The elbow joint needs to be both mobile and stable to exercise its hinge function, which is the key to a normal upper limb. Loss of motion in the elbow joint leads to an exponential functional handicap. Elbow trauma is a common cause of elbow stiffness. Open elbow arthrolysis with release of the capsule has been demonstrated to be a very useful treatment. Arthroscopic elbow arthrolysis has now ...
BACKGROUND Elbow dislocations can be classified as simple or complex. Simple dislocations are characterized by the absence of fractures, while complex dislocations are associated with fractures of the radial head, olecranon, or coronoid process. The majority of patients with these complex dislocations are treated with open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF), or arthroplasty in case of a non...
Contracture of the collateral ligaments is considered to be an important factor in post-traumatic stiffness of the elbow. We reviewed the results of isolated release of the medial collateral ligament in a series of 14 patients with post-traumatic loss of elbow flexion treated between 1998 and 2002. There were nine women and five men with a mean age of 45 years (17 to 76). They were reviewed at ...
any reason it is found impossible to achieve this ideal, there are two alternatives: open reduction, or immohilisation in the unreduced position. Open reduction is widely favoured at the present time. It is a common experience, however, that anatomical reduction gained by operation is followed by varying degrees of stiffness of the elbow, often severe and permanent. It is the object of this pap...
BACKGROUND Distal humeral fractures have traditionally been managed with surgical approaches that disrupt the extensor mechanism. We hypothesized that an extensor mechanism-on approach for operative fixation of distal humeral fractures with parallel or orthogonal plate constructs would allow excellent healing, a motion arc of the elbow exceeding 100°, and maintenance of extensor mechanism stren...
INTRODUCTION Median nerve entrapment in the cases of posterior dislocation of elbow is a rare entity. The diagnosis is usually delayed. We describe here a case of median nerve entrapment in the posteromedial dislocation of elbow in a 10-year-old male child and the role of ultrasonography (USG) in localizing the median nerve in the elbow. The nerve release was done by osteotomy of medial epicond...
Elbow joint stiffness is a common complication following supracondylar humerus fractures. In prospective study, dynamics of establishing a full range of motion in the elbow joint following the treatment of supracondylar humerus fractures were assessed, together with the effects of physical therapy on improvement in the range of motion. Two groups of patients were observed. Physical therapy was ...
To cite: Crosswell S, Mbah CA, Hussain A, et al. BMJ Case Rep Published online: [please include Day Month Year] doi:10.1136/ bcr-2013-202420 DESCRIPTION A 6-year-old boy, who fell while playing at school, presented to the fracture clinic with a suspected right distal radius fracture. On examination, the child was tender over the dorsal aspect of the distal radius and also had pain and stiffness...
