Antecedentes: La rotura del tendón distal del bíceps braquial es una patología con una incidencia creciente, que puede ocasionar importantes alteraciones funcionales. Cuando la rotura es completa y el paciente activo, el tratamiento quirúrgico es de elección. Material y método: Varón de 47 años con dolor intenso y súbito en la fosa antecubital izquierda mientras levantaba peso. A la exploración, impotencia para la flexión y supinación activa del brazo izquierdo con pérdida de la silueta del bíceps braquial. La ecografía confirma el diagnóstico de rotura completa del tendón distal del bíceps braquial. Se decide tratamiento quirúrgico, realizando un abordaje único anterior  y reinsertando el tendón en su “footprint” radial con ayuda de un dispositivo de anclaje cortical. Resultados: A los 12 meses, el paciente presenta flexo-extensión y prono-supinación completa, sin encontrar dificultades para realizar las actividades de su vida diaria y laboral, con puntación de 100 puntos en el Mayo Elbow Performance Score (MEPS). Conclusión: La rotura del bíceps distal es una lesión típica de pacientes activos con una incidencia creciente. Aunque no se han evidenciado diferencias significativas entre las distintas opciones de reparación, en nuestra experiencia la utilización de dispositivos de anclaje cortical con un abordaje único anterior aporta unos resultados muy satisfactorios.

Combined Injuries

Einleitung: Kombinierte Verletzungen des Capitulum humeri und des Radiusköpfchens sind selten. Meist sind neben den osteocartilaginären Schäden am Gelenk auch Verletzungen der Kollateralbänder assoziiert. Behandlungsempfehlungen für diese seltenen schwerwiegenden Ellenbogenverletzungen fehlen. Studientyp: In einer retrospektiven Analyse werden fünf Fälle untersucht, bei denen die osteocartilaginären Verletzungen des Capitulum humeri durch den gleichen Zugang, der zur Versorgung des Radiusköpfchens verwendet wurde, versorgt wurden. Die Osteosynthese erfolgte mit Mini-Titanimplantaten z.T. kombiniert mit resorbierbaren Pins. Patienten und Methode: Zwischen 1996-1999 wurden fünf Patienten (vier Männer, eine Frau) mit einer Kombinationsverletzung von Radiuskopf und Capitulum humeri operativ stabilisiert. Das Durchschnittsalter beträgt 34 Jahre (31-40 Jahre). Alle Frakturen wurden über einen direkten radialen Zugang mittels 1.5mm oder 2.0mm Zugschrauben, zum Teil mit resorbierbaren Pins stabilisiert. Anschliessend wurden die Patienten radiologisch und klinisch gemäss dem Mayo-elbow-performance Score beurteilt. Resultate: Alle Patienten konnten persönlich durch einen nicht in die Initialtherapie involvierten Untersucher nach durchschnittlich 12.8 Monaten (8-24 Monate) nachuntersucht werden. 4/5 Patienten konnten bezüglich ihrer subjektiven Einschätzung befragt werden. Radiologische Zeichen einer Nekrose des Capitulum humeri oder Arthrosezeichen fanden sich nicht. Bei drei Patienten fanden sich periartikuläre Verkalkungen. Der range of motion beträgt durchschnittlich 124 Grad (Extension 5-30 Grad, Flexion 110-145 Grad) in drei von fünf Fällen waren Sekundäreingriffe zu Mobilitätsverbesserung nötig. Der Mayo-elbow-performance Score beträgt im Mittel 85 Punkte (range 70-100 Punkte). Schlussfolgerung: Die direkte Verschraubung mit Miniimplantaten zum Teil in Kombination mit resorbierbaren Pins ermöglicht eine stabile anatomische Rekonstruktion des Capitulum humeri durch den gleichen Zugang wie er für die Stabilisierung des Radiusköpfchens notwendig ist. Die transartikuläre Fixation der kleinen Schalenfragmente des Capitulum humeri erlaubt eine sichere interfragmentäre Kompression und damit eine frühfunktionelle Rehabilitation. Sekundäreingriffe zur Verbesserung der Gelenkbeweglichkeit waren in drei von fünf Fällen nötig.

<p><strong>Background:</strong> Intra articular distal humerus fractures are challenging and cumbersome to treat. Therefore osteosynthesis of such fractures is required. The aim of our study was to evaluate the functional outcome of intra articular distal humerus fractures AO type  13C by osteosynthesis using olecranon osteotomy with pre contoured locking compression plates in orthogonal plate configuration.</p><p><strong>Methods:</strong> Thirty patients were included in our study comprising of 18 males and 12 females. Mean age was 39.63 years with mean follow up of 34 weeks. 7 were AO type 13C1, 9 were AO type 13C2 and 14 were AO type 13C3. Osteosynthesis was done for all fractures by olecranon osteotomy approach. Functional outcome was assessed using mayo elbow performance score.</p><p><strong>Results:</strong> Mean flexion attained at the end of follow up was 127.56 degrees with mean extensor lag of 7.16 degrees. Mean arc of motion was 120.4 degrees. Mean mayo elbow performance score at the end of follow up was 80.36. Mayo elbow performance score in patients aged less than 40 years of age was not statistically significant as compared to patients more than 40 years of age. Functional outcome was also dependent on fracture subtype.</p><p><strong>Conclusions:</strong> Osteosynthesis of distal humerus fractures AO type 13C using pre contoured locking compression plates in orthogonal plate configuration by olecranon osteotomy provides excellent visualization of fracture and better functional outcome.</p>

