Olecranon Fractures

Olecranon fractures are common and often require surgical treatment when displaced. Traditional methods of stabilization using tension band wire fixation and plate fixation achieve adequate union and function but are associated with a high rate of re-operation and wound problems because of prominent metalwork. The purpose of the present article is to describe an all suture technique for fixation of simple olecranon fractures that maintains inter-fragmentary compression, provides bony union and reduces the rate of re-operation caused by prominent metalwork.

Olecranon Fractures

Purpose: Several types of surgical methods from tension band wiring to plate fixation are used in olecranon fractures. In comminuted olecranon fractures, plate fixation is recommended as it is difficult to obtain stable fixation of the bone fragments and joint congruency. The authors performed operations using compression locking plate for olecranon fractures corresponding to Mayo classification IIB and IIIB, and report the radiologic and functional results.Methods: Twenty-one patients who underwent plate fixation surgery for comminuted olecranon fractures at our hospital from September 2011 to April 2019 were enrolled in this study. Patients were retrospectively analyzed for at least 1 year. The classification of olecranon fracture was performed using the Mayo classification. For the analysis of the postoperative results, radiological union time, postoperative range of motion, complications, and functional results based on Mayo elbow performance score (MEPS) were evaluated.Results: The union was achieved in all cases and three posttraumatic arthritis were observed at the final follow-up. The average range of motion was 134.3° in flexion, –9.8° in extension. The mean MEPS was 93.1. There was no statistically significant difference in MEPS between the group that used technique of interfragmentary fixation and the group that did not (p=0.534).Conclusion: Surgical treatment using a locking compression plate fixation in comminuted olecranon fracture resulted in excellent functional results. Restoration of articular surface using Kirschner wire or interfragmentary screw between small bone fragments is considered a useful method for obtaining good functional results.

The recent development of the scanning electron microscope has added great impetus to the study of ultrastructural details of normal human ossicles. A thorough description of the ultrastructure of the human ossicles is required in order to determine changes associated with disease processes following medical or surgical treatment.Human stapes crura were obtained at the time of surgery for clinical otosclerosis and from human cadaver material. The specimens to be examined by the scanning electron microscope were fixed immediately in the operating room in a cold phosphate buffered 2% gluteraldehyde solution, washed with Ringers, post fixed in cold 1% osmic acid and dehydrated in graded alcohol. Specimens were transferred from alcohol to a series of increasing concentrations of ethyl alcohol and amyl acetate. The tissue was then critical point dried, secured to aluminum stubs and coated with gold, approximately 150A thick on a rotating stage in a vacuum evaporator. The specimens were then studied with the Kent-Cambridge S4-10 Scanning Electron Microscope at an accelerating voltage of 20KV.
