ANATOMICAL STUDY OF THE INSERTION OF THE TRICEPS BRACHII TENDON IN THE OLECRANON THROUGH MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING [PDF]
Acta Ortopédica BrasileiraIntroduction: The triceps brachii muscle (TBM) is the main muscle of the posterior aspect of the arm, occupying most of the extensor compartment. Proximally, it is composed of three heads: long, lateral, and medial, and presents a single tendon.

Comparing Morbidities of Bone Graft Harvesting from the Olecranon Process and the Distal Radius. [PDF]
Plast Reconstr Surg Glob Open, 2016 The aim of this study is to compare donor-site morbidities between patients who underwent bone graft harvesting from either the olecranon process (OP) or the distal radius (DR).We evaluated 44 patients who underwent bone graft harvesting from the OP (25 cases) or the DR (19 cases) for various procedures in the ipsilateral upper extremity.

Olecranon Tip Osteoarticular Autograft Transfer for Irreparable Coronoid Process Fracture: A Biomechanical Study [PDF]
Hand, 2015 Background We hypothesized that transfer of the olecranon tip for simulated type III coronoid fracture would restore posterior ulnohumeral translation to a level not different from that in the intact state. Methods The collateral ...

How to target the coronoid from the dorsal cortex [PDF]
JSES InternationalBackground: The coronoid process of the ulna is crucial for both anteroposterior and axial elbow stability. Currently, there is no safe and X-ray–free method for targeting the coronoid from the posterior cortex of the ulna, for temporary or permanent ...

Olecranon Process Fracture in a Radial Club Hand Treated with Tension Band Wiring: A Case Report. [PDF]
J Orthop Case Rep, 2016 Radial club hand is rare deformity, and many patients do not receive treatment due to lack of awareness. None of the treatment options available can restore normality. Fractures of the olecranon process in radial club hand are rare probably due to limited use of the limb.We report the case of a 35-year-old male with radial club hand who presented with ...

Complications of olecranon osteotomy in the treatment of distal humerus fracture [PDF]
Clinics in Shoulder and Elbow, 2022 Distal humerus fractures (DHFs) are challenging to treat due to the locally complex osseous and soft tissue anatomy. Adequate exposure of the articular surface of the distal humerus is crucial when performing an anatomical reconstruction of the elbow ...

Allograft reconstruction of olecranon after traumatic bone loss: a case report
JSES Reviews, Reports, and Techniques, 2022 Despite 2.2 million bone allografts conducted annually, their complication rate remains high, with recipients incurring infection, fracture, instability, and failure to incorporate. Nonunion rates in massive bone allografts—a bone segment ≥5 cm in length
