ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
To evaluate the clinical results of Acutrak screw fixation for ulnar olecranon fractures. MATERIALS ANDMETHODS:
We reviewed 15 cases of ulnar olecranon fractures which were treated with Acutrak screws from February 2003 to September 2007. Follow-up period is from 12 months to 42 months. We used Mayo classification. Radiologic results were analyzed according to step-off, gap, reduction loss, and functional results were analyzed according to pain and ROM. We analyzed union time, operation time, incision size and complications.RESULTS:
In functional results, there were 3 good cases out of 3 Mayo type IA, 8 good cases and 2 fair cases out of 10 type IIA, 1 fair case and 1 poor case out of 2 type IIB. In radiologic results, there was 1 case of reduction loss. Average union time was 9.4 weeks, average operation time was 24 minutes and average incision size was 1.8 cm.CONCLUSION:
We conclude that Acutrak screw fixation can be a treatment option for olecranon fracture of Mayo type IA and IIA.
