AND DISLOCATION
Presented By:
Dr. Siddharth Dubey
Clinical Findings:
Radiocapitellar Relation:
Best defined by a true lateral view of the elbow.
A line drawn down the long axis of the radius bisects the
capitellum of the humerus regardless of the degree of
flexion or extension of the elbow.
MANAGEMENT
NON OPERATIVE
1).Reduction of the Ulnar Fracture:
NON OPERATIVE :
Lateral swelling.
Clinical Findings:
The appearance of the limb with a type IV lesion is similar
to that of a type I lesion. More swelling and pain are present
because of the magnitude of force required to create this
complex injury.
Indications
Ulnar Fracture:
If the fracture seems to be unstable on the initial films or at
the initial, internal fixation using an intramedullary pinning
technique is done. This can be accomplished by using a
single pin of sufficient size or multiple small pins, nesting
them within the medullary canal to provide stability.
COMPLICATIONS
Myositis ossificans.
Ossification around the radial head and
neck appears as a thin ridge of bone in a
cap like distribution and may be
accompanied by other areas resembling
sesamoid bones.