From 2005 to 2009 we treated 112 patients with fractures of distal segment of the humerus, 83 (74,10%) of them were injured when falling from the height of its own growth, 8 (7,14%) - in an accident, 6 (5,35%) - a fall from a height, 13 (11,6%) - in sports, and two - as a result of violent acts. In 97 (87%) cases the fractures were closed, in 15 (13%) - open. 19 patients were treated conservatively and 93 - operatively. Functional results were evaluated using the Mayo elbow performance score (MEPS) in 78,37% of patients. Results of the conservative method: excellent and good - 46,66%, and in all patients with type A without displacement - in 100%. The fair results - in 33% and the poor in 20% - with type В and C. The results of operative treatment: excellent and good - 90,41%, the fair results - in 9,58%, no poor results. Initial prevent the oedema and bleeding into joints and soft tissues, adequate rigid fixation of fractures with the maximal restoration of the elbow joint congruent without additional immobilization and early active mobilization is essential to prevent the elbow stiffness and achieve a good outcomes.

Вступ. Перелом в ділянці ліктьового суглоба (ЛС) становить 5 - 6% в структурі всіх ушкоджень скелета, проте, частота незадовільних результатів лікування та утворення контрактури цієї зони сягає 20 - 25%. Матеріали і методи. Порівнювали ефективність розробки рухів під час реабілітації хворих, оперованих з приводу післятравматичної контрактури ЛС. Ретроспективний аналіз проведений у 69 пацієнтів з згинально-розгинальною контрактурою ЛС, яким виконували операцію артролізу. У пацієнтів 1-ї групи застосовували активну реабілітаційну програму без використання фіксуючих пристроїв; 2-ї групи – під час розробки рухів застосовували дві гіпсові шини у положенні максимального згинання та розгинання мобілізованого ЛС. Результати. Після оперативного втручання та рухової реабілітації кінцевий обсяг згинально-розгинальних рухів у пацієнтів 1-ї групи збільшився на 59,58º, 2-ї групи - на 70,7º. За шкалою Mayo Elbow Performance Score (MEPS), через 6 міс після операції стан пацієнтів 1-ї групи оцінений у середньому (75 ± 7,3) бала, 2-ї групи (84,6 ± 10,5) бала. Висновок. Лікування післятравматичної контрактури ЛС є вкрай складною, актуальною проблемою, потребує індивідуального підходу. При порівнянні ефективності реабілітації пацієнтів відзначене достовірне збільшення обсягу рухів та кращий функціональний результат за MEPS при використанні двох змінних гіпсових шин. Ключові слова: ліктьовий суглоб; післятравматична контрактура; рухова реабілітація.

Background To evaluate the sustainability of the early clinical and radiological outcomes of terrible triad injuries at long-term follow-up. Methods Twelve consecutive patients who underwent fixation of terrible triad injuries with minimum of seven years of follow-up. Functional and radiological outcomes at one year and final follow-up were compared. We assessed Mayo Elbow Performance Score, Quick-Disability of the Arm Shoulder and Hand, and modified-American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons Scores. Radiological evaluation included Broberg and Morrey classification and Hastings classification for heterotopic ossification. Results The mean age of patients was 55 years, with a median follow-up of 9.3 years. At final evaluation, mean flexion, extension, supination, and pronation were 145°, 6°, 82°, and 80°, respectively; mean Mayo Elbow Performance Score, modified-American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons Scores, and Quick-Disability of the Arm Shoulder and Hand scores were, respectively, 97, 92, and 4.9 points. There was no statistical difference between early and final follow-up range of motion, Mayo Elbow Performance Score, and Quick-Disability of the Arm Shoulder and Hand. However, radiological changes were observed in 66% of the patients at final follow-up. Two patients underwent reoperation, with final satisfactory results. Conclusion Our results suggested that using a standardized protocol, satisfactory clinical outcomes at early follow-up could be maintained over time. However, early complications and osteoarthritic changes at long-term follow-up can be expected. Level of evidence Therapeutic IV Cases series.

