[orthoforum на weborto.net]

Dear colleguaes! I almost sure this elbow after dislocation and clouse 
readuction treatment.Despite pure quality of x-ray picture
I suspect small detachment fragment from coronal process.He is lucky guy 
that haven't instability.
In other side stiff elbow isn't happy prise in the life. In this case I 
would like to go to open arthrorisis(Column operation ) release anterior 
joint capsula and after that if you achieve range of movment good on the 
operation table can use physiotherapy-active assistance exersise and 
Univerasal elbow brace fixation. If you have not acceptable movement in 
the operation ( I mean in this case flexion extension 70-150 wiil be good)
I strongly recomend to use hinge solution monolateral or frame. Not 
necessary insert axial KW.You can use exteranal hing in the ORTHOFIX or 
COMPAS apparatus.
Good luck,Michael.
