Elbow fractures: Current concepts

Nathan D. Orvets, Aaron M. Chamberlain

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

Establishing a stable and congruent joint that allows for early elbow range of motion improves outcomes in elbow fracture management. This review highlights advances in both operative and nonoperative management of common elbow fracture patterns. Advances in imaging, injury classification, surgical techniques, and implants continue to contribute to improved outcomes in elbow fracture management.
