Treatment of neglected elbow dislocations with combination of speed V-Y muscleplasty and intra-articular injection of hydrocorticosone.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Neglected dislocations of the elbow are not uncommon in developing countries. We report case series of 3 cases of neglected dislocations of elbow. All the three cases were treated by combination of Speeds procedure and intraarticular injection of 25mg of hydrocorticosone acetate in 5 ml of distilled water. Mean time from injury was 5 months and mean follow-up was 10 months. According to Mayo Elbow Performance Index, 2 outcomes were excellent and 1 outcome was good.

متن کاملSynchronous fractures of the trochlea and the radial neck without elbow dislocation.
Fractures of the articular surface of the distal end of the humerus (i.e., of the capitellum and the trochlea) are rather uncommon injuries. Fractures of the capitellum account for 1% of all elbow fractures and about 6% of all distal humeral fractures. Fractures of the trochlea are usually encountered as part of more complex intra-articular fractures of the distal end of the humerus, disrupting...
متن کاملEvaluation of intra-articular injection of bupivacaine in combination with morphine, methylprednisolone, or alone on pain after knee arthroscopy
Background and Aims: Knee arthroscopy is used to diagnose and treat intra-articular lesions. The control of acute pain after arthroscopy requires the use of a method with the least side effects and most efficacies. This study aimed to compare the sedative effect of bupivacaine in combination with morphine, methylprednisolone, or alone in knee arthroscopy after intra-articular injection. Materi...
متن کاملExperimental Study on Protective Role of NSAID on Articular Cartilage Destruction in Septic Arthritis
Background: Surgical drainage and antibiotic therapy are the cornerstones of treatment protocols in septic arthritis; however, in some circumstances, the diagnosis and initiation of treatment may be retarded by slow disease progression or the time when the patient’s condition precludes early surgery. Therefore, it is beneficial to find ways to reduce the amount of articular injury. This study a...
متن کاملCorrective Osteotomy for Intra-Articular Distal Humerus Malunion
Background: An intra-articular distal humerus malunion can be disabling. To improve function, reduce pain and/ or prevent further secondary osteoarthritis an intra-articular corrective osteotomy can be considered. Herein we present the indications, practical guidelines for pre- operative planning and surgical technique. Subsequently, we provide long-term results in a small series. Meth...
