저자들은 tension band wiring을 이용하여 주두골골절을 치료하여 그 결과를 분석하여 tension band wiring이 주두골골절의 치료에 매우 효과적이란 결론을 얻었기에 보고하는 바이다.
Treatment of olecranon fractures by prolonged immobilization often results in limited elbow motion. With the use of tension band wiring, anatomical reduction was obtainable, and only a short period of immobilization was needed. We reviewed the cases of 17 patients who underwent surgical treatment of the olecranon fracture. All patients were treated by tension band wiring. In the over-all series, we were able to obtain 53 per cent excellent, 30 per cent good, and 17 per cent fair results.
