Complex Elbow Fracture-Dislocations: An Algorithmic Approach to Treatment.
Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons 2024 April 31
Elbow stability arises from a combination of bony congruity, static ligamentous and capsular restraints, and dynamic muscular activation. Elbow trauma can disrupt these static and dynamic stabilizers leading to predictable patterns of instability; these patterns are dependent on the mechanism of injury and a progressive failure of anatomic structures. An algorithmic approach to the diagnosis and treatment of complex elbow fracture-dislocation injuries can improve the diagnostic assessment and reconstruction of the bony and ligamentous restraints to restore a stable and functional elbow. Achieving optimal outcomes requires a comprehensive understanding of pertinent local and regional anatomy, the altered mechanics associated with elbow injury, versatility in surgical approaches and fixation methods, and a strategic rehabilitation plan.
