Nailing vs. plating in comminuted proximal ulna fractures – a biomechanical analysis [PDF]
BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2020 Background Comminuted proximal ulna fractures are severe injuries with a high degree of instability. These injuries require surgical treatment, usually angular stable plating or double plating is performed.

Use of intra-medullary stacked nailing in the reduction of proximal plastic deformity in a pediatric Monteggia fracture: a case report [PDF]
Journal of Medical Case Reports, 2011 Introduction In a Monteggia fracture dislocation, it is important to reduce the ulnar fracture completely. Extensive plastic deformation of the proximal ulna may make reduction by closed manipulation impossible.

Outcomes of osteoarticular ulna allograft for the reconstruction of proximal ulna tumour: a retrospective series of 13 patients [PDF]
Bone & Joint OpenAims: The ulna is an extremely rare location for primary bone tumours of the elbow in paediatrics. Although several reconstruction options are available, the optimal reconstruction method is still unknown due to the rarity of proximal ulna tumours.

Dorsal apex curve of the proximal ulna
Acta Orthopaedica et Traumatologica Turcica, 2020 Objective: To analyze the apexes and angulations along the curvature in the posterior border of the proximal ulna–termed the “dorsal apex curve” (DAC)–using the computer-aided design software. Methods: Eight pairs of normal cadaveric ulnae were analyzed.
