of our knowledge, the first case of pediatric trans-olecranon fracture dislocation of the elbow associated with a radial head fracture and with a medial collateral ligament disruption.

Treatment of Capitellum and Trochlear Fracture using Headless Screw with Concomitant Olecranon Fracture Through Posterior Approach: A Case Report [PDF]

Malaysian Orthopaedic Journal
Articular fracture of distal humerus account for 2% of all adult elbow fracture. The coronal shear fracture combined with olecranon fracture require stable anatomical reduction and stabilisation for early rehabilitation and mobility.

More metalwork removals in patients with olecranon fracture treated by tension band wiring than plate fixation-a propensity score matching analysis [PDF]

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2021
Background Traditional tension band wiring and plate fixation represent the commonest methods for treating olecranon fractures. However, there is no agreement on which method provides the best outcome.

Pediatric posterior trans-olecranon fracture-dislocation of the elbow: a case report and review of literature [PDF]

Frontiers in Surgery
ObjectiveDislocations of the elbow are not common in skeletally immature patients. Herein, we present a case report on a rare pediatric posterior trans-olecranon fracture dislocation of the elbow, a type of dislocation that has never been reported in ...

Augmented intramedullary screw tension band construct for olecranon fracture reduction and fixation: a review of literature and surgical technique [PDF]

JSES International, 2020
Olecranon fractures, which make up 10% of upper extremity fractures in adults, often require anatomic reduction and stable internal fixation. Successful olecranon fracture osteosynthesis has classically been achieved via tension band wiring or plate ...

Comparison of the Visible Articular Surface between the Lateral Para-Olecranon Approach and Two Other Common Posterior Approaches for Distal Humeral Fracture: an Anatomical Study

Journal of Hand Surgery Global Online, 2019
Purpose: To quantify the visible area of the articular surface of the distal humerus exposed by the lateral para-olecranon (LPO) approach and to compare this with the bilaterotricipital (BT) and olecranon osteotomy (OO) approaches.
