Comminuted Olecranon Fractures (Mayo IIB): Is Dynamic Tension Band Wiring Enough?

Journal of Orthopaedic Trauma | 2023 | Garrett W. Esper, Christopher G. Herbosa, Michael J. Moses, Kenneth A. Egol

Objectives: To compare the efficacy and outcomes of dynamic tension band wiring (TBW) and plate and screw (PS) fixation of comminuted (Mayo Type IIB) olecranon fractures. Design: Retrospective cohort. Setting: Academic medical center. Patients/Participants: Forty-one patients with Mayo type IIB (OTA/AO 2U1C) olecranon fractures were involved in the study. Intervention: Patients...

Olecranon fractures: A biomechanical comparison of three tension band wiring fixation methods on bone models

Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery | 2023 | Emre Calisal, Levent Uğur

Purpose This study aimed to compare the biomechanical pull-out strength of the three different tension band wiring (TBW) methods employed to fix transverse olecranon fractures on bone models. Methods Three different fixation models were created in groups of seven synthetic olecranon fractured bone models. The first technique was fixed the olecranon with the traditional TBW meth...

TENSION BAND WIRING (TBW) OF DISTAL END CLAVICLE : A FORGOTTEN TECHNIQUE : SIMPLER, CHEAPER AND BETTER

Orthopaedic Journal of Sports Medicine | 2020 | S Zufahrizzat, AS Nadzim, O Saifudin, Rauf A Abdul

Clavicle fracture is a common injury, and can be classified into middle third, medial third, and distal third fractures. Only 10-15% of clavicle fracture occur in the distal third segment. Neer classified the distal clavicle fracture into five types ; type II and V are unstable and requiring fixation . Various common methods of stabilizations are introduced such as K-wiring , t...
