Elbow fractures are any broken bone in or near the elbow joint and include olecranon fractures, supracondylar humerus fractures and radial head fractures. [1] The elbow joint is formed by three different bones: the ulna, radius, and humerus that permit the joint to move like a hinge and allow a person to straighten and bend their arm and these bones are connected by tendons, ligaments, and ...

Pipkin: posterior dislocation of hip with avulsion fracture of fragment of femoral head by the ligamentum teres: impact to the knee with the hip flexed (dashboard injury) Type II-V: Posterior Fracture Dislocations at Wheeless' Textbook of Orthopaedics online Pott's fracture [4] Percival Pott: bimalleolar fracture ...
Osteosynthesis (open reduction and internal fixation) of the ulnar shaft is considered the standard of care in adults. It promotes stability of the radial head dislocation and allows very early mobilisation to prevent stiffness. [5] The elbow joint is particularly susceptible to loss of motion. [citation needed]
Olecranon fracture is a fracture of the bony portion of the elbow. The injury is fairly common and often occurs following a fall or direct trauma to the elbow. The olecranon is the proximal extremity of the ulna which is articulated with the humerus bone and constitutes a part of the elbow articulation. Its location makes it vulnerable to ...
Because dislocations make the knee unstable, 15% of patellas will re-dislocate. [30] Patellar dislocations often occur when the knee is in full extension and sustains a trauma from the lateral to medial side. [31] Elbow: Posterior dislocation, 90% of all elbow dislocations [32] Wrist: Lunate and Perilunate dislocation most common [33]
Jacob deGrom had reconstructive surgery to repair a torn ulnar collateral ligament in his right elbow Monday, and Texas Rangers manager Bruce Bochy said the procedure went well. The typical ...
