Overall, this report demonstrates that operations involving a nonmassive allograft about the olecranon process may display minimal side effects in comparison to massive allografts, specifically regarding nonunion. Furthermore, this operation allows for improved range of motion after bone loss, allowing the patient to partake in activ...

Shave and disinfect the corresponding surfaces of two mice. Make a skin incision from the olecranon to the knee joint, bluntly separate the subcutaneous fascia, and form a 0.5 cm free skin flap. First, use a 5-0 Vicryl suture to sew the olecranon and knee together to reduce skin tensi...
Various sites have been used for harvesting the grafts' tissues. Grafts can be obtained from the iliac wing or crest, the proximal or distal tibia and radius, the proximal humerus, the distal ulna, ribs, calcaneus, and the proximal olecranon [36–41]. These sources each have advantages and...
The axis (C2) contains a prominent process called the Blank___, which acts as a pivot for the rotation of both the atlas and skull. Multiple choice question. dens The thick spinous processes of lumbar vertebrae provide extensive surface area for the attachment of ___. back muscles...
Autografts are performed by taking bone segment from iliac crest, olecranon process etc., iliac crest being the most popular choice. Autografts have osteoconductive and osteoinductive properties due to the presence of live cells and growth factors. A major limitation of autografts is the amount of ...
or during any other activities where such protection is desired. Typically the device may be positioned between the ulna's head 62 and the tip 60 of the ulna's olecranon process. The device includes a laterally and medially located strips 64 and 66 respectively of flexible envelopes containing...
