Olecranon osteotomy fixation using a novel device: the olecranon sled.
A posterior approach to the elbow utilizing an olecranon osteotomy has been shown to provide excellent visualization of the distal humerus articular surface. However, many bony stabilization and fixation methods for the olecranon osteotomy are usually prominent, frequently symptomatic, and often require a second operation for removal. This paper evaluates the use of an innovative device, the ol...

The 31 year old male patient had a history of previous epidermoid cysts in the head/ neck and after en block excision there has been no recurrence at 4 years.
متن کاملBiomechanical Testing of an Olecranon Osteotomy Nail
INTRODUCTION Comminuted distal humerus fractures often require large access to the distal humerus for anatomic reconstruction of the joint surface. In these cases an olecranon osteotomy is usually performed, allowing the triceps muscle to be moved out of the way with clear access to the distal humerus. After fixing the distal humerus, the olecranon is often fixed with two k-wires inserted longi...
متن کاملForward dislocation of the elbow without fracture of the olecranon.

Forward dislocation of both forearm bones without fracture of the olecranon is in fact extremely rare. The...
متن کاملElbow medial ulnar collateral ligament insufficiency alters posteromedial olecranon contact.
