Background The elbow is the second most commonly dislocated joint in adults and up to 20% of dislocations are associated with a fracture. These injuries can be categorised into groups according to their mechanism and the structures injured. Methods This review includes a literature search of the current evidence and personal experiences of the authors in managing these injuries. Results All...
Terrible triad elbow injuries, consisting of fractures of the radial head and coronoid with ulnohumeral dislocation, are challenging to treat. They require a comprehensive understanding of the complex anatomy of the elbow to effectively treat all of the pathology and create a stable, congruent joint. The authors present a case of a terrible triad injury with avulsion of the triceps and flexor-p...
Approximately 75 percent of all fractures sustained by children occur in the upper extremities and frequently occur during a fall onto an outstretched hand. The majority of these injuries involve the wrist and forearm, but the elbow alone accounts for approximately 10 percent of all fractures in children. Elbow fractures in children are challenging because of the abundance of unossified cartila...
MRI has become the secondary procedure of choice, after plain-film x-ray, for evaluating elbow abnormalities. The modality can visualize ligament and tendon injuries, compressive or entrapment neuropathy, bone injuries, inflammatory and synovial conditions, and soft-tissue masses. Congenital abnormalities in the elbow are rare. The most common is radial head dislocation, which may affect one or...
Posterolateral rotatory instability (PLRI) is caused by injury to the lateral collateral ligament complex, usually from elbow dislocation; fracture dislocation, iatrogenic injury, or varus malalignment of the elbow. This is characterized by the external rotation of the radius and ulna in reference to the distal humerus. Further, it is manifested as posterior subluxation of the radial head in re...
A 12-year-old boy suffered injuries to his left forearm and elbow in a fall from a bicycle. Radiographs of the left elbow and forearm revealed a type IV Monteggia lesion (Fig. 1). During close manipulation, the greenstick radial fracture became partially displaced. However, length of the ulna and its alignment together with reduction of the radial head were satisfactorily obtained. Thereafter, ...
Posterior dislocation of the elbow joint with fracture of both the radial head and coronoid process, the so-called 'terrible triad', is a complex and difficult-to-treat injury. We report a case of a 34-year-old man with terrible triad of the elbow and associated injuries secondary to a fall. The patient was treated with radial head osteosynthesis, resection of the coronoid process fragments, an...
A severe elbow flexion contracture following a supracondylar fracture in a 13-yearold- male was treated with conventional physical therapy and an adjustable dynamic splint, the elbow Dynasplint(R). The Dynasplint was applied primarily at night. The patient achieved complete resolution of his flexion contracture. The Dynasplint incorporates the principles of adjustable, low-intensity force for p...
