Functional outcomes after fixation of "terrible triad" elbow fracture dislocations.
Historically, the published literature on "terrible triad" injuries has shown a high rate of unacceptable results. The use of systematic treatment protocols may improve functional outcome. The authors performed a retrospective study of all patients aged 18 years or older who underwent surgical treatment for "terrible triad" elbow fracture dislocation at their institution over a period 7 years. ...
متن کاملSevere injury of bilateral elbow joints with unilateral terrible triad of the elbow and unilateral suspected terrible triad of the elbow complicated with olecranon fracture: one case report.
Terrible triad of the elbow is characterized as posterior dislocation of the elbow joint accompanied by the fractures of the radial head and coronoid process of the ulna, which is rarely seen in clinical practice, especially because the mild fracture is barely detected by imaging method In this study, we reported one case of serious complex bilateral elbow injury, presenting with unilateral typ...
متن کاملComplex Elbow Dislocations and the “Terrible Triad” Injury
Background The elbow is the second most commonly dislocated joint in adults and up to 20% of dislocations are associated with a fracture.

Methods This review includes a literature search of the current evidence and personal experiences of the authors in managing these injuries. Results All...
متن کاملCurrent treatment concepts for "terrible triad" injuries of the elbow.
Elbow fracture-dislocations destabilize the elbow, preventing functional rehabilitation. If left untreated, they commonly result in functional compromise and poor outcomes. The "terrible triad" injury is classically described as a combination of a coronoid process and radial head fractures, as well as a posterolateral elbow dislocation. Surgical treatment to restore stable elbow range of motion...
متن کاملTerrible triad of the elbow.
PURPOSE To review epidemiological characteristics and treatment outcomes of the terrible triad of the elbow. METHODS Records of 18 cases of the terrible triad of the elbow occurring in 8 women and 8 men aged 17 to 77 (mean, 45) years were reviewed. The epidemiology and various treatment approaches and functional outcomes were recorded. The mean follow-up period was 13.6 (range, 4-38) months. ...
