Predicting secondary surgery after operative fixation of olecranon fractures: a model using data from 800 patients

JSES International, 2021
Background: High rates of secondary surgery after fixation of olecranon fractures have been reported. Identification of risk factors can aid surgeons to reduce complications leading to additional surgical procedures.

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

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 ...

Fractures in Brief: Olecranon Fractures [PDF]

Clinical Orthopaedics & Related Research, 2012
Olecranon fractures are relatively common injuries, accounting for approximately 10% of upper extremity fractures in adults [26]. These fractures may result from a direct blow to the proximal ulna, or indirectly, via the forceful contraction of the triceps against resistance (typically, during a fall onto an outstretched hand).

Olecranon Fracture Fixation: Surgical Technique

SurgiColl, 2023
Fractures of the olecranon occur from fall on the elbow or the outstretched hand resulting in eccentric contracture of the triceps musculature and subsequent avulsion of the proximal aspect of the ulna. These fractures are both inherently intra-articular
