The proximal ulna dorsal angulation: A radiographic study

Journal of Shoulder and Elbow Surgery, 2010
Recognition of the proximal ulna dorsal angulation (PUDA) is important for anatomic reduction of proximal ulna fractures, nonunions, malunions, or osteotomies, especially when using newer straight precontoured ulnar plates. The purpose of this study was to characterize the PUDA in 50 patients with bilateral elbow radiographs.Commercial software was ...

Proximal Ulna Fractures

Zeitschrift fur Orthopadie und Unfallchirurgie, 2012
Proximal ulna fractures are common injuries in the upper extremity. The severity of injury ranges from isolated olecranon fractures to complex elbow fracture dislocations. Relevant anatomic features of the proximal ulna for fracture management are presented in the first part of this article.

(iii) Proximal ulna fractures

Orthopaedics and Trauma, 2012
Abstract Fractures to the proximal ulna account for only 1% of all fractures. However, appreciation of the pathoanatomy of the different fracture patterns is essential for the treating surgeon. This review discusses the classification, injury patterns, treatment and outcome of fractures to the olecranon, coronoid process and adult Monteggia fracture ...

The anatomy of the proximal ulna

Journal of Shoulder and Elbow Surgery, 2007
The posterior border of the ulna is the most important bony landmark for all dorsal surgical approaches and the guideline for open reduction, internal fixation of displaced comminuted fractures of the proximal ulna. We examined 74 cadaveric specimens to evaluate the anatomy of the proximal ulna, especially the course of the posterior border, the point ...

Surgical treatment of proximal ulna nonunion

La Chirurgia degli Organi di Movimento, 2008
We reviewed our experience in the surgical treatment of 12 cases of proximal ulna nonunion. The primary injuries were 2 fracture-dislocations of the olecranon, 6 Monteggia lesions and 3 isolated fractures of the proximal ulna. According to the type of primary injury and its anatomical site, the nonunions were classified into 2 groups, considering that ...

Atrophic Nonunions of the Proximal Ulna

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 2003
Ten consecutive patients were treated by one surgeon for an atrophic nonunion of the proximal ulna. There were six men and four women with an average age of 47 years. Nine of the initial injuries were fracture-dislocations (seven posterior Monteggia lesions and two transolecranon fracture-dislocations) and one was a fracture of the proximal ulnar and ...

The pediatric proximal ulna: a radiographic study

Archives of Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgery, 2020
The proximal ulna has been comprehensively described in the anatomic literature and imaging studies. However, to the best of our knowledge, the anatomy of the proximal ulna in children has not been fully described in the literature.The present study was conducted on 189 children aged between 0 and 12 years (4.7 ± 2.7) by analysis of lateral X-rays of ...

Proximal Ulna Fractures

2019
Fractures of the olecranon are common in adults and can be complex lesions. Triceps pull is acting as a dislocating force. The soft tissue envelope at the back of the proximal ulna is only tenuous. In fractures following direct trauma, accompanying soft tissue lesions are common.

Management of Fractures of the Proximal Ulna

Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, 2013
Proximal ulna fractures can be difficult to manage because of the elbow's complex anatomy. Advances in understanding elbow anatomy and biomechanics, however, have led to new insights. Careful preoperative evaluation is critical because failure to restore normal anatomy of the proximal ulna could have a detrimental effect on postoperative elbow function.
