A Prospective Randomised Control Trial for Comparison Between olecranon Lock Plate And Tension Band Wiring In Transverse olecranon Fractures
Introduction: Olecranon fractures are frequently encountered in the practice of orthopaedic surgery with a prevalence of 60% among patients with a fracture of the proximal ulna. Generally the treatment of choice for displaced olecranon fracture is open reduction and internal fixation. We report the result of a prospective Randomised Control Trial of Forty patients, who were treated either by Te...
متن کاملTreatment of nonunion of olecranon fractures.
We report the results in 24 consecutive patients treated from 1976 to 1991 for nonunion of olecranon fractures. Their mean age was 42 years, and the mean interval from fracture to treatment for nonunion was 19 months. Management was by rehabilitation and activity as tolerated for three, continued immobilisation for one, and operative treatment for 20. Operations included excision of the olecran...
متن کاملTreatment of comminuted olecranon fractures with olecranon plate and structural iliac crest graft.
Severely comminuted olecranon fractures are challenging injuries. Commonly used tension band wiring exerts excessive compressive forces causing olecranon shortening, joint incongruity and humeral trochlea subluxation. We report a retrospective study of 3 patients who underwent surgery for a severely comminuted olecranon fracture, with open reduction and fixation with a bridging rigid locking pl...
متن کاملManagement of Olecranon Fracture in a Horse
Abstract: Case Description- Olecranon fractures are frequently encountered in horses especially in foals. External trauma due to kicks or falls is the most common cause of the fracture. Treatment modalities of olecranon fractures including prolonged stall rest and surgical reconstruction of the different types of fractures have been proposed with different outcomes. Clinical findin...
متن کاملMethods of Fixation of Olecranon Fractures
This study was designed to compare the rigidity of the more commonly used techniques of internal fIxation of fractures of the olecranon. Cadaveric elbow joints were mounted in a jig and confrolled osteotomies performed to simulate transverse, oblique or comminuted fractures. Five techniques of internal fixation were tested by measuring movement at the fracture site after applying a bending mome...