Abstract Background The aim of the study was to analyze the functional and radiological outcome of Monteggia-like lesions in adults with unreconstructible fracture of the radial head and treatment with radial head arthroplasty. Methods Twenty-seven patients (mean age 56 years; range 36 to 79 years) with a Monteggia-like lesion and treatment with radial head replacement were included in this retrospective study. Minimum follow-up was 2 years. Clinical assessment included the pain level with the visual analog scale in rest (VASR) and under pressure (VASP), range of motion, Mayo Elbow Performance Score (MEPS), and Disability of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand score (DASH). A detailed radiological evaluation was performed. Complications and revisions were also analyzed. Results After a mean follow-up period of 69 months (range, 24 to 170) the mean DASH score was 30 ± 24, the MEPS averaged 77 ± 20 points, the mean VASR was 2.1 ± 2.4, and VASP was 4.5 ± 3.5. Mean loss of extension was 24° ± 18 and flexion was 124° ± 20. Heterotopic ossifications were noted in 12 patients (44%). A total of 17 complications were noted in 11 patients (41%), leading to 15 revision surgeries in 9 patients (33%). Patients with a complicated postoperative course showed a worse clinical outcome compared with patients without complications measured by MEPS (68 ± 22 vs. 84 ± 16), DASH (49 ± 16 vs. 20 ± 22) and ulnohumeral motion (77° ± 31 vs. 117° ± 23). Conclusions Monteggia-like lesions with unreconstructible radial head fracture and treatment with radial head replacement are prone to complications and revisions.

Objectivo: Las roturas inveteradas o crónicas del tendón distal del biceps brachii son infrecuentes. Su tratamiento es complejo por el grado de retracción y mala calidad del tendón lesionado, que no permiten una sutura directa. Describimos la reconstrucción con aloinjerto de tendón de Aquiles liofilizado mediante una nueva técnica y presentamos nuestra experiencia y resultados. Material y método: Cuatro pacientes con actividades de alta demanda funcional, presentaban una rotura crónica (más de 3 meses de evolución) del tendón distal del biceps brachii. Se reconstruyó el tendón del biceps brachii con aloinjerto de Aquiles liofilizado mediante dos incisiones y reinserción en la tuberosidad bicipital con anclajes biodegradables.Se valoran el arco de movilidad activo, resultado de la Mayo Elbow Performance Score (MEPS), dolor, fuerza y reincorporación laboral. Resultados: A los 68 meses de seguimiento medio (rango: 36-88) todos los pacientes presentan un resultado satisfactorio, con un arco de movilidad activo completo, sin dolor y un resultado excelente de la MEPS. La fuerza en flexión y supinación fue similar con respecto al lado contralateral, si bien se objetivó un ascenso de la masa muscular y adelgazamiento del injerto en el caso con mayor seguimiento. Todos los pacientes se reincorporaron a su mismo puesto de trabajo sin restricciones a las 14 semanas. Un paciente presentó una neuroapraxia del nervio interóseo posterior que se recuperó de forma satisfactoria a los 3 meses. No existieron otras complicaciones ni se precisaron reintervenciones. Conclusiones: La reconstrucción con aloinjerto de tendón de Aquiles liofilizado en las roturas crónicas del tendón distal del biceps brachii presenta resultados satisfactorios, siendo una alternativa válida en pacientes con alta demanda funcional.

Seventeen Coonrad-Morrey semi-constrained total elbow replacements were performed on 14 Chinese rheumatoid patients. The elbows were reviewed retrospectively after a mean follow-up of 36 months (range 12–89 months.) After the operation, all patients were satisfied and there was no pain in 15 elbows. There was no radiological sign of loosening in the implanted prostheses and bone graft was incorporated in 93% of primary elbow replacements. The Mayo Elbow Performance Score was improved from an average of 40 (range 20–75) to an average of 93 (range 65–100). The arc of flexion was improved from an average of 89° (range 0°–125°) to 104° (range 35°–125°). The sizes of implants can be predicted accurately by the planning template in only four elbows (24%) and there were early complications in seven elbows (41%), with one prosthesis removed because of deep infection.

Aims The aim of the study was to analyze the results of primary tendon reinsertion in acute and chronic distal triceps tendon ruptures (DTTRs) in the general population. Patients and Methods A total of 28 patients were operated on for primary DTTR reinsertions, including 21 male patients and seven female patients with a mean age of 45 years (14 to 76). Of these patients, 23 sustained an acute DTTR and five had a chronic injury. One patient had a non-simultaneous bilateral DTTR. Seven patients had DTTR-associated ipsilateral fracture or dislocation. Comorbidities were present in four patients. Surgical treatment included transosseous and suture-anchors reinsertion in 22 and seven DTTRs, respectively. The clinical evaluation was performed using Mayo Elbow Performance Score (MEPS), the modified American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons Score (m-ASES), the Quick Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand score (QuickDASH), and the Medical Research Council (MRC) Scale. Results A total of 27 patients (28 DTTRs) were available for review at a mean of 47.5 months (12 to 204). The mean MEPS, QuickDASH, and m-ASES scores were 94 (60 to 100), 10 (0 to 52), and 94 (58 to 100), respectively. Satisfactory results were observed in 26 cases (93%). Muscle strength was 5/5 and 4/5 in 18 and ten DTTRs, respectively. One patient with chronic renal failure experienced a traumatic rerupture of distal triceps. One patient (1 DTTR) experienced mild elbow stiffness. Conclusion Primary repair of acute and chronic DTTRs in a general population yields satisfactory results in the majority of patients with a low rerupture rate.
