Theulnais complete in cattle. Proximally, it articulates with the humerus within the elbow joint. Distally, it articulates with the ulnar carpal bone within the radiocarpal joint. Fracture of theulnawithout fracture of the radius is uncommon. When it occurs, it usually involves theolecranon. ...
Clinical and functional outcomes were assessed at follow-up to determine what differences exist between fracture patterns. Statistics were generated using Chi-squared tests for categorical variables and one-way ANOVA tests for numerical variables.Results While all patients ultimately healed, time to ...
Results: A total of 64 children with unstable radius and ulna fractureswere included in the study. The age range was 6 to 15 years with average age of 10.41 years. 47 were male and 17 were female. The averagetime of radiological union was 7 weeks and K-wires were removed at 8 weeks ...
Objective To investigate the curative effects of interlocking intramedullary nailing in the treatment of ulna and radius fractures.Methods 11 cases of ulna and radius fracture were treated by closed reduction or limited incision followed by the fixation of interlocking intramedullary nailing(produced by Sm...
The shaft (or body) is the long segment of bone between the brachial tuberosity and the inflated distal end of the ulna. From: Human Osteology (Third Edition), 2012 About this pageAdd to MendeleySet alert On this page On this page
Evidence identifying risk factors for refracture, however, has not been summarised in a systematic review. Guidance for counselling patients and parents to minimise the risk of refracture is limited. The aims of this study are to 1) to determine if casting time 6 weeks or less is a risk ...
Result Bone callus could be seen on the radius spectimen in various degrees when the rabbits were killed at 1st. 2nd, 4th and 6th week, particularly in the last week. The average maximum destructive load on the fracture tip is higher to the control, and there is significant difference (P...
The periosteum including the inner cambium layer plays an important role in fracture healing. We tested the hypothesis that preservation of the corticoperiosteal attachment may accelerate healing at osteotomy sites after ulna-shortening osteotomy. Methods We performed a chart review of 32 patients who ...
Pins are inserted both proximal and distal to the fracture site and fixed to the ulna as well, thus utilizing it as an internal fixation rod. We hypothesize that using this technique will give favorable results regarding the functional and radiographic outcome in unstable distal radius fractures. ...
Experimental study of fatigue fracture healing is inherently difficult due to the lack of noninvasive models. In this study, we hypothesized that repeated cyclic loading of the rat ulna results in a fatigue fracture. The aim of the study was to develop a noninvasive long bone fatigue fracture ...
