  • Title: A review of displaced olecranon fractures treated conservatively.
    Author: Parker MJ, Richmond PW, Andrew TA, Bewes PC.
    Journal: J R Coll Surg Edinb; 1990 Dec; 35(6):392-4. PubMed ID: 2086804.
    Abstract:
    Twenty-two patients with a total of 23 fractures of the olecranon were reviewed after an average period of 26 months (range 5-96 months). All fractures were either comminuted, transverse or oblique fractures with separation of the fragments and all were treated without operation by early active mobilization within 10 days of fracture. Results compare favourably with cases treated by operation.
