Abstract

Proximal ulna fractures are relatively common upper limb injuries, which may represent fragility fractures or result from high-energy trauma. These include fractures of the olecranon, coronoid and associated radial head dislocations. A wide variety of treatment options are available for the management of these injuries that makes the selection of most appropriate treatment difficult. We aim to provide a brief overview of the treatment options for such injuries.
